Media Dev:

Together, we've built hundreds (600+) of WCLN media pieces which have been popular with students, as they provide non-pressure and engaging opportunities for testing their understanding.

As a Lesson Developer, you'll often want to add some interactives so students can "play" and "test their knowledge" in little portions along-the-way.   These have proven popular and have improved student scaffolding, as they're quick and non-threatening ways for students to play (test their knowledge) before moving forward.

Some Lesson Developers are comfortable making their own games, but most would prefer some help with the technical side.

Game Design Steps:

1. Decide on the format that best fits your requirements.
2. Clearly identify the required development information (eg. left1=3/4, right1=0.75......).
3. If you have graphics that you'd like used, you can send them along or clearly describe your needs.
4. When organized, submit the form to submit your game into the tech-support que.
5. Move onto the next.   You may get questions and/or a confirmation email from tech-support.

Making Graphics (if wanted):

You can let the tech-support create your graphics if you choose.  If so, skip this page and just ensure that you describe the graphic requirements to the best of your ability.

If you'd rather make your own graphics, here you go:
