CST 361S Week 7

CST 361S Week 7

This week we explored how video games can be used to come up with solutions to today's modern problems. A game is a platform in which one must solve a set of tasks or problems. The idea here would be to implement a social or global problem into a game in order to find solutions to the real world problem. There are organizations out there working to create such games. 

I have completed my service learning with 38.5 hours. This week I was able to see first hand the fruits of my labor. In partnership with Lighthouse of Ft. Worth, I was able to present refurbished computers designed for low vision individuals to kids in need at YMCA Camp Carter. It was good to interact with members of the blind and limited vision community and hear there stories and challenges. I was also able to see other technologies being developed today as there was a vendor showing the kids the new gadgets available to assist them in their lives.
