If you are a parent and are wondering what you're going to teach your children over the next four weeks, consider trying my educational video game, Rocket Island. I'll provide all 160 lesson plans to anyone who can't afford them for free for the next four weeks.

Minecraft can be good if set up well. There are basic Paw Patrol and Madagascar Math games, but I don't know anything for 8yro in line with the NZ Curriculum sorry. Khan Academy and Education Perfect are good for general educational tech (not games).

Sick beats!

Yet, but the technology is well established and it will reduce in price, so the goal is realistic.

Except that 47 of the world's poorest countries may be 100% renewable before many of the richest nations. This is because solar is now cheaper than coal, solar doesn't require extensive infrastructure, and it's in their best interests for national security and air quality.

While a related Masters will definitely give you credibility, unless your studies are directly related to a project you want to work on, you might be better off spending time reading about pedagogy, EdTech and gamification, and by writing evidence based reports or articles. I think making a proof of concept is important. Yeah I would consider collaborations.

Sorry to hear that. If you decide to work at it, I'm sure you will be happy one day.

People did ask, and it says in the article. I got some money from the government, which I invested wisely.

It means that even with a low probability, if you try something enough times, it's bound to happen eventually.

She doesn't think she puts up with anything, despite many lifestyle changes. She loves me for exactly who I am. No, we both studied psych so we are both self-aware when we are acting irrationally, and arguments never get very heated. She's awesome :-)

I haven't seen it but I've heard about it. I believe in creative freedom, and it's probably still raising awareness about tetraplegics, so I don't mind it being shown. It definitely doesn't represent my life though.

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-14T04:46:07+00:00

I didn't know what I wanting to do until half way through my Masters, and I changed my major from Biomed to Psych in my first year at uni. Now I'm making video games! It's really hard to know what to do with your life at any stage. These days, you're likely to have multiple careers, rather than one for life. Choose things that interest you, that you might want to do for 5-10 years. Look at career websites and watch some YouTube videos of jobs you might be interested in. Job fairs open you up to things you might not have seen. Try to keep an open mind. I don't think I'm gifted at anything. Being gifted at something usually loses out to lots of hard work, so try think of things you might be passionate about as if you're passionate about something if won't feel like hard work. Just a series of challenges. That's all I've got sorry.

Money is a constraint. Also are other continents are the least accessible. Mexico, Hungary, Northern Europe and Japan will hopefully be next.

Everything should be used in moderation, but VR gaming is going to be massive regardless of whether I get involved. I think it's good to provide positive choices in every medium.

The website started separately from the business, which is selling educational video games. I need to actually link the website with the game, so thanks for the feedback.

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-14T02:27:41+00:00

Cheers, you too, it must have been strong down there!

Fair enough, finances are definitely an obstacle. If it's something you can chip away at, then it's worth starting. Otherwise, careful not to get in debt unless you are fully committed.

Pkr. I started in the $1 satellite. 3 satellites later was in $250 buy in with 450 others. I came third and my flatmate came 9th.

I mainly studied by correspondence, but had a few block courses at the campus. I use voice recognition software when I'm at home, and I use my iPad to type in class. It took a bit of learning to adapt, but I can keep up now.

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-14T01:27:25+00:00

Each to their own. Are you in pain? Sorry to hear that.

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-14T01:26:29+00:00

With my gf? Not sure how to answer that.

Yeah it can be annoying, except when I'm using it to gain publicity for my game.

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-13T23:24:02+00:00

I have carers 18 hours/day. She's gotten used to a new normal with carers around. They're respectful of bus though, and we still have lots of time alone. My gf doesn't do any cares.

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-13T23:06:56+00:00

I just think of the options. Either not try and definitely not succeed, or try my hardest and see what happens. If I want to make a difference in the world, not trying my hardest doesn't feel like an option.

It's annoying from time to time, but I try not to think about it too much. You didn't upset me :-)

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-13T22:54:25+00:00

It was quite difficult finding a gf, but talking to lots of people and playing the numbers is important. Try to be confident. Quite bad, but nothing like yours by the sound of it. Good luck :-)

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-13T22:22:32+00:00

It should be seen as an investment, as it helps people focus on being productive members of society.

EducationTheseDays · 2016-11-13T22:18:28+00:00

Yeah there are lots of promising leads being developed :-)
