This document proposes using 3D simulation and virtual reality technologies like Second Life and Wii to educate youth about Singapore's cultural heritage and history in an interactive and engaging way. It aims to increase understanding of the past and encourage reflection through role-playing and simulation games set in different eras. While such games could promote informal learning, their sustainability and ability to fully replace real-world experiences require further consideration.

Effects of children playing computer games for long hours newest
Children playing computer games for long hours can impact physical well-being, academics, social development, and perceptions of reality in both positive and negative ways. Moderate game play may improve emotional health and cognitive skills like problem-solving, while excessive play raises obesity risks and can negatively impact school performance if it replaces homework. Games can positively impact social skills, but too much time playing can reduce real-world social interaction and communication. Prolonged play may also influence how children perceive simulated versus real-world experiences. Overall, moderation and parental monitoring are important to maximize benefits and minimize issues.
Introduction to Cultural Heritage
This document provides an introduction to cultural heritage. It defines heritage as anything important passed to future generations. Heritage is divided into natural heritage like landscapes and cultural heritage like traditions. Cultural heritage includes tangible sites and monuments as well as intangible aspects like folklore. Understanding a site's historical, social, aesthetic, and scientific significance helps determine management policies. Cultural identity is nurtured by a country's cultural heritage through understanding tangible sites and cultural behaviors, values, and traditions.
The acropolis power point
This document discusses the history of the Acropolis in Athens, including how Athens got its name, the key structures on the Acropolis like the Parthenon and Erechtheion from ancient times, and the site as it exists now. Citations are provided from several websites about Greek history and architecture.
Pyramids
Ancient Egyptians built pyramids as tombs for pharaohs and other royalty. The massive pyramids at Giza were constructed over many years using stone blocks that sometimes weighed more than two elephants. It took thousands of workers to build each pyramid as an enormous stone tomb for the afterlife. The pyramids contained treasures and mummies that were preserved to allow the spirits to survive after death.

Oral presentation angkor wat
Angkor Wat is a Hindu temple complex located in Cambodia that was built in the early 12th century by King Suryavarman II. It is the largest religious monument in the world, covering an area of 208 hectares. The temple was built as the king's state temple and capital city and took approximately 30 years to construct using sandstone, laterite, timber, metal and stucco. It features extensive bas reliefs and architecture demonstrating Hindu mythology. Though it began as a Hindu temple, it later became a Buddhist temple. The site was abandoned in the late 15th century but rediscovered in the 19th century. It is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site undergoing restoration to preserve it.
Europe
The document summarizes key physical geographic features of Europe including:
- Northern Europe contains geologically older mountains and fertile plains good for agriculture. Southern Europe has younger, higher mountains like the Alps that create a Mediterranean climate.
- Europe has many peninsulas, islands, rivers, and reclaimed land protected by dikes that have shaped settlement patterns.
- Climate and vegetation zones vary from maritime to Mediterranean to continental, influencing where people live and what they farm.
- Mountains, seas, and rivers have historically isolated groups, influencing ethnic and political divisions in Europe.
Angkor wat
Angkor Wat is a 12th century Hindu temple located in Siem Reap, Cambodia. It was built by King Suryavarman II as his state temple and capital city and is dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu. The massive temple complex covers an area of 200 hectares and combines elements of the standard temple mountain design with Chola influences from South India. It is a representation of Mount Meru and the home of the gods according to Hindu beliefs. Angkor Wat is the best preserved and most famous of the Angkor temples and a symbol of Cambodia.
The Great Pyramid Of Giza
The Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt is the largest of the original Seven Wonders of the World that still remains intact. It was built as a tomb for pharaohs around 2580 BC, taking 30 years and requiring around 100,000 workers. Its precise dimensions correlate to astronomical values, like its base length matching the number of days in a solar year and its perimeter matching the circumference of the Earth. The pyramid's design thus seems to have been based on precise mathematical and astronomical calculations.
The great pyramid of giza
The Great Pyramid of Giza was commissioned by Pharaoh Khufu around 2560 BC to serve as his tomb. It took over 20 years and the labor of thousands of workers to construct the pyramid out of over 2 million stone blocks. At 481 feet tall, it was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years. Located on the Giza plateau near modern-day Cairo, the pyramid now serves as a major tourist attraction and site of archaeological study.
Pyramids power point
The document discusses pyramids, noting that Egypt has more pyramids than any other country. It specifically describes the Great Pyramid of Giza, the oldest pyramid in the world located near Cairo, which stands 146.5 meters tall and was built as the tomb of Pharaoh Khufu. The pyramids were constructed to serve as tombs for kings and pharaohs, with the three large pyramids at Giza built for Khufu, Khephren, and Mycerinus. Large pyramids can also be found in other parts of the world, such as Guatemala.
Acropolis of athens
The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel located on a flat-topped rock that rises 150 meters above sea level in the city of Athens. It has been an important religious and symbolic site for Athenians for over 3,000 years, with the earliest artifacts dating back to the 6th millennium BC. During its history, many temples and structures were built and rebuilt on the Acropolis, most notably the Parthenon and Erechtheum constructed in the 5th century BC during Athens' Golden Age. The Acropolis suffered damage from invasions and warfare over the centuries but remains one of the most iconic sites representing ancient Greek architecture and civilization.

