 due before class, Monday Mar 28

 (1) learning analysis:

 use this, from notes:

 Let's pull this discussion together in a framework that we can apply to analyzing (and eventually designing) a games. Fill in the blanks: 

Procedural knowledge: Playing this game involves the skill of _____________________, which is a real-world skill. Playing the game provides extensive practice with the skill (yes or no.) You have to already have this skill in rudimentary form to play (yes or no). The game includes resources, such as instructions or demonstrations, from which a declarative representation of the skill can be formed (yes or no). These resources are_____________________________.

 Specific declarative knowledge: Playing this game involves knowing these important real-world facts:________________________. You already have to have a rudimentary knowledge of these facts (yes or no). Within the game, access to these facts is provided by ________________.

General declarative knowledge: Playing this game involves knowing these important generalizations:_________________________________________. Forming these generalizations is supported in the game by presentation of the comparable but contrasting situations or entities, in this way_________________________________

 Efficiency: Processing the above knowledge represents a (choose one) negligible, minor, major, dominant proportion of the time players spend on the game.

 OR augment/modify this framework in a way that could be used for other projects, not just your own

 ***post on GORP site

 ***while you are at it, post whatever you did for cognitive task analysis on GORP, too

 (3) review with sponsor
