This was really boring. You didn't do anything with the mouse, you just clicked the button and it would pour for you. I did find it interesting how she was talking about all of the different particles and how some causes cancer, and others can prevent it. They had really boring voices and it was rather lame. It was interesting though, because she was using so many new different scientific terms. One of the things I would like to ask, is that what do all of the scientific terms mean? We are not learning about this in science class, so I do not know. Another thing I would like to ask is how do nanoparticles actually help in real life, Dr. Winter says that nanoengineering is interesting and fun, but it looks really really really boring.
This was very boring, as Gracie said. The interactive activities were very easy. It seemed like it was for littler children, but even kids our age would be so overwhelmed that the activities and information fell by the wayside. Some of the content was interesting, but I was so overwhelmed and so bored that I didn't really register all of it in my brain. The parts I did pick up were sort of interesting, but if they could have laid less on me than I would have had fun, and learned more. They were just going on and on and on and on for what seemed like such a long time. What I would have to say about this whole thing is that it was lame activities complemented by the fact that I almost felt like leaving after the first few sentences.
I thought, like Gracie and Nick, that this video was really quite boring. I used to always play a game on EdHead where you operate on patients, and they were really fun, but this video wasn't as interactive and entertaining. They kind of just gave you all this information in a little time, you were like... WHat did she just say?? I thought the video was informative though. It was so boring, I didn't get through the video for the first time. I had to start to watch it agin after 10 minutes or so. Overall, I think it could've been better by not being so informative that you don't really remember what they just said.
I thought the same thing. Really, it was kind of boring and should have had a lot more interactive activities. I also thought that they were just going on and on and on and on about this stuff. I forgot about half of the information 5 minutes after i finished the game because it really was data dumping. To data dump is to give way to much info in a short amount of time and there is nothing that better describes the video. I was very informative, but I would have remembered more if it was more interactive and fun.
I agree with everyone else. This video was very boring. It should have been more interactive. All though it was full of information, it was overwhelming. It would just keep talking and talking. The actual information was quite informative. Also, there were a few things I did not understand, like the scientific terms. In the video they make it seem nano-engineering is fun, but it seems it is really boring.
This interactive game looked really fun. It was really really boring. All you did was click the mouse. It had a really interesting premise, but failed to deliver. There was too much talking. You do need to explain the game, but instead of giving us a long lecture at the beginning try to actually make it interactive, and don't give us the explanation all at once. A better game would tell you more about nano-engineering and have more things to click on and stuff to do.
This was a little game that was really annoying, and that I didn't get much out of but I think that it is cool to be able to make brain tumors glow and all that but it didn't really say how, it seemed like it was for 3 year olds,
This was an okay game, but not the great. In the beggining a was really interesting, but aster a while, it got to long and really boring. Although it was a litle lengthy, I really learned a lot about particles. A thing that I didn't like is that they would mention so meny kinds of elements and particles that I would get so confused. It seemed as they expected for us to know all of these elements. Overall, good but boring and long.
I also thought that this was really boring. When I clicked on it, I thought it was going to be a game were you would actually preform the surgery. Instead all they did was talked and talked and it got super boring. I wish you could actually operate but instead you just sat there and listened to their lecture.
I agree with Nick. This program took me almost 45 minutes to finish, and once I did, I could barely remember anything because of how long and boring some of the steps were. Some of the things in the beginning were interesting, but it lost me when they went into the particles. It would have been good if you could go at your own pace. It said it was designed for 10th-12th grade but it is more like for 1st-3rd grade. If they would have made it shorter it would have been much better.
That was a really long "game." I finished the entire thing after forty minutes and I never went through particle number two. The "game" could have been much much much much shorter. What's interesting is what they're doing with nano-particles and cancer and MRIs, not every single boring step they took to make the nano-particles. The idea was good, but the design was bad.
I thought the whole game was boring. I was so bored that I wasn't paying attention or learning. I think they could've added a little more fun. If the game was a little more fun, I think I probably would have learned SOMETHING.

I thought this was a bad game because it never let you do anything and it was way to long. It just talked and talked and talked.

I thought it did nothing you don't learn anything, you don't do anything and you couldn't even understand because you forgot everything
