Cours 6 sur 6 dans Specialization iOS Development for Creative Entrepreneurs

Students will produce a networked game that will leverage sensors on the phone to create a unique gaming experience. The focus of the game will be to make it physical through real-world gestures, motion and knowledge of other players real-world location. To do this students will need to integrate knowledge of graphics, networking, sensors, and user interface design alongside a skill set of tool usage. The final project will involve milestones with opportunities to get ungraded peer review feedback from fellow learners so that they can iterate and improve their game program. The final networked game that the students produce would be something they could showcase in job application materials, in an interview, or offer in the iTunes store.

The Project and the Plan

In this module we go through the project that you will be working on for this capstone class. We look at the details of what the requirements are and talk a little bit about how to go about finding some of the assets that you might want to use. The first week is all about planning and designing.

Just wanted to make sure that you guys were aware of a little bit different way

in which we're structuring the discussion for this capstone class.

There's going to be a discussion forum associated with this course

that's within Coursera.

This course is a little bit different than the ones you've done before because

the only people that are participating in it are people who have paid for

the course, or paid for this specialization.

The people that are going through this cohort are perhaps a little bit more

committed to the process, taking it a little bit more seriously, and

interested in ultimately getting that certification at the end of the course, or

at the end of this specialization.

Our goal is to have a discussion form in which you can get feedback

between our milestone deliverables from each other, where you can ask questions,

get help, maybe debug some stuff if you need to.

The way this going to work, and I say this hesitantly because the software is always

changing, the Coursera software's always changing.

But what our plan is, is to have one discussion forum that's associated

with this cohort, with each cohort of people that go through this course.

It should last for

an entire eight weeks, and it should be persistent over those eight weeks.

But then for the next cohort, that discussion is going to go away and

a new discussion thread will show up.

That way you'll be able to build a little bit of a sense of familiarity with

the other people that are in your cohort.

You'll be able to carry on extended conversations over the length of the class

but also the messages that you post won't persist after the cohort has gone through.

There's a degree in which they're ephemeral, and they won't persist.

And that if you are going through this course and

it's not the first time the course has been offered, you're not going to see

messages that are left over from people who were in a different cohort than you.

Everyone that should be posting, everything that you should see,

should be people that you're going through the process with.

However, they're more than likely remote.

So one discussion forum lasting all eight weeks.

It'll be hosted by Coursera and it should be on the left side, again,

unless the software has changed between the time I filmed this and

the time in which you're going through the course.

And it will be reset for each cohort.

Now how to use it?

It's kind of up to you and your class.

Our intention is that you would use it to get feedback on ideas,

maybe use it as a sounding board, a place where you can throw some idea out.

Maybe ask for reminders about different ways of doing things or

some pointers to other places where you can find items.

Maybe get some feedback between and before the official graded milestones,

but basically, it's going to be what you make it.

I imagine that each class will take on a little bit different character and

that it'll be a different thing in different places.

Be respectful of each other, that's the thing we always

worry about as instructors, but I also want to set an expectation for,

that everyone that's participating in this class should be treated with respect and

their ideas should be treated with respect as well.

If you don't like it, just don't respond to it and hopefully,

it'll be a mutually supportive environment.

I wanted to make sure that was clear and make sure that you knew about that and

we'll see how it progresses as the course goes on.

Thanks.
