Social Issue Review

Yesterday, in Globaloria we were choosing a topic for are game. I answered questions about are community. We focused on subjects like environment, health, poverty, education, and civic participation. They asked us questions on how some of this stuff effects are community and earth. I played a game called Dafur is Dying the genre was life simulation. This city's well was empty and you had to get them water but you couldn't be caught or else the city would die and you would be sent away to a camp. I think it is talking about environment, poverty, and health. Answering questions about my community wanted me to focus on some pacific subjects like education and environment. We have a good education in are state but not out of the whole country and we are trying to change, especially with taking this class. Also are environment looks clean, but we don't see the parts like landfills and things that are ruining are environment!

  1. Sarah,
    I played Darfur is Dying as well. I kept getting caught. :( haha Anyway, you've already been thinking about what is important to you through answering these questions. So, since you were thinking about social issues in your community, have you had any thoughts for possible game ideas? Let me know! I'd love to hear. I think you've really been doing a great job with your blog, Sarah. Keep up the good work! :)
