MissionMaker

I am speaking at SETT in 2 weeks time and part of my talk will be about MissionMaker so I could do with some of your thoughts, could you answer the questions below and also write anything else you think other teachers should know about Mission Maker.

• So what do you think you learnt so far by using MissionMaker?
• What ICT skills do you think you have either learnt or developed while using MissionMaker?
• How do you think MissionMaker could be used in a school?
• Do you think teachers should use the software to produce games that will teach you aspects of the curriculum?

Thanks for you help

In another email from TIm:

I thought that I would send you a game recently sent to us by Richard Anderson, Teacher & E-Learning Coordinator at Wolverhampton CLC. It can be downloaded at this address:
www.wolverhamptonclc.co.uk/files/mathsgame.mission

Please note that you will have to open missionmaker first before running the file! It is a maths game that he intends to use with a number of Gifted & Talented sessions at the CLC in September 2006.  He would be really keen to obtain your feedback.

Can you leave any feedback you have on the game here, and I will pass it on to him.

Taken from an email from Tim Price-Walker:

We have been inundated with requests from both pilot centres and students about when we would be able to provide a home edition of missionmaker.

As a result of this excitement and frenzied feedback I am delighted to say that we are now able to offer a standalone edition of MissionMaker. This is an offer available only to BETA sites and will allow home users to:

• obtain the same BETA release edition* as the pilot site – make your own computer game at home!
• receive the BETA user guide*
• continue creating your game project at home initiated within the pilot site
• receive 50% discount on the full product release

All for just £39 inclusive of VAT (plus £3.00 postage and packing)

If you would like to order a home edition missionmaker (or have students who would like to order) please do drop me(Tim) a line on 01865 811000.

Sounds like a great opportunity for our students to continue their game creation at home, if they want to.
