Week 4-Feedback

 Feedback Strategies

After reading the two articles I have chosen to read which were "Try feedforward Instead of Feedback" and "Be a mirror", after reading these two i'll explain how my knowledge on feedback has gotten much bigger than before.

I already knew feedback was a very important thing but I didn't really think on how much different types of ways you can use feedback for example downward feedback which is one of the traditionally methods of information using feedback where the leaders would give downward feedback to their employees, and it's also the same way for employees can give feedback to their leaders which is called upward feedback.

But what I really liked about this article was how it said a big problem with all these types of feedback is that it focuses on the past and on what has already happened not on the infinite opportunities that can happen in the future, I liked this part of the article because I agree with this statement a lot because in my opinion what's the point of always talking about what you did wrong instead you should be focusing on future.

The second article I read "Be a mirror" talks about growth mindset and it talks about how some of these students progress much faster than others is because of their mindset, I think it's a good thing to have because all their skills like reading, problem solving can always improve and always get better to help them through the learning process, so basically a growth mindset you really believe in yourself and have very little self doubt, unlike a person with a fixed mindset believes that what ever abilities they have like reading or whatever even if it's good or bad is just gonna stay the way it is and their is absolutely no way for their skills to improve.

In my opinion feedback is a very good thing but it also depends on the person for example when I get feedback and their is a couple of bad feedback, I'm the type of person wouldn't be depressed about the negatives instead id be looking at it for what it is and now I can improve on it and look at the stuff I did right and improve on it, but a different person could have a completely different response.

Week 5-Project

  Game vision statement  Game genre: The game genre that I will be choosing from a serious of options like shooters, action adventure and role playing games I was having a hard time in thinking what type of game I wanted because when ever I get told a project and we have all the power to make it anyone I want I get and have so many different ideas in my head it gets too much sometimes and I had to realise that I was only new to game development so all the complex and cool features that I wanted for my game would be very difficult so I went for one of the simpler routes and chose to make a plat-former game. Gameplay: The gameplay for the plat-former was going to be similar to how super Mario gameplay is because one I liked super Mario so it would be fun to make a game similar to it and Mega man another plat-former just like Mario but instead of just jumping around just like in Mario, Mega man has a shooting aspect in the game, so I know that I'm definitely going to have co...

Week 3-Feedback

 Feedback thoughts The two articles I read was a fixed mindset could be holding you back and Silence the critical voices in your head. When I was reading these two articles it did open my eyes on how I look at feedback I liked the section in a fixed mindset in the changing how you think section, where even though you know that you have a fixed mindset it's not a bad thing it's a good thing because now your more self aware of you and your surrounding and now you can change your fixed mindset into a growth mindset, but it's not going to be easy you don't just one day get up and boom you are now in a growth mindset, theres levels to it and it's going to take time maybe weeks, months or years it depends on the person. And if you have a fixed mindset you struggle to adapt because your so used to the thing that you are really good at doing and it's a bad thing really because now you would be scared to try and learn a new skill set, but people with a growth mindset you...

Project week 7

 prototype My game development was going pretty good until I accidentally deleted the file because I bought the file I was working on in a different folder and I deleted that folder with it, but it's ok I'm going to start again but I can talk about how the process was going for me the good and the bad. The good was that the coding was going pretty good thanks to the tutorials that shaun put us on, on the unity tutorials but then I went on to youtube to learn more about coding especially more on 2D plat-former type of coding because thats the game I'm making so It was pretty helpful for me when I was looking at the tutorials.     Id say I only had a couple problems  was that my work rate has been lacking lately but I'm going to bounce back now so it took me a bit to get to the point of how developed the game was before it was deleted because of my stupid mistake and the second one was picking the sprite and background and all the oth...
