In our most recent OLPC classes, we have continued to work on our Etoys career lessons. We are designing these lessons to be both informative and interactive in order to teach others about different careers in exciting and engaging ways. My lesson focuses on various careers in the healthcare industry, such as dentists, nurses, and psychologists. This is my second year designing lessons in OLPC, so I have been able to challenge myself by creating more difficult animations, and I learn more about what Etoys is capable of each day. My favorite page to design so far has been the dentist game (pictured below), in which the student is told to clean the teeth in the mouth and get rid of the cavities. It could be the most complicated piece of programming that I have attempted, but I have enjoyed the challenge. So far, I have only seen the progress of my book and the books of others in my class, so I can’t wait to see the final project when all of our lessons are put together. I know that seeing all that we have accomplished will be very rewarding, especially due to the fact that students all over the world will be able to enjoy and learn from them!
