Interactive reusable Learning Object

How much effort did you exert designing and creating the iRLO?

How does designing and sharing an iRLO impact your future teaching?

This was by far the hardest of all the assignments this semester ( this and ...well keeping up with blog posting, while still having something different to say for everything). This took at least  hours when I first made it. The alterations were not as hard, because I had the basic done and not many things to fix. I altered where the characters started, and some of the questions. Probably the hardest thing for me to figure out was how to appropriately move my project forward from step to step.  I also struggled with actually creating a unique idea for an iRLO. I decided on having students sort objects so they can better understand that an object can have more than one attribute. I had to look at the standards to figure this part out, but that is what I would recommend to figure out how to best think of an idea. Once again I was happy with the outcome of my assignment, and after I finished this project, I had the biggest sigh of relief and feeling of success. 

This helps me to reflect on all the information that my students will have to learn. There is a lot of things that we have to help them be successful at, and any way that can best help them should be used. For many students this may be playing video games. That is why this project was so great! I can now create video game that my peers and I can use for our students to help them succeed.
