hey
i use desume on both my macintosh, and my windows 7 pc, and on both i have downloaded the same super scribblenauts rom, but i think different versions of desume, one for mac and one for pc. the on on my pc works fine, but on the mac the desume screen just stays white, and at the bar at the bottom it says executing, all the time, unless i have not put a rom in yet... help please.

I made a level where you simply must get to the starite through a series of tunnels. But, the starite is guarded by a colossal invisible evil angry armed magic deadly invincible supersonic winged cthulu o.o
Also, along the way you meet a fertile woman So, so wrong

Ridable. It allows you to ride on anything, meaning you can sit on top of a castle and make it move around.
Colossal. Makes everything huge.
Flying. Makes everything fly, which is epic. n_n
Neon colours. Because they're pretty. c:
Tame ridable flying cute colossal man-eating plant. Because it's epic to ride a huge man eating plant that can fly.
Transparent. Because I like spirits.

I make tiny ridable flying pieces of paper, and become nearly invincible. I'm pretty sure your hitbox changes into that of the object your riding on, so your hitbox turns super tiny and you can fly through cracks in the wall etcetera. o_o

I like the Time Machine. And I'm pretty sure you can make a working Arcade Machine. Can't you make your evil clone somehow, grab his book, and then use it to spawn random objects too? I haven't played in a long time.

You know, when you use the Time Machine, sometimes you can go back to the first level of the first Scribblenauts game, and see yourself standing by that famous lone tree.Also, you can appear in an area just as you see yourself getting into the time machine to leave. It's quite entertaining! XD

Just keep randomly transporting to different times with the time machine. It takes takes some time and luck, but eventually instead of going to wherever you selected, you will go to that level instead.

Finally, a superhero with vocabulary as his power. Super Scribblenauts is a Nintendo DS game that offers imagination and individual experiences every round. The app makes room for infinite amounts of interactions and could help lead students towards a more diverse set of vocabulary.

Each level acts is presented as a scenario where the hero, Maxwell, must reach a star using only vocabulary. For example, the player is shown a beach scene and must use words and short phrases to assist a group into having a beach party. Words such as "volleyball net" and "sunscreen" may help Max reach his star. There are many different ways to complete a level, which adds to the idea that each individual gamer has a unique experience. Continuing with our beach party example, another user may add "bonfire" and "frisbee" to have an entirely different beach party that would sill give Maxwell his star. Once completing the round, the user is given a silver crown to signify that the level is finished. However, the game can become more difficult once a user knows that they are able to receive a gold crown when completing the level three separate times, each time with new words.

The game is equipped with thousands of words to help make the experience more natural. You can add adjectives in front of nouns to create a more "advanced" scene, or stick with simple words that will help Maxwell get his star. It can create motivation within users to become more creative inside the scenarios; the options are limitless. The game is simply there to help give users the guidelines to creating remarkable stories and the ability to have a choose-your-own-adventure within technology.

I have been thinking a lot about how a Nintendo DS could be used in the classroom, and although it seems like it would be a simple implication, there are some limits. Even if the students were to share the Nintendo DS as a device and keep it inside the classroom, they would still all need to have their own game/account. Once words are used once in the game, you cannot pass that same level without using different words. Once one classmate has used one word, it could then hinder the creativity and imagination of another student. Sharing a game could also be beneficial if it was seen as more of a group collaboration piece; students could pass levels quickly within a competitive atmosphere by utilizing team members and completing the level faster than the other groups. This then poses the question of having more than one Nintendo DS in each classroom.

Kathy Schrock encouraged all students that evaluating apps and resources on the internet in an important information literacy skill. In reference to Super Scribblenauts, the game is guided by the rubric that Schrock created to help students evaluate content based apps. The game votes "yes" for Curriculum Connection, Authenticity, Differentiation, User Friendliness, Student Motivation, Sound, Instructions, Navigation, and Modalities. However, this app does not give consistent Feedback in a way that is measurable is hard to Report back to the teacher without the teacher seeing how the student completed each level. The app checks far less in the "no" column than it does in the "yes" column, which leads me to believe that this app would be successful for students to use in an English classroom.

The pros and cons are important to discuss with other teachers, and possibly students, when wanting to incorporate new technology into the classroom. As I continue to explore apps that could benefit my students, I have come to the understanding that there are so many ways in which a teacher can use technology. Using new resources, such as a DS, or downloading new apps onto computers already in the school are both great ways to make students aware of technology. My future English classroom could use this game to expand on uncommon vocabulary that resonates with the students while giving the class a structured, free range as to how they want to complete the assignment. Never fear, Super Scribblenauts is here!
