A few ideas I would like to get some feedback on.
Main reason for eLearn would be too learn.
Idea 1: There would be a library this library would be composed of books. Visitors could get a blank book then search the web and find a page. Then make that blank book become linked to that page. Then it would be insterted into the library accourding to its title.
Idea 2: Auto update the library. Not really sure how I would do this I'm open for any ideas.
Idea 3: Some kinda testing and studing system that would make it fun/easy to learn somthing new.

I didn't see anything wrong with his english at all. Mertek just likes to be a jerk.
Anyways, something like that would be wasted on the Byond community. If you are really serious about this, I would suggest you learn like a real programming language that you could actully sell in public schools. Learning Programs, mainly, fun, intresting, learning games in general are rare, are usually expensive and schools and home families buy into them. I remeber when my mom bought Wheres Waldow and Sesmey Street Spelling for my little sister used for Nintendo, it cost her $40.00 a game (back in like 1997), used, without a book or box! Theres lots of different ways you could create your eLearn idea, one would be to sneak in learning in the form of a bunch of fun mini games. Typing of the Dead was a big hit in my High School, and after my teachers saw how popular it was, and how it taught good typing skills, they actully adsorbed it into the word classes the next year, meaning they bought either: A - Enough Typing of the Dead games to fill over 250 computers... B - Bought a special licesen to buy one game, and put it on all 250 computers You could have like you said, a library, but then you could also have like pinball, tetris and other mini games that incoperate spelling, math and even history lessons into the games. In any case, theres alot of money to be had in electronic learning, and I myself wouldnt waste it on byond. | |

In the end, they didn't go through with it, but if they would nail be for something like that, I don't see why they would turn around and do the same thing. Our school has a anti-piracy rule. We had a couple cool sim games in our classes I asked to burrow so I could burn, and I was told no, and the reason why. Or it could be they just wanted to be bastards. But then again my first year there, I took a Independent living class, and I gave my teacher a "Abandonware" copy of Jones in the Fast Lane, which she was actully going to use, until the school found out what it actully was, that they couldn't really find it anymore, and told her to remove all copys of the games, from all her computer right away. Or she could of actully been fired. My school is pretty up tight. And Im surpised they didn't kick me out of school for the Typing of the Dead thing, since it was on a CD-R and on my studen file, which I made open, so others could connect to mine, while in their own, and also play it. At one point I even had network games for Quake III and PSO. Then it all came crashing down. =( | |
Heh, at my old school we used to have Quake III secreted away in a few places. We even hexedited the .exe file so that we could rename various files to "ralph" instead of "quake" (because the admin would run periodic searches for any filenames containing the word "quake").
The head of IT (a teacher, and a good one at that) turned a blind eye when he could, but the network administrator (a hired I.T. tech guy) wasn't too happy if he saw someone playing it. =P He'd suspend you before you could say "it's, uh, just my screensaver" and hit alt-tab. =P They do have a right to be uptight about it though. After all, the last thing a school wants is to be sued by a software developer (or anyone else), and it is their network. =) | |
A friend of mine attends an "IT-College". They have a set of very large servers, and some smaller ones that individual people living there host. The larger one (called Betsy or Nansy or something of the sort) has 150gb of movies/music(~80gb is Porno), and another 100gb of games. Not all schools are equally up-tight about it, although it'd probably be in their best interest to be.

Brain Twist
Would be a Hexegonal Board Game. You would roll the dice and go that many spaces. You then land on a tile that would either have you learn a peice of information from a certain topic. Or you would pick a topic that your other player would have too learn. You then could also land on a test space where you are tested on what is in your memory database. The game board can also increase in terrain levels. The more things you know and the higher you get them right on the test the higher your IQ(score) will become. | |
