growth and mindset

for this post I will attempt the extra credit growth and mindset task. I read "this article" . this article was very interesting altogether. i completely agree that being graded in school can be very emotional on certain people and can hurt a persons confidence.
I agree that not everyone who gets top marks can be unhappy with them as they do not understand why it was so easy and there is usually a huge divide between the top and bottom people in the class from their grades. grades can be a good way to control students like it says in this article but overall they just cause arguments between students and make people who just cant get the top marks ever even if they studied for days feel really bad about themselves.
I like the teacher who set up meetings with them this should benefit the students and make them feel more comfortable in the class. overall this extra credit article was very interesting to read and has changed my view on all things to do with gradings in school and colleges.

    Hi Aaron,

    I completely agree with the points that you have made in this post. I haven't actually done a 'growth/mindset' reading since the very first one, so it was nice to read over this and have a little break from game design. I believe this week is our last week of extra credits, so you've inspired me to do a growth and mindset one now!

Unity tutuorial 06

Hello guys and welcome back to my blog. For this blog I will talk about my experience with the unity tutorial 6 . 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 .                         ...

Reading 2

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...

Reading week 6

so for todays reading/ writing assignment we had to complete our body paragraphs. as you can see from last weeks blog post I had some major issues in finding credible sources and getting proper quotes I could use. I went on to get a look at what every else had done but only like two other people have actually wrote a paragraph which I was shocked about I tried to stop focusing so much on getting quotes and instead I just wrote a solid body paragraph. It is kinda of confusing writing the body before you do the intro and I ma not sure why it is done this way in the first place but I am doing my best. Each week I feel like My writing is greatly improving. This week I added way more content into my body paragraphs. I am very impressed at how far my writing has come on in such a short space of time and I actually look forward to writing a lot more now than I used to in the past I hope you enjoyed reading my blog today and feel free to go ahead read my body paragraphs now.
