Feedback thoughts

So before I looked at these articles I first thought about feedback. On the one hand I find feedback very important as it really helps to see what mistakes you have in your work and learn form them but in other circumstances I think feedback can be too harsh and can put a person off something before they have every started.

The first article that I read was called"a fixed mindset". This really opened up my eyes to how a fixed mindset can have dreadful consequences for people. It also got me thinking about myself and how I may have a fixed mindset too. I like to think that I am amazing at all stuff to do with video and that and when I get criticism I just brush it off and say their jealous of me but after reading this I am now open to more criticism. I also firmly believe with the point made in the article that always praising a child can make them fragile . This sis so true as so many people will grow up and not be used to any sort of criticism no matter how small it is and when it happens they will not know how to react. From reading this I have changed how I think and I hope to be more open to criticism and not give out to people for mistakes so quickly.


The second article that I read was called "why rejection hurts so much". This article kinda resounded with me as I have been in the past a few times. it really helped me to hear that the greatest damage rejection causes is self-damage. I used to always look at myself and what I did wrong after a rejection but this article has changed my mindset on that. from now on I will try to see how great of a person I am and when I do get rejected I wont get too down on myself as I know there will be people out there who will appreciate me for who I am, I just got to find them.

As you should already know I am doing the create with code side of unity this term and I really want improve my overall game coding skills. I am happy with progress so far but I still have a long way to go.                                                 Sound and effects The first tutorial was actually pretty easy but it was really enjoyable. I had tried to add in sound effects to my final game last semester but it failed badly . this tutorial really simplified the process of adding audio to a game and made it actually really easy to follow.  I really enjoyed the quiz at the end of this tutorial even though I got one answer wrong which annoyed me a bit .                         ...

Hello guys and welcome back to my blog. For today's reading we had to continue from the research we were doing last week but thew difference was we had to a pply thematic analysis  to your resources and group common themes this week.   The first thing I did was read all the steps very carefully. I liked how it went into detail in discursive writing as that is something I am very passionate about, I used to have a blog years ago when I would be discursive and discuss manchester united games but I gave that up . I completely agree with the point about supporting your argument with evidence as if you do not how is anyone going to trust that what you said is credible  summaries to me are vital , I sometimes read the summary of an article first and that usually gives me a good outlook on if this article will be worth reading or not. today I went and found more resources online which I will add to my matrix. I...

Welcome back to my blog guys. I was kind of hoping there would be no bogs to do this term at all as they were pretty stressful last semester but I will get on with it and give it my best shot. This module actually sounds very interesting and I ma excited to keep researching and adding to my parts of the book. I spent way over 3 hours doing research for this. My two chosen topics are key components of game design and stages of game design. these are two topics that kind of excite me and make me want to dive into these blogs head first. the first thing I did was list all the who, what ,why ,where and when. these questions actually really helped me get a focus on what I was researching these are my answers who- I started my who by finding all about the people behind the games, I found out that first game was made in 1972 and it was all very interesting what- for the what part I went into detail about  what are the key elements in games . in my opinion a story and good visuals a...
