End of Month: October 2010

[ailelie]

Congratulations everyone on making it through the first month of build_a_world! October is generally a busy time of year, so if you didn't finish yet, don't worry. You can post your finished work at the end of next month.

This month was about creating your playground. This could have taken place through maps, dioramas, detailed notes, or whatever medium works best for you.

Please post links to your finished work in the comments below. Be sure to put your name and the name of your project in the subject line.

Please comment on one another's work and offer ideas and encouragement.

Next month we'll be doing ecosystems, so you may wish to start thinking about the flora, fauna, and resources in your playground.

From reading over some of the comments in the talk posts over the past month, it seems that the size of the challenge may be a bit unwieldy or intimidating, especially during busy months.

For those that feel this way, would an optional weekly mini-challenge be helpful? The mini-challenges would be designed that accomplishing each would ensure finishing the monthly challenge on time.

Another idea is to make the monthly challenge smaller in scope.

If either of these options appeal to you, or if you have another idea, please comment below. Please also comment if you feel that such measures are unneeded.

Thank you.
