I had my Grade 7s create games that involve adding and subtracting integers instead of doing a unit test. The results exceeded my expectations!
I'm particularly impressed with this game's mechanic of using positive/negative dice. You decide whether to add or subtract before rolling, then use the resulting calculation to determine how you move!

Do we teach programming the way people were "taught" on the Generation Game: too much too soon and no time for mastery?
We took the boys to the Snoopy Soars with NASA Exhibit at a local museum. He enjoyed getting to try on the astronaut gear while seeing other cool astronaut things. :)

By using famous AR technology, now students can learn anything even if they are outside the classroom in an entertaining way. Distance learning program are more easier and Augmented Reality teaching help in increasing engagement towards studies. @ yeppar.com/augmented-reality-education.html
A4 Milini 150g sketchbook (landscape), graphite pencil and coloured pens (Pilot 88)
The University of Sydney's Macleay Museum is currently running an exhibition of wax models used in the teaching of medicine and science. I will return to sketch the various pieces of equine anatomy, for example, but today was all about sketching the human figure, dating from 1881 and French in origin. I think it is part of the Museum's holdings and was used in teaching anatomy to medical students a long time ago.
Traditional figure drawing involves exposure to ecorche models and this is the first time I've sketched/drawn from one. This model is quite small - far from life-size, at least of an adult - and surprisingly odd in places: a quite distended belly and remarkably thin arms. Cartilege is in white and the muscles rendered in more of a sanguine colour than crimson. Blood vessels in black create an all-over pattern, some of them thick in places, e.g. carotid artery.
Sketching was difficult; I had to stand slightly away so as not to get in the way of other visitors. It was behind glass; I sketched standing up. The lighting of the exhibition is excellent, but every so often the light changes for this model because of the drift of light from the back; the lights in the background are determined by sensors, so when there's no people, the lights 'go out'. I started with a pencil sketch to get the overall feel, then graduated to use of colour. Being quite an old model, it is quite "used" in places.
After about an hour of this, I graduated to the start of some more detailed areas, moving into the "area" of other visitors.
Today I concentrated on the mass of muscles, paying less attention to the geometry of the blood vessels, but it would be worthwhile concentrating instead on the geometry of the blood vessels then adding the muscles. I am suddenly now keen to go back and find illustrations of ecorche models and blood vessels in figure drawing books.
I might not have got the height right (I'll estimate actual distances next time) but it 'seemed' quite effortless having previously worked through the Riven Phoenix "Structure of Man" drawing videos.
Obviously, the more you look the more you see, so I'll be back. The exhibition closes in August.

This game involves keeping track of the positive and negative leaves one accrues!
