Games Design Final assessment reminder

Games Unit Final Assessment

This Unit will finish with the planning and execution of a game which teaches or 'shows' us something.

The intent of the unit such as it stands is to develop the game within the confines of its platform restrictions and the time available.

Our focus must needs be on the processes inherent in MYP Technology. In the case of this unit we have focused on: Plan, Create, and Evaluate.

Be sure that as you edit your work before submission that you have considered it against the planning tool provided and the exemplars.

A single final post on your blog for each of the three sections with your notes and final reflections is required.

Have you...

• started test filming and playing with your movie program?
• put your evaluation piece together?
• finalized that planning piece with dates?
• kept up your posting before and after each bit of work?
• done a final back-planning of your games investigation?
