Brief Video Game History
The first video game was created in 1958 and was called Tennis for Two. In the 1970s, Atari created early arcade games like Computer Space and Pong, popularizing the video game industry. In the 1980s, Nintendo launched the NES console and games like Super Mario Bros, The Legend of Zelda, and Metroid, starting the console wars between Nintendo, Sega, and others. World of Warcraft's success in 2004 demonstrated the popularity of online and PC gaming. The mobile gaming industry also grew significantly in the late 2000s with the rise of smartphones.
Dungeons & Dragons history
Dungeons & Dragons, conceived by Gary Gygax as an extension of his wargaming hobby to include fantasy elements, became one of the first role-playing games and an inspiration for many video games. Starting as a supplement for his wargames called Chainmail, Gygax added magical elements to engage players. With friend Dave Arneson, they expanded on this, forming the company Tactical Studies Rules to publish the seminal title Dungeons & Dragons in 1974. D&D went on to huge commercial success but also moral panics over its occult themes before being acquired by Wizards of the Coast and then Hasbro, who continue publishing new editions today.
Rhetoric of Advertising

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

WRA 150 Week 11 Hybrid Content
- 2. This Week: Hybrid 1)Announcements (two times!) 2)No Reading this week! Yay! 3)Forums 4)Tumblrs 5)What Phill has to say/what comes next 6)Due Date Reminders
- 3. Announcements! These will be quick and to the point. 1) Remember that we don’t have a lot of time left. Keep on top of due dates. 2) Thanksgiving is coming in 3 weeks. That week will be light work, but make sure you’re bearing in mind that it is coming. 3) I am still getting questions that are answered in the class materials. From this point on, if you ask one of those questions, I just won’t respond. So if I don’t respond to you, check class materials first.
- 4. More announcements I am still updating the weekly assignment grades for the last few weeks, but your Project 3 and Making 3 grades are posted. If you have an “i” listed in the grade book, it means you don’t have a grade yet but I know why. If you have a “0” you didn’t turn in the project and didn’t tell me why, so you got no credit.
- 5. More announcements! If you turned in project 3, you have a grade sheet, which you should have received via email. I offer minimal comments unless you ask for more, but you can always request a conference to talk about your work. We will have one more required conference this semester, next week. I will send you some prep questions to have in mind on Friday of this week. I will also re-open the Tungle, which has had no availability the last two weeks.
- 6. This week… We really have “everything” for class in play now, so this is the week where it starts to be very important that you can self-start. If you are worried about keeping up/getting everything done, let me know and we can set a plan for your work. DO NOT PUT THINGS OFF! It will come back to bite you.
- 7. No reading I had you read and watch a lot last week, so this week I want you to continue reflecting on all of that material. Your forum posts and Tumblr prompts will involve that previous work. I will also be uploading some audio (probably in video form just so I can toss in some title screen notes) about project 5 and research.
- 8. Forums One new forum (which you probably won’t be able to do until Tuesday at the earliest): Week 11: Care Bears and Cultures. I’m going to make a short slideshow of all the Care Bears you made last week. What I want you to do in this forum is talk about what we need to know to understand what each bear is/means. I’ll offer an example in the forum itself.
- 9. Other Forum Work We have three forums that I think have some interesting stuff going on right now. The week 9 Identity markers discussion, and the two forums for Week 10 (the Lessig one and the Obama poster one). I’d like each of you to respond to two posts in each of those forums (so six responses). Once people get started, you can also respond to responses. There is no required length, but try to make sure you add something to the discussion.
- 10. Tumblr Three again this week. I’ll go ahead and give you prompts, but if you’d rather write about something else for two and three, that’s fine. 1) Top 5 List: The Five Things I want to Know About my Major 2) Multimedia post: find something that uses a corporate logo for comedic purposes (a remix, adding it to something it doesn’t go with, etc.) 3) Reflection on class: what has been the hardest thing to do so far?
- 11. And that’s all… Trying to be low impact/high reflection this week. I will be posting some info about research, but otherwise, that’s all for this week. By Friday I will send you a conference prep sheet (we will conference NEXT week, on Tuesday the 16th-Thursday the 18th. As always, email or IM with questions.
- 12. Due Date Reminders Project 2 (audiocast) is due this Friday, November 12 Making 4 (which is a lot like what you just did in class) is due this Sunday, the 14th, with your weekly homework. Do not stress over this– get it done in an hour or two, tops. Project 4, the remix, is due on the 19th of November (a week from this Friday). Project 5 is due the day of our final, as is making 5.
