The Final Boss of this course is a cumulative ePortfolio (in the form of your own website) one that will serve as a showcase for all the creative work you’ve done in the Main Questline and Side Quests. Ideally, this portfolio will be the kind you could showcase as a designer’s showcase or as a portfolio for a potential employer. It is a fearsome horror, but nothing you can’t overcome!
Final ePortfolio – 3000 NAPS
The Final ePortfolio will contain three parts: A Hero’s Courage, A Hero’s Power, and A Hero’s Wisdom.
A Hero’s Power: Re-Vision
Your Re-Vision will involve re-examining, re-constructing, re-organizing, re-stylizing, and editing one of your projects to showcase in the Final ePortfolio. This will likely be either your Game Criticism Project or your Analog Game Project.
A Hero’s Wisdom: Re-Flection
Your Re-Flection will involve pulling together all of your journal log entries, Side Quest and Main Quest compositions, and reflecting on the journey and transformation of yourself as an adventurer. Using these writings as artifacts, you will reflect your development and write an “About Me” page for your website that will introduce your audience to your own games.
A Hero’s Courage: Re-Mix
Your Re-Mix will involve embedding a completed version of your D.I.E. (Digital Interactive Experience) to your site. This project, undertaken by you and your crew-mates, will mean taking everything we’ve learned about media and interaction design to create your own, fully-playable video game or prototype.
