Just Thought I'd Mention

Not to be um mean or anything, but I honestly thought this was supposed to be a photoshop type class. My personal opinion is that this flash game thing should'e been done in a normal computer education class or something to that effect, not for a class that is supposed to be something totally different. I mean , this stuff is ok, but it's deffinately not what I signed up to so. And im really diaspointed that we've done practically nothing in photoshop. I wanted to take this class becasue I have photoshop at home, but have no idea how to use it. All in all, this is really frustrating and kind of a big let down. And I'm definately not the only one in here who feels this way...

How well do you believe the average American citizen understands US Ideals and how they are applied in government? Why does it matter?

I don't think people know as much as they should about US Ideals and how they are applied in government. People should know because they need to know what goes on in their government and how things are being taken care.

My name is Morgan Hudson and my team name is A.M.A. Our game is based on the murder case, The Black Dahlia. My other team members are Ashley Freeman and Alicia Pipps. Our game helps people test their skills on the court system. Also makes it interesting when you have to figure out who killed Elizabeth Short.

What We Did Thursday

We researched more on our game and also played some of those games Miss Robinson suggested to us.

The Black Dahlia

We found out we can't use jack the ripper because his murders were in london but we did find another interesting famouse murder case. It's the murder of Elizabeth Short also known as the black dahlia. They aren't sure who killed her but they think it may have been Dr. George Hodel.

Game Design

Our game design is to pick a certain case file, give facts about it, and then let the player decide if they are guilty or inocent.
