No Class this week
PS. A lot of you forgot to put your names anywhere in your GDDs,
GDDs and Lens papers need to be posted to your group Tumblr.
Make sure your documents are correctly shared from Google Drive.
Send me your Group Tumblr link
Message me with a link to the page where your group final is posted.
You can also post your 10 Lens Questions there, just make sure your name is on the document.
Also make sure your document is shared as “Anyone with this link can view” so I don’t have to request permission.

Lenses: Final Paper
Each person in your group must choose Lenses from the book and answer a total of 10 questions on the lens cards. Some cards have only 1-2 questions and others have 5-6 so mix and match Lenses until you reach 10 questions.
Answer the Lens questions as they relate to the game your group is designing.

Grade review this week
I’ll be reviewing everyone’s grades this week, please bring copies of all documents you’ve worked on, including your pitch presentations, so that if I’m missing any grades in my gradebook I can add them.

Chapter 15 Quiz is due 5pm Tuesday.
Class time will be spent working on your finals, so bring your questions.
