Digital Technology BlogPost

Throughout the past 8 weeks in Digital Technology each of us have been working individually on a problem, I have been working on a environmental problem which is "Ocean Pollution", we were first given a template to help us research for our problem, after we've done our research we had to turn our problem into a digital source creating either a Game, app or narrative. Gamefroot is an ideal platform to develop, test and publish educational games. Gamefroot is designed mostly to be used by schools to teach basic skills in programming and coding. Applab is a web-based programming environment that makes it easy for students to create and share short computer programs. We also ahd the choice of using Scratch which is similar to Applab.  Because I didn't have a device for the majority of the week in Digi Tech I decided to write a narrative based on "Ocean Pollution". Below is a link to my research template  and my story on a Google Slide.

Reflection:
For Digital Technology I personally think I did well with other things such as Creating a narrative, but sometimes I would struggle such as coding or using Gamefroot and Scratch. I think I did well sometimes following instructions and getting on with my work if I don't get distracted. I think I worked well by myself other than worked in groups. My favourite session on Digital Technology was doing Research on "Ocean Pollution" and playing with the Spheros.
