Multimodal Unit Reflection

This assignment was a little challenging because we had to make a game board out of one of the papers we wrote. I have never done anything like this which is the main reason why it was challenging. It was also challenging because I cannot draw but I am creative and 75% of the project/multimodal assignment had to be ours. The fact that we created a game board out of one of our papers was the unique thing about the assignment. Making the game pieces, instructions, and game cards came easy but drawing the game board was the hardest thing I had to do because no matter how hard I try drawing is my biggest struggle. I have done a multimodal assignment before. These two were similar because I had to take a paper I already wrote and change it up a bit. I think I did really well because I was creative despite the drawing of my game board which wasn’t so great. I did make time and made a commitment on this assignment because I knew I would struggle with drawing my game board. When we got to write out our ideas and everything in class is what helped me with this assignment because I got help from the professor and that also gave me more ideas or something I needed to change. I learned about this assignment that you can take a paper and change it in a creative way and make something good and different out of it.

Two potential games that I could use where the goal is to win the game is use the something like the board game Sorry for the researched argument essay where it is to get to the 3 people to the finish first if 4 people are playing. Another I could use is maybe the board game Monopoly for the synthesis essay where the goal is to have the most property or money and get to finish first. The essay I could use for the purpose is not to win or for only one person to win is also the researched argument to have the first person to answer the most questions correctly wins or the first person to answer the most questions correctly to get them to finish first wins and that is the end of the game.
