AMPLITUDE :: Innovation Support

Innovation Extra ...

In honor of officially kicking off your innovation projects ... this week we will focus the blog assignment on that.

Convey what you are doing out side of class time to work on your projects.  Are you...  Meeting a teammate?  Researching? Attending a webinar?  Meeting with teachers?   Writing emails?   Writing notes on your webpage?

All you have to do this week is share what work you are doing on your project out side of class time.

That's it!  Now go do something project-ish....

  1. Since I am working on the green-screen project,I had to research how to actually do green-screen over the weekend. I looked up a youtube video on how to use the green-screen function in iMovie '11. It made it a lot easier to make a green screen movie in iMovie. It has allowed me to start working on making a movie today. WooHoo!!

  2. I have been looking at the tutorials for using the UDK so that when we are at school we can spend our time building the actual game rather than waste time learning how to use it. Also, we have to look into the games that MIT and the other colleges are putting together to see what direction they are taking educational learning.

  14. Right, Alfred and I have developed a website, and are attempting to populate it with links. We are having a hard time doing any tangible work since the new promethean board still isn't in.

  16. I am doing kinect hacks. I have to do a lot of work out side of class. I have a kinect so that makes working out side of class a lot easier. First off I have to do a lot of research I have already managed to get the kinect up and running on the school computer. Peter and I will also meet a couple of times to get more work done than we can at school.

  17. I have been looking into game dynamic and how we can use the UDK to implement them. I have also researched how other educational video games combine learning and fun into their design. I have also been watching tutorial videos to learn how to use the UDK.

  19. I have been having some difficulties with the Kinect, but Danny and I have figured out a solution. We have been successful in controlling the computer in various ways using only the Kinect. Danny and I have got most of the functions down, but now we are starting to collaborate, whether it be in class or outside of class, on what we could do with the Kinect.
