I feel using a Twine activity really demonstrates the use of hypertext in hands on activity and is such a suitable visual representation of linking information to other links. It was fun to be creative \u2013 but difficult to try and get Twine to do the things I wanted to do, and in the end turned out to be the most basic form, because I couldn\u2019t figure out how to add all the bells and whistles I initially planned for. However, through practice and some more time I think I\u2019d be able to one day create a more sophisticated version of what I created for this task.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When I started this task, I mapped it out first on paper writing out all the interconnected webs and questions I would be asking with appropriate responses to each. Creating a hand written \u201cmap\u201d before beginning to transcribe that into Twine made it much easier to create the twine links between the text. Having to think about it as I go I think would have been much more difficult because I had all the links already pre planned and written out which made it way more efficient. Through the use of Twine I was able to structure basically two different stories \u2013 based on the way questions were answered. Initially, I was hoping there would be a way to code each answer with some sort of scoring system so that depending on how many \u201cbridezilla\u201d questions you answered, at the end it would rank you as a \u201cbridezilla\u201d or a calm bride. I feel as if the use of Twine has brought the webbed hand written story I wrote to life onto the computer screen that you can change as you move through each question and chose a different response. Essentially, this process through the use of Twine has created a once hand written story on paper \u2013 into an interactive enhanced version of itself, demonstrating the power word processors can have on story telling and the art of writing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"post-excerpt\">ETEC 540_ TWINE TASK.html For my twine game i tried to put a humorous twist onto something i&#8217;m fully immersed&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":72411,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-etec-540","category-weekly-tasks"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/72411"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":59,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40\/revisions\/59"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec540melissanudds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
