Visitor: Since you’re not logged in, you’re not experiencing the gamified version of the website. Once logged in, all players (students) are greeted individually by name (as you were and will be addressed as “Visitor” throughout the site) as they encounter, accept, complete, and master quests (assignments) while leveling up (progressing through the curriculum), earning XP (eXperience Points) and Gold (class currency used to purchase privileges and resources).

For more information about our edu-experiment, see this video and/or explore the site, perhaps starting here. (We’ve improved the game quite a bit since that video was recorded.) If you’d like to read more about the evolution of the gamified curriculum delivery system, the comments in this post (hosted on Adobe’s Education Exchange) contain most of the story (registration required).

If you’re an educator interested in experiencing the gamified version of the site, contact me and I’ll set you up with an account. If you’re really daring and want to try this yourself, let me know and I’ll help you get started.

Week 32.4/33: Visitor, read the Week 32.4/33 update and follow the instructions you find there.

Welcome to the new Mac Lab site! Your Quests will begin as soon as you (and a parent or guardian) read and sign the forms allowing me to give you the keys to your own account and your own website.

Forms: These are the forms you need to read and this is the form student and parent need to submit. Once the form is submitted, I’ll activate your account. See the board for login info. Quests and daily updates are live on the Posts.

Explore this site to see what else you might discover about the journey ahead. Hint: Under Construction is a good place to start.

Are you game?
