Follow Up and Evaluation William Colmenares Universidad Sim贸n Bol铆var
Muvenation
Preliminaries I´ve attended 3 workshops. One self paced: Basic Scripting 103 Two on building:
NCI One Prim Wonders Buddy Building
All “one shot”, very interesting, some a little chaotic, specially at the beginning. 2 William Colmenares

Provision of guidance, support and feedback
Feedback delivered on demand
Guidance and support
On self pace none and very little on another Good intentions regarding feedback led to some chaos (bunch of people talking (chating) at the same time requesting answer
Time was the ruler. Guidance and support was submitted (subdue) to time compliance

Monitoring of student progress
Monitoring is based on student ability to reproduce some experience, but not really verified In some cases example (goal) results are featured No tech requirement upfront but some ability to handle menus and windows is requiered

Quality of feedback
Rather informative Difficult on one session WS Maybe better if some preWS activities were implemented

Assessment model
None Possible in one session WS where time is an issue?
6 William Colmenares

Highlights
High level of excitement in students Thinking about affordances (teaching, life fulfilment, psycological medical benefits) Early signs of community and openness to mentoring Confidence on learning by doing in the WS or later
7 William Colmenares

Lowlights
Dropouts Not enough space for collaborative online work in the WS. May be improved by follow up sessions Desire for more individual guidance
8 William Colmenares

Things I Learned
Basic scripting and building Need to address more significant differences before the WS Importance of willingness to play and experiment over and to stick to the WS even if one’s behind Need for small groups and teaching assistants 9 William Colmenares
