Reading 2: planning my approach

Hello, welcome back to my blog the two topics that I have chosen are design process also visual and audio elements which are from the chapter creating a user experience. To help with my research I wrote out a bunch of questions which would help with my research which were:

1)What is the design process of a game?
2)What is the process of a game?
3)How is the design process applied to a game?
4)What are the visual and audio elements in a game?
5)How are visual and audio elements applied to a game?

The two questions that I feel would work best with my research would have to be what is the design process of a game? and how are visual and audio elements applied to a game? I feel like my research questions complete the research question checklist and that it will make research a lot easier.

Keywords to help with my research:
  • Design
  • process
  • visuals
  • sound
  • audio
  • color
  • texture
  • lighting
  • testing
  • production
  • research
  • scale
  • elements
  • game design
  • user experience
  • interactivity 
I have also looked at some literature reviews based on these questions Audiovisual elementsGame design processgame design process I will definitely be looking into these articles a lot more in detail and will be looking for other articles that would help with my research. I will also be using the matrix method to keep all my research organised. 

I will also be using Google Scholar and game design journal to look at different articles that could help with my research I also will try using the TU Dublin library to look at books that might relate to my topics to also help with my research.

Anyway that is all the planning I have done so far and I am excited to research my topics, thanks talk soon.

Growth mindset

Growth minds et I have never heard of Carol Dweck before this module but after listening to her Ted talk and her other videos I feel like she is very inspiring but I have heard of a growth mindset before in secondary school and how to expand our mindset. I feel like overall I have a growth mindset and I am open to learning from my mistakes and I am open to learn new things. Since I have started at TU Dublin I feel like my mindset has grown even more because I got to learn so many new things from different modules and from the people in the course and I feel like I have processed it all well one of my biggest challenges was trying to get all my work done for college even though I loved learning new things while also trying to balance a social life. I feel like I would definitely be interested in learning more about growth mindsets in this semester as I feel like I would like to get a better understanding of a growth mindset. I would like to learn more about how to try to keep everythi...
