(How to make a game using power point ) By : (Shama Emma Mohamed)  INVESTIGATION   Identify the Problem

We have to make a game using PowerPoint.
Explain the Problem I don't know how to make a game in PowerPoint and I never learned how to do one

Research and Analysis [|http://www.btng.co.uk/resources/powerpoint.] __html__ 1. Open Microsoft PowerPoint. 2. Create a blank and new presentation by pressing Ctrl-N. 3.Make sure the first slide has a title layout. 4.In the title box give your new game a name. 5.In the subtitle box write "Click Here". 6.Create a new slide with a title and text layout by pressing Insert->new slide. 7.Highlight " Click Here" (on the first slide) and link it to the second slide by selecting it, then right click (on the mouse) and go to hyperlink. 8.A box will pop up. You pick" Place in this document",then pick slide titles,then second slide. 9.Create a scenario for this slide and create options to deal with the scenario. 10.Highlight each option and link them to another slide that presents a new scenario. 11. Continue the chain of linked slides until a final result is arrived. Design Brief I am going to make a PowerPoint presentation which is going to end up as a game.It should be easy, but not too easy ( a middle level). It should be suitable for Children aged 4 -6. Product Specification My product must: Test Plan DESIGN  Pictures of my designs Place your designs here

 * Of a middle level: I am going to ask a 6 year old child if they found the game easy or hard or at a middle level.
 * Fun to play: I am going to ask three children aged 4,5 and 6 if it was fun to play.
 * Understandable: While a child aged 4-6 is playing the game and asking me questions on what to do now I have found out if it is understandable or not.

Analysis of my designs I think the first game which is called "Search and Find" matches best to the product specification,because it is going to be exactly as the top table describes it. Children aged 4-6 will love it I hope. The second game which is called" Fabulous Dress Up" is more for children aged 6. Although 4-5 aged children could also play it. Justification for chosen design I chose " Search and Find",because it is actually more for children aged 4-6 while " Fabulous Dress Up" is more for children aged 6 and above. I also chose "Search and Find" because it is more fun to play.

Changes made to the original Design Things I made changes to: Those above are the things I made changes to, but my game is still nice without these things. I really like my game a lot. Changes made to the original Plan I didn't follow my plan, because I couldn't do some of the things I wanted to do. Others I just didn't want to do that's all. Some others I found it unfair to do them. EVALUATE  Results of tests The age group I chose could easily play this game and even 3 year olds could play this. Easy to navigate: NO. The children can not skip levels or jump back to the previous level, because I didn't include hyperlinks for those. Colorful: YES. The children will love the different colors I chose. Interesting: YES. For little children it will be fun to play. Of a middle level: YES. The game gets harder as they go along. Fun to play: YES. Well, its for little kids so for them it will be fun to play. Understandable: YES. The game is quite easy to understand. Have different levels: YES. It has got four different levels, each with its own difficulty. Be creative: YES. My game is creative and fun. I will only take the third point as an example: For people over the age level it is boring, but for 4-6 aged children it will be quite interesting. I really like my game, because it is fun and colorful. = Recommendations for improvement  = I could have actually made the tests. My game is kind of boring so it could have been more fun to play. Well if I think again it is kind of nice my game. Self-evaluation of your execution of the design cycle I could have reflected more on my piece of work. I could have investigated much further into my work. I could have designed more things.
 * I didn't include the two thumbs up on my title page.
 * I didn't include a question mark on any of my slides.
 * I added 4 looser pages and NO winning pages, because this is not a race.
 * I changed most of the animations as to what slides should stay without animations and what slides should have some of them.