This presentation is a part of the final product DVD “Presentation of folk costumes” made by students from Şcoala Gimnazială ,,George Voevidca" , Câmpulung Moldovenesc, Romania. Responsible of final product: 7th Primary School of Tripoli, Greece.Ancient Egyptian Pyramids
The Great Sphinx of Giza was carved from limestone during the reign of Pharaoh Khafre around 4,600 years ago and stands guard behind Khafre's pyramid. The Egyptians built pyramids as tombs for pharaohs and their queens starting before the Old Kingdom, with the three largest at Giza constructed over three generations for Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. While it was once believed that slaves built Khufu's pyramid, it was actually constructed by 100,000 workers during the Nile's annual flooding. The Pyramid of Saqqara was the first to be built out of stone blocks rather than mudbrick and served as the prototype for later
Cultural heritage & its importance
Cultural heritage plays an important role in connecting people to shared social values, beliefs, religions, and customs. It provides a sense of unity and belonging. Cultural heritage includes tangible aspects like historical sites, monuments, and artifacts, as well as intangible aspects like folklore, traditional practices, and languages. Preserving cultural heritage is significant for understanding history and passing traditions to future generations. It also contributes economically by supporting tourism, as cultural sites often attract many visitors interested in learning about and experiencing different cultural traditions. Government organizations help conserve cultural heritage by overseeing archaeological sites and remains of historical importance.
Introduction to Cultures of the World
This document provides an introduction to cross-cultural comparisons and defining culture. It discusses that culture can refer to both visual arts as well as customs and behaviors. Culture is learned, shared within a group, integrated in patterns, adaptive to environments, and based on symbolism. The document then outlines four levels of sociocultural integration - bands, tribes, chiefdoms, and states - to structure cultural comparisons. It also discusses defining characteristics of cultures like peasants and the importance of fieldwork in studying cultures.
The Great Pyramids Of Giza
The Great Pyramids of Giza are located just south of Cairo in Egypt. Built around 2540 BC, the largest pyramid, known as the Great Pyramid of Giza, was the tallest man-made structure for over 3,800 years and took approximately 20 years to construct. The pyramids were built as elaborate burial sites for pharaohs based on the ancient Egyptian beliefs about the afterlife. Today, the pyramids remain one of the most famous tourist attractions in Egypt.
Cultures in europe
The document summarizes key cultural aspects of several European countries, including their literacy rates, predominant languages, and notable customs and traditions. It discusses how Germany, Russia, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom each have literacy rates over 98%, and examines some of their unique linguistic heritages as well as cultural practices like Oktoberfest, ballet, Bastille Day, and afternoon tea.
How to build a pyramid?
Ancient Egyptians built pyramids using tools like copper saws, chisels, and adzes to shape limestone and granite stones. The pyramid building process involved [1] finding suitable land, [2] cutting and shaping stones, [3] laying the first layer of blocks, [4] building ramps to raise additional layers, and [5] continuing construction until leaving a hole at the top to place the pharaoh's mummy inside secret chambers. Pyramids were built as elaborate tombs for pharaohs because ancient Egyptians believed the elaborate structures would allow the pharaoh's spirit to transcend into the afterlife.

Games and learning2
This document summarizes key points about games and learning from a handbook published in 2005 by Futurelab. It discusses how games can function as effective learning environments by challenging players and allowing them to explore systems and identities. It also examines what skills players may learn from games, such as new literacy practices for interpreting multimodal texts and dealing with complex information. Additionally, it notes the social aspects of games that can support learning, such as collaboration and competition. While games may facilitate powerful learning processes, the handbook also acknowledges criticisms of their use and barriers to implementing games in educational contexts.

