MyWorld

The World

• Students are given free rein to create a world that they think would be enjoyable/acceptable to live in. This may mean changing the environment (a world under water/ on an environmentally friendly island). It may mean changing human attitudes (a world of peace/respect)

• The World is to be created in Flash animation and has been preceded by a short formative unit of Flash animation skills training. The world will be explored from the perspective of a narrative story, with the possibility of moral messages being related to the target audience

First Task• Put together a list of desirable features of your new world.• A few starting ideas to consider:

– Politics (will it be a Democracy? Or have you got a better idea?)– Economy (what will the currency be? Will you need money?)– Environment (where is it? Under the sea? On a cloud? Space?)– Entertainment (what will people do for fun?)– Social activities (what will people do to interact with each other?– Responsibilities of citizens

• Decide on a short story with different characters, which will allow people to learn more about the world through their interactions and the events of the story.
