DEMO - You are a teacher - OfSTED have given you 2 days notice and you must prepare and then face the 'Inspectors'. How will you do? Will your lessons be a fail? Will you forget your plenary? Will little Kieron in year 9 sabotage your lesson? How much reasonable force is reasonable with that awful year 10 class? A funny piss-take of inspections at school where you play the 'hero' in this choose-your-own adventure type game. Brought to you by www.maggiethatcher.com/ofsted.html

help needed with flash game on 8/14/2006 7:29:12 AM

Hi,
I have a flash game that's almost completed . You play a teacher and must throw objects at a child. If anyone is willing to help I can send you all the files. Thanks
My email is simonronaldwells 'at' yahoo.co.uk
P.s I forgot to say, I'm getting 6000 visitors a day to my site - www.milksnatcher.com so any link you add would get a great click-through rate.

Going to use MAG in the classroom on 10/26/2005 6:11:48 AM

What an educator would appreciate is having the forums disabled, and a class login that they could get from you in advance. If the kids wanted to create another account at home, fair enough, but teachers WOULD supervise what was being entered in the classroom. Before any game could be published, it should have to be proofread by a teacher who then enters a code (provided by you)

If you want any more help with this GREAT idea, then let me know (I'll even test your ideas out in the classroom)

How to insert pictures in game? on 10/26/2005 5:53:12 AM

It won't cut off the side if you do edit, select all, then attributes and change pixel size.

How to insert pictures in game? on 10/25/2005 7:01:09 AM

You can change the pixel size of a picture under 'Attributes'. Just put in the pixel size MAG require. 200x300?? can't remember.

I'm actually thinking of using myadventuregame.com in the classroom - Kids'd love making a complicated choose your own adventure game. I tried it once using index cards, but it got too complicated. This way the kids could write a story and have it published in no time at all. Well done MAG.

Yahoo! managed to recruit a real-life villain on 10/23/2005 12:33:38 PM

A school OfSTED inspector has agreed to become a 'wandering monster' in my game, see this thread-

http://www.tes.co.uk/section/staffroom/thread.aspx?story_id=2146454&path=/inspection/&threadPage=1

Not a villain to most of you, I'm sure - but to teachers!!!!

At the moment there's only one way to find him. Still at the start.

Can you find him?
