Global Issues Games Evaluation

I played a game called "Against All Odds" and it was a really nice game. It is about helping a refugee escape from her country then help her find a shelter and then a job and so on until she gets and apartment. What I really liked about the game was that it was very realistic because it showed how people take a wrong impression about refugee's which is very true in some countries. I really liked the game and that's why I played it about 5 times.

Voicethread Evaluation

In order to make my voicethread I used Microsoft Office Word 2007, Microsoft Office Powerpoint 2007 and obviously voicethread which I accesses using Internet Explorer. During the making of my voicethread I had some technical issues. The first issue that I faced was that my power point wouldn't upload on voicethread and that wasted alot of my time. Another issue that I faced was recording my voice because I made mistakes while recording on alot of the slides and I had to repeat some of them 4 times and that was very cconfusing.I think my voicethread was good because it delivered a message and it had information. Another thing that I liked about my voicethread was that it had nice pictures which I got from search.creativecommons.org. The pictures were really important because they were the only visual things since we had to record the information. I chose those specific pictures because they matched what I had to say and some of them were interesting and some even were so good that I didn't have to explain alot becauase theyw ere so meaningful. I think my voicethread would have been better if there was some interesting facts at the end. Also, if my voice was louder it would have sounded better because once when I watched it I could not hear clearly because my voice was very low in the voicethread. If I was to do another voicethread in the future I would definitely add more slides and more interesting facts. The most important thing that I will do is make my voice louder while recording.