Pokémon GO and the Ludification of Culture
Pokémon GO was a phenomenally successful location-based mobile game. It had over 500 million downloads and 21 million daily players in the US at its peak. While not the most technically advanced game, it was popular due to cultural factors like Pokémon's popularity as a franchise and its ability to get whole families engaged in outdoor activity. The document discusses how Pokémon GO and other location-based games represent an increasing "ludification" of culture, where play and game elements are spreading to more areas of life. Researchers propose we may be entering a "Ludic Society" where play is a dominant mode of participation. The technology in Pokémon GO is also discussed as an early form of augmented reality that may shape
CHADD 2014 Should Children with ADHD Play Minecraft?
This document discusses potential benefits and concerns regarding children with ADHD playing Minecraft. It summarizes research showing that video games can positively impact cognition, motivation, social behavior, and emotion regulation for children. Specifically, games may improve spatial skills, problem-solving, persistence, and social/emotional regulation. However, children with ADHD or autism are more at risk for problematic game use. Inattention is linked to problematic use, and role-playing games are associated with issues for those with autism. The document examines whether parents and educators have choice regarding technology and considers developmental trends in media use.
Edutainment
This document discusses edutainment, which is defined as using entertainment media like television, video games, films and websites to educate. It provides examples of edutainment vendors for different media like TV shows, computer games and websites. Advantages are discussed like learning at one's own pace and taking learners to new environments. Disadvantages include criteria like learnability, technical requirements and interactivity. The conclusion states technology has made edutainment possible through multi-sensory learning in a new way.

Educational games and simulations
Educational games and simulations can provide benefits to learning but also have some disadvantages. They have been shown to improve motivation, engagement, and cognitive learning when used effectively. Some examples mentioned are Froguts, which allows simulated frog dissection, and Chucky's Chicken Stacker, a word game with adjustable difficulty levels. However, excessive use may reduce social skills and physical activity. Effective use requires guidance, appropriate challenges, and time for reflection.
The Use of Computer Simulations and Gaming to Enhance Authentic Learning
The document discusses the use of computer simulations and games to enhance authentic learning. It recognizes connections between simulations/games and learning theory. Key elements that make simulations effective for learning include content driven by goals, interactivity, feedback, and opportunities for reflection. Well-designed simulations can improve cognitive skills and allow students to experience concepts in dynamic, interactive environments. Reflection is important for students to make meaning and connect experiences to coursework.

Gaming in Education
This document discusses the potential educational benefits of incorporating computer games into classroom learning. It provides an overview of research showing that games can facilitate literacy, learning, and 21st century skills through embodied experiences, problem-solving, collaboration, and meaningful social interaction. The document suggests that games represent a new learning environment that shares little with traditional schooling but aligns well with how learning works. It argues that commercial games could support learning if used appropriately and that educators should consider factors like learning objectives and technical resources when designing game-based lessons.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水

Editor's Notes

- Name of our game Explore + Heritage = Exploritage

- Refer to article: In terms of learning, digital games in the early part of the 21st century are not seen as merely involving low-level skills, such as hand-eye coordination and fast reflexes (Greenfield, 1984), but as powerful emerging tools for higher-order learning, such as information analysis and synthesis, decision making, and problem solving. However, today’s games, such as role playing, adventure, simulation, strategy, and puzzle games, often proceed at a slower pace that offers more built-in reflective 'space' and 'time' for reflection (Prensky, 2003; Squire, 2004). More and more studies take the stance that game-based learning is experiential learning, and therefore learning from the experience of gameplay must include reflection (Gee, 2003, 2005; Prensky, 2005; Squire, 2004; Squire & Jenkins, 2003; Vaupel, 2002; Wallace, 2005). Studies have shown that the emphasis on the importance of reflection in learning most often focus attention on the reflection that occurs as a game player consciously and purposefully applies ideas while strategizing and implementing each phase of problem solving. The reflection through gameplay and narrative may promote a type of learning that is more significant than that which may occur through play.

- Why not take a tech platform that secondary school kids are already nuts about and put it to use? The Wii features a motion-sensitive controller that looks like a television remote control but can quickly sense the user's movements and translate them into on-screen action. The system also includes Internet access. Ongoing research shows that students learn more quickly and easily with instruction across multiple modalities or through a variety of media. Voice recognition is "the technology by which sounds, words or phrases spoken by humans are converted into electrical signals, and these signals are transformed into coding patterns to which meaning has been assigned“
