 * __Progress Report #1__ **

So far in the project I have made a lot of progress on the hands on part of my project. I have started work on two styles of games and I should be able to have three done by the next progress report. I’m actually ahead of a few of my goals because I have two game types picked out and I also have a lot of their programming done. On the paper part however I’m falling a little behind in turning some of the work in. I decided that from now on I’m going to do the work ahead of time so that way if I get too busy I already have the work ready and I can just turn it in instead of starting a certain part a day before its due. So far my mentor has help me keep track of what I turned in and what I missed so that I don’t forget about anything.

I have made a lot of progress on both my hands on and my research parts of my project. So far in my hands on part I have decided to just make one game but make it in different styles which will show the evolution in game graphics and sound. Ont the research part of the project Ive gathered a lot of information and all of my main topics (evolution of games, evolution of technology, how games help people) and I'm now working on the research paper.

My goals for this project are to create a research paper that shows how games have evolved with technology and to also make a game that can show that. Another one of my goals is to not fall behind this marking period and to keep up with my work. So far I'm achieving all of my goals but I think that I could be a little more on top of my research paper so that I can reach the 5 page minimum.

__//GOALS//__ 1) Start the 3D Game which will show an upgrade in graphics from 2D 2) Finnish the research report 3) Finnish the 2D game which will show how games have evolved

My mentor hasn't really done much in the last week because she has been really busy. I haven't really asked anyone for help but I have looked on the internet for help on problems that I encountered when starting the game.

__**Progress Report #3**__

So far my project is going pretty well. The final paper has already been turned in and the only parts I have left are my power point presentation and my hands on project. My current goals are to increase my speaking skills so that I don't mess up on my presentation. Another one of my goals is to start my power point project and do it correctly so that I have all of my thoughts organized. One of my goals that I didn't accomplish is to make a 3D game. I wanted to make a 3D game to show today graphics and engines but I realized that any game I would only show game technology from about 8 years ago so I had to give up on that project. My mentor and topic expert have given me a lot of ideas as to how I should present my project so they have helped me out a lot.

for the most par my projects done. My report has finished, the hands on is finished, and the power point is about 90% finished. One of the changes that I made with my hands on project is that last progress report I said that I wouldn't be able to make a game that shows today's graphics but after talking with my mentor it turns out that it is possible for one person to make a game that VISUALLY matches today's graphics so on making a 3D game.
