| Talked about the form of the questionnaire and what should be included. Found a tentative list of popular educational games and are looking into getting them. Decided on 2-4 teachers, 4-10 kids and that each hour of video requires 5 hours of editing. Set up an appointment for next Thursday with Judith Lederman of the Math and Science Education program. Next goal is getting the information from her and applying it to the questionnaire, game, etc. |
