Fifth Day

I didn't get to write yesterday because I was very busy. In the morning Jadry and I created an organization page for WWWF on TakingItGlobal and then created a Globaloria page on MySpace. We already have 7 friends from the MCTC and RTC classes. We plan to use the page to draw some publicity to the program and to allow the students to share their work amongst each other. (an upgrade from the wiki, Steward commented). In the afternoon, we learned to code games with Rebecca, the head of research. We looked at the group Experimental Ninjas' game, Zeitgeist, spent a while playing it (and yet could not beat it!) and the coded the game based on a series of categories such as design, functionality, presentation, etc. We met as a group to discuss disparities in our results and to clarify the reasons for them. We made a few changes to the questions asked in the coding and now are going to code a few other games today. Overall, it was a fun and busy first day back from Bermuda!
