Day two - Powerdown Shutoff

Reflections on Day Two:

Today was a much more settled day. I was able to hang out with my some new friends and talk about their games and designs. It's an amazing cross generational experience - between TEachers and students. And even among the students, who vary in age by at least a couple of years, there is a real atmosphere of working together and 'espirt de corps'

As for the instruction, I feel pretty good about handling the program, Virtuoso. My favorite thing to do is wander around while the students are working and get them to explain what they are doing. A couple of times I was able to help them talk through the problem and discover a solution.

Lunch was good - Cookies were perfect. It was good to get a schedule for the week. I came up with a couple of good game ideas

more tomorrow!
