Can machinima get
around the obstacles?
"Aula de formació" by Zezinho72 - Own work. Licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0 via Wikimedia Common
Machinima is the use of real-
time computer graphics
engines to create a cinematic
production. Most often video
games are used to generate
the computer animation.
Creating video clips directed
by the teacher to indicate or
highlight a learning
opportunity which can then
be up-loaded to Youtube or
VLE. But Twitch.tv is …….
How to extend the
learning?
Promoting Literacy &
Numeracy focus on in game
reading, out of game
reading, cross curricular
with other subjects.
"Assassin's Creed Unity is a
mainstream video game, not a
history lesson”
