Since time immemorial educational researchers and game designers have agreed that most good games share these 7 parts:
- The Character
- Setting
- Objective
- Challenges
- Rules
- Components
- Actions

@PipAdam Today I was just delighted to hear a conversation between a duck, a slot machine, and a heart beat. Your podcast is a special thing, and I really appreciate it.

[Pete Hall @SteelOtter]

@Millycenti @hadyngreen Thank you for showing up and doing that work.

[Pete Hall @SteelOtter]

@hadyngreen @Millycenti I guess it’s forgivable to not really understand the unintuitive, invisible, vertigo inducing exponential slingshot-ride we’re all on.
How can we empathetically and safely send a country through the least funny circus cannon ever?

@hadyngreen One essential donut shop in Auckland has made a case for staying open, essentially providing essential fudge and essential marshmallows.

This has resulted in a an essential life-long boycott.

@dianagracenz What a way to guarantee a call from the boys every meal time!
I can just imagine you coaching them on snack tips: ‘Look right at the back of the freezer, behind the soup.. that’s where parents hide the ice blocks!'

Hi everyone. Heads up: The kids now have my iPad.
If you get a FaceTime call from someone with wide eyes and jam on their face, please provide an authentic learning experience.

@vivster81 @eloquentsonia @EnDoubleU @ClaireAmosNZ @voluntarilyHQ Hey team. Firing up twitter for the first time in a long time. I think some contestable funds / grants would love to see an application like this. Maybe Rotary / Lions / local MPs could help with an approach to administration that would reassure grant providers.

[Pete Hall @SteelOtter]

@vivster81 @gnat I think they nailed it, but it couldn’t hurt to add a banjo.

[Pete Hall @SteelOtter]

this looks like a great day of learning. Working some logistics, hope to make it!

[Pete Hall @educationhall]

Looking forward to it!
@SteelOtter you in?

@rosie_ww The Perry Kauri museum and reserve in Warkworth. They sell small plants to help pay for upkeep. A really manageable jaunt for a family.

[Pete Hall @SteelOtter]

This is my kind of museum.

Estimated 15 minutes to the car park, but traffic has literally slowed to a crawl.

[Pete Hall @SteelOtter]

Everything in its place. Other than capital letters. They seem to have the run of the place.

@hadyngreen Holy flashbacks. That cat becomes a cassette tape doesn’t it...

@pixelwench Related: I am definitely going on a bakery crawl these holidays.

[Pete Hall @SteelOtter]

Twitter has decided to only notify me about tweets from @pixelwench and @szechuan, and things that @timoslimo and @gnat like.

It’s quite the unexpected upgrade.
