Day 27

大家好，我叫 Flora，是一名大三学生。在过去的四年多时间里，我有幸能成为志上学习中心的志愿者之一。 志上学习中心是一个非盈利的学习中心，致力于帮助华人社区的家庭更好的融入当地的文化与生活。因为偶然的机会，我参加了志上的吉他兴趣班，之后还报名成为了这里的英文班助教，这个暑假也很高兴成为了英文班的一名老师。非常感谢志上的信任，给了我很多锻炼自己的机会。当志愿者最开心的事是可以看到学生的进步，还有看到每个来到志上的人因为参加志上的活动而收获快乐。在这期间我还参与过很多志上组织的课外活动比如说各类讲座和参观大学等，还有圣诞晚会这样的庆祝活动。通过这些活动，我结交了很多朋友，也留下了很多快乐的回忆。从高中到大学，志上见证了我的成长，我也见证了志上的成长。我相信以后志上也会越来越好，继续帮助有需要的人。

This is the first time for me to teach an online gaming design class and I’m impressed by how well the students did with this online format. Also, this class was in the summer, which was super short, I’m really surprised how far the students had gotten in just six weeks. Since we have only two hours of meetings per week, the students had only about 12 hours of actual class
time to learn how to build a game from scratch. This might sound crazy, but most of the students were able to learn basic programming, creating 3d objects, designing a game mechanic, basic level design, and design a game UI in this short course. Even though there were a lot of technical difficulties that the students had to deal with, they didn’t lose patience and give up.
Overall, the students did well in the class and managed to create their first game.
