Secondlife Reflection
Skoolaborate No Comments »Over this fist school term of year nine I have been attending the class of which is known as special project. It is a supervised subject by Miss. Boshell, Mr. Chipps and the leader of the campaign, Mr.Groom. The main topic for this subject was to interact in a virtual world acknowledged as Second life.
For the topic of this virtual world we were assigned to undergo a series of tasks by the end of the term. Such as;
- We had to of Created a shirt for our avatar to wear and upload it onto the program
- By creating the shirt we were to use websites for templates of a shirt
- We were to produce the shirt by using Photo Shop
- We were to create a soccer pitch so that all online avatars can verse one another in the game of soccer
While I have been creating a life for my avatar on the virtual world of second life I had encountered with my friends through this game and also many other people from different countries. I have been interactively involved with this project for that at times it had been a great experience. I had especially enjoyed flying around the avatars world and engaging with new avatars, I had enjoyed using a new tool of the computer such as Adobe photo shop for that I had never used it before in my life until this project and I had found it is a cool and better and more advanced tool then paint.
The dislikes of this game for me was the lag effect of the game causing my avatar to stay frozen for more then 5 minutes. I had also had much trouble with the use of photo shop because at time I didn’t know what to do because I have been far more familiar with using the tool of paint.
Through the project of creating an avatar world, we had been announced that the money we make can be withdrawal from the game and into real cash in your hands and so, that had influenced my self to keep on creating many shirts that I can go and sell to the rest of the avatars in the world of second life.
After all the sum up to this terms project topic I have found that it had been a whole new experience for me and a new learning way of how to construct many objects through the tool of photo shop.
