edited November -1 in Announce Your Game!
Hi everyone,

I entered a game in the National STEM Video Game challenge. This challenge was to create a working mobile game prototype that teaches science, technology, engineering, or math. I created a game called a sciTunes Human Body Adventure to teach kids about the systems of the human body. It is for preK - 4th graders.

Here's what I would greatly appreciate:

I need you to vote for my game! http://cooney-stem.skild.com/Vote.jsp

You'll need to create an account and then click "applause" next to my game (right now it is listed first - "a sciTunes Human Body Adventure)

The winner gets to go to LA for a rather exclusive conference for technology in education.

Thanks guys!

    Absolutely Fun and Wonderfully Done... so glad things worked...

    Really excited and happy for you, Dan.

    downloaded the proto... can't wait to get the kids going on this.

    I enjoyed it myself... not enough education about your body and it is something you have with you every day of your life!

    Thanx...MH

    Your game looks great! Is this in the "pro" or collegiate category? Either way best of luck!

    Was it made by the high school students?

    Hi...no I am in the DEV category. We (my company) sponsored 1 team from the 3G Summit last summer to make an iphone game from the girls concept. There were 8. Then we rolled it into the STEM once we knew.

    The girls jumped in on game specs, flow, play features, vo, etc....and a few of us led the coding and development schedules. There was not time to teach any coding this round. All Chicago area high schoolers.....

    I used to know a science teacher named Caldwell. But he lived in Illinois and would never do this kind of thing. Good luck with the contest, Scitunes.
