Assessing the programming chops of a candidate based on how well they can remember a particular syntax is so weird.
I've been programming for literally more than 30 years, and I still make totally rookie mistakes and forget stuff.
It's OK people. Programming != Trivia Contest.

The work of <em>Design Forward</em> is to think about what \u201ccritical instructional design\u201d might look like. The approach will \u201cemphasize faculty ownership and autonomy to develop flexible and custom learning experiences.\u201d This language has me thinking about designing other kinds of experiences which always leads me to thinking about game design.</p>\n<p>I regularly teach a class called <em>Creating Games</em>, which is about creating tabletop games. One of the frameworks that we use in that class is the <a href=\"https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228884866_MDA_A_Formal_Approach_to_Game_Design_and_Game_Research\">MDA Framework</a>, by Robin Hunicke, Marc LeBlanc (no relation!), and .Robert Zubek. In this framework, the experience of the players as they play the game is an explicit consideration and, although the analogy isn\u2019t perfect, perhaps using this framework can help us to think explicitly about designing learning experiences in our classes.</p>\n<p>MDA stands for Mechanics, Dynamics, and Aesthetics. The mechanics of a game are the rules and other structural materials of the game. The dynamics of a game are what happens when you put the mechanics into action, when players actually play the game. And the aesthetics of the game are ways that the player experiences the game, the feelings and emotions that the player has while playing. For example, the mechanics of <em>Tic-Tac-Toe</em> are that the players draw a 3\u00d73 grid and take turns placing their marks in the empty spaces of the grid. If someone is able to put 3 of their mark in a row, column, or diagonal on the grid, they win the game. If the grid has no empty spaces left and no one has won the game, the game ends in a draw. The dynamics of the game are initiated when two players come together to play the game. Even with the same rules and the same players, no two instances of playing <em>Tic-Tac-Toe</em> are exaclty alike. As a player is playing the game, they will have an emotional response. This response is the aesthetics described in the MDA framework. Note that the aesthetics are not something built into the game itself but instead are a reaction to playing the game. In the case of <em>Tic-Tac-Toe</em>, little kids often become obsessed with the game and they want to play over and over. Once they figure out the pattern of optimal play in the game (so that every game ends in a draw), they become bored with the game. They have learned everything they can about the game. The game hasn\u2019t changed but the player has.</p>\n<p>One of the things I like about this model is that Hunicke, et al. describe MDA as a set of lenses through which we can view the game. The player views the game first from their experience of it, the aesthetics. Then, they might think about the particular instance of game play (dynamics) that gave rise to their experience of the game and then, maybe, they would think about how the dynamics were put into play by the particular mechanics of the game. (Most players don\u2019t think about how the mechanics of the game give rise to the particular dynamics of the game but in my class, I ask students to analyze games in exactly this way as a means to more deeply understand how games work.) The game designer, on the other hand, views the game first from the perspective of what they are designing, the mechanics, that is, the materials, the rules, and the other structural elements of the game. The game designer might then observe a play-testing session, to see the game in action, to understand the dynamics of a particular instance of game play. In a play-testing session, the game designer might then explictily ask the player questions about their experience but they might also observe instances of enjoyment or frustration or boredom. Observing such aesthetics or reactions to the game, the game designer might rethink the mechanics of the game, making changes to improve the aesthetic exprience of the player. The figure below showst hese lenses and how they interact. <img src=\"https://i1.wp.com/cathieleblanc.com/wp-content/uploads/MDA-1.png?resize=1024%2C197&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" /></p>\n<p>Hunicke, et al. go on to explain that these various lenses means that designing games is a second-order design problem. That is, the game designer cannot directly design the dynamics to evoke the desired aesthetics. The game designer designs the mechanics which result in different dynamics each time the game is played which then evokes various aesthetics in the players. The same player might actually have (and usually does have) a completely different experience the second or third or fourth time they play a game. The goal of the game designer is to put in place mechanics that are most likely to evoke the desired aesthetics in most players most of the time. This is a really challenging task!</p>\n<p>What does this have to do with instructional design? In many ways, instructional designers (teachers) are similar to game designers while learners in a classroom are similar to players.

The student experience of the mechanics in action are the aesthetics described by the MDA Framework. Until the teacher sees the particular learners interacting with the mechanics they have designed, there is really no way to know whether those learners will experience what we want them to (that is, learning). In fact, all teachers have probably encountered situations in which the same mechanics (lesson plans, class activities, etc.) are put into action by different sets of learners and create very different dynamics and, therefore, very different aesthetics.

In the updated special effects for Trek:TOS “The Doomsday Machine”, they show the damaged Constellation doing a Dutch roll as it enters the maw. Really nice way to back up
Scotty’s dialog on how hard it’ll be to control with the warp drive controls cross-connected to impulse.

Just days before the 10th anniversary of the Smallest Federated Wiki, Ward Cunningham will be talking about the future of note taking tomorrow morning.
Free registration for the event at I Annotate 2021 should still be open.
There are also expected appearances by Daniel Doyon, Co-Founder of Readwise; Tienson Qin, Creator/Founder of LogSeq; Oliver Sauter, Founder of WorldBrain/Memex, and Flancian of the Anagora.
With any luck, it may help mark a resurgence of digital versions of the commonplace book on the order of magnitude represented by the works of Rudolphus Agricola, Desiderius Erasmus, and Philip Melanchthon during the Renaissance.
