...marketed directly to parents rather than children, clearly advertises achievement of goals, not gaming or fun. On the other hand, the ‘entertainment’ strand of children’s software is more geared towards attracting children. By featuring an open-ended, exploratory online environment and fantasy worlds rather than goal-oriented games, the entertainment genre advertises to a more youthful target audience comprised of children who seek adventure, imagination, pleasure, exploration, and creativity, in contrast to the academic strand’s learning and reflecting goals. However, I would like to focus on the last genre, construction. After defining what the constructivist approach symbolizes, I will use the example of the online gaming series, “The Sims,” to show how this genre differs from the academic and entertainment types in terms of content, benefits, and advertising techniques. The construction genre is often also called authoring, for it involves a player who is the writer, builder, or creator. “This constructivist approach focuses less on conveying academic or cultural content and more on providing tools for construction and tinkering… They draw less on explicit educational ideologies or images of play and more on images of mastery and control” (101). This genre integrates both education and entertainment, in a way. The games...

...student’s study habits? But then choosing only a specific title which is, “Effects of playing NBA2k Series to basketball athletes”, (how this affect their play in real basketball games). Basically the concern is when these athletes play NBA2k, seeing the moves of the players in that games and applying these specific moves or strategies to the way the athletes play basketball. This could also be applied in other sports like FIFA games. Statement of the problem Computer games are growing fast today. We all see that children are mimicking some games into their real life situations in either good or bad way. One example could be the game “ The Sims” in which people use their imaginations in building their dream houses in the game and maybe some may copy the blueprint of the structure and put it into reality. Will the game NBA2k be like the game Sims that athletes may use the play style of the players in that game in applying it to their play style on the way they play their games? Significance of the study The research is for the athletes who play basketball and for the people who are interested to learn playing this sport, by applying what they learn from the game. This might help the athletes improve their skills and strategies in their actual games. Assumption of the research The expected result of the research is that: playing the game NBA2k really helps athletes improve their play and style, by applying the moves and strategies and using it in to their competitions...

...Dependent Variable: SIMS Independent Variables: GRIP, ARM The dependent variable SIMS is determined by independent variables GRIP and ARMThe most important independent variable in this relationship seems to be ARM because the data seems to be moved more by the change in ARM than in it does by the change in GRIP. | | SIMS (simulations) is the dependent variable in this experiment. A simulation is defined as a way to model random events, such that simulated outcomes closely match real-world outcomes. By observing simulated outcomes, researchers gain insight on the real world (Simulation of Random Events, 2014). The simulations in this case required that the participant exert force on a simulated wrench while assuming standing and a kneeling position. GRIP (grip strength) is one of the independent variables in this experiment. Grip strength is defined as the measurable ability to exert pressure with the hand, fingers, or both. It is measured by having a patient forcefully squeeze, grip, orpinch dynamometers; results are expressed in either pounds or kilograms of pressure. (Mosby's Medical Dictionary 8th Edition, 2009) ARM (arm strength) is the other independent variable in this experiment. Arm strength is easily defined as the strength of your arm. Strength is defined as creating muscular tension (Hargrove, 2011). In this experiment, GRIP and ARM determine the SIMS. The idea is that the higher the higher the GRIP and ARM, the higher the SIMS numbers will be. Therefore...

...What Is A Video Game By: Kiara Foisy Video games are one form of gaming systems that are slowly taking over the world. No one wants to go outside know a days, they just want to stay indoors and play video games. For some people who may not know what a video game is it is “An electric or computerized game played by manipulating images on a video display or television screen” (Farley, 2012, Paragraph1). Video games are separated into categories, which include Role-Playing, Strategy, and Simulation. One category of video games is Role-Playing. Role-playing is “a game in which participants adopt the roles of imaginary characters in an adventure under the direction of a Game Master” (Dictionary, 2012, Paragraph 1). In other words a Role-Playing game, also known as RPG, is when one or more people assume a task and play it out in virtual reality. You would set out on a life as the main character and live it, while completing tasks and going on adventures. An example of a role-playing game is Final Fantasy XIII, which was released on March 9th, 2012. While playing Final Fantasy XIII, you play as multiple people doing multiple things. You battle powerful enemies and magical allies in the worlds of Cocoon and Pulse. Two more examples of role-playing games are Fable 3 and Dragon Age: Origins, both of which were released in the year 2010. Another video game category is Strategy. A strategy video game is “a genre of video games that emphasize skillful thinking and planning to achieve...

Diversity within population amongst a community is what also helps a community to thrive and surface new ideas, which is beneficial to a community. People in a community that bring about change can be a friend, employee, student, or anyone; there is no one specific person who can build a community by his/her self; it is community efforts. This presentation will discuss the profile of a place called Sims City, and all about this little city that makes it worth living in its community. This is a diverse community of different ethnicities with different religious beliefs.

...When is a Game No Longer a Game? Joel AJ Parker Northwood University Video games are becoming a huge part of a person’s life nowadays, especially children. It is no longer the world of board and card games. Many people would argue that video games do not allow a person to use their imagination. However, Will Wright would beg to differ. Wright believes that video games now allow a person to use their imagination to create their own scenarios and customize a “new life” within a game. However, I believe that he would agree that the video game world could be evolving to a point where they are no longer making “games”. There is a controversial online “game” that has the title of Second Life. Some might ask when a game stops being a game? What is the limit for reality in a video game or is there even a limit? There is a certain limit to the reality of a video game; it should no longer be a video game when a person can consider it their second life. Second Life is a computer game that is a virtual world. It allows the gamer to enter a world and design an avatar for the “game’s” virtual world. The game allows players to purchase land, property, cars, and clothing as well as other real life amenities. It is unlike other virtual worlds because it allows for the player to profit from the game; it seems to take over their actual life. Second Life allows the player to convert their “Linden Dollars” into cash via a PayPal account. They are allowed to sell their creations in the virtual...

...Name Teacher NAme Tom Sims 11 December 2012 ` Ever wonder who revolutionized downhill snow sports? I can tell you that. One day in school Tom Sims was in his 7th grade shop class and he had to do an engineering project and he wanted to make a skateboard that you could use in the snow. If it wasn’t for Tom Sims I don’t know whether or not there would be snowboarding or even skiing. He is the godfather of snowboarding and aggressive downhill skiing. The way he thought of it is when he couldn’t skate in New Jersey in the winter and that frustrated him. So he invented a ski board, which is a snowboard just with a different name. So that winter he had something to use in the winter and then it just hit. He had owned his own skateboarding shop for a while after he got out of school, and Tony Hawk road for his skateboards, but then he wanted to add his invention in 7th grade to his production list. So he tried to get them on their in the late 1970’s but he didn’t have enough money for it so he had to put it off for awhile, but he didn’t tell anyone about it. Because he wanted it to be a surprise. So then in the early 1980’s he put them on his production line and they called “Sims Snowboards”. It was basically a huge hit when he produced them. People loved it, it was Americas next big thing. After the snowboards came along in the mid 1980’s Tom Sims decided he wanted to spice things up with them. So what he did was wanted to make jumps so u could get big air just like if...
