7P8 Virtual Reality

Daily Log:

Day One-I just kind of played around with the site and just started adding some things to a new scene.

Day Two-There was a new student, so I helped her with her website and all that jazz. I didn't really do that much other than start a new scene.

Day Three-I finally decided to really commit to this project.

Day Four-I added more to the scenes I was working on.

Day Five-I worked on this project at home because I was having such a fun time with it, and at this point I'm so set on idea of it. 

Day Six-I finished up all the scenes but I plan to add more details to each scene.

Day Seven-I added one more scene and started making final adjustments.

Day Eight- I started working on my video and website.

• Using CoSpaces, I created a virtual reality world because I thought it would be interesting to see what I can create from my imagination. My original idea had a lot of changes in my head, but when it came to actually coding and creating it was pretty straightforward. I found this project very interesting and fun to do, and I feel that I problem-solved and figured out a lot of things by myself.

• During this process, I learned a lot of things. For example, I learned how to make a character's body language change while they're talking. I also learned how to make something walk/run, and how to make a snowman dance.

• The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Innovative Designer because my VR world is a quiz, which millions of people have made on millions of different subjects. I simply made a quiz of completely random things and made it into a sort of game for the player.

• A challenge I overcame on this project was figuring out all the different scenes. I created so many more scenes than I originally planned, and it was confusing. However, I was able to do it by creating a tree diagram of all the different scenes for visual reference.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would change it to be a shorter version of what I made. The reason why I would change it is because there are so many scenes and because of that it caused a lot of confusion and difficulties. It also made the video longer than it should have been.
