Learning Challenge - Daydreaming

-

 For this weeks extra credit task I decided to do a HEART challenge about daydreaming.

                                                        Article: Mind Wandering 

One thing the article confirmed or me that I knew already was that day dreaming is a natural part of a creative process. In this article I learned that day dreaming is not necessarily a bad thing, the article suggest that it is a sign that someone is smart and creative.

 

 One new thing I learned from the article that I did not know before was that people who daydream from time to time have more efficient brain systems and brain capacity. After reading this article I’m curios to explore more about daydreaming and its benefits. I intend to act on my curiosity by  looking for more articles like this and by watching videos that explain daydreaming in more depth.

The game is based on The Marvel Comics superhero Spider-Man, its available on PlayStation 4 and 5.  Its my favorite game because its really interactive and the game has a lot detail which  brings the comic to life. I also like the game because it has my favorite fights and characters and it makes me reminisce about the times when I watched the tv show and when I read the comics.

Beta Game

The main elements like moving and  the avatar respawning when it hits an obstacle work, I've had trouble adding the side content for a few days. So I'm thinking of a new approach for the side content. Apart from side content I have had a few difficulties with some other things I was working on. Like the Hud and powerups. But I have found a few videos and websites that are going to help me.                                                                                     My Image: My new approach to side content. I' m quite behind on some of the targets I  set out for  my game but with the videos and advice I found online, I think I will able to implement the extra things I wanted. Overall I hope to make a game that I would be proud of.

Growth Mindset Image from  Pinterest source: Pinterest  I haven't heard of Carol Dweck before, but I have heard about growth mindset. I learned about it in a class in secondary school. I'm not sure where I see myself on the spectrum of a growth-fixed mindset in terms of school work. I know I can be better or good at something if I tried but then I don't try because it seems hard  or boring to me. While I've been at OU I have learned that most times I don't take a positive approach when trying to learn something, I also learned that if I make something competitive for myself I tend to find it easier to learn and interesting. Some of my biggest challenges when I try to learn new things is that I would take a lot of information and then I would think oh this is too hard or this is  boring. And this leads me to thinking that it would be quite daunting to give it a second try. I am definitely interested in learning more about growth mindset this semester, I think learni
