The show starred Rod Taylor, Tony Becker, Darleen Carr, Charles Napier, and Ken Swofford. Although it was canceled after six episodes, the remaining seven episodes were still aired on BBC 2 in the U.K. In June 2010, the entire series was released on DVD in the USA. The story of the Oregon Trail inspired a popular educational computer game of the same name, The Oregon Trail. The game became widely popular in the 1980s and early 1990s. Several sequels to the game were also released, such as The Oregon Trail II, The Yukon Trail, and The Amazon Trail. The game resurfaced in 2008 when Gameloft created an updated version for cell phones. Since 2000, the Oregon Trail Ultramarathon Series has provided a fun opportunity for ultra runners to measure their performances and compete. And of course there’s our Regional tournament!!!

  • All of These Drawbacks Are Just Things We Haven't Seen in a Mystery/T
    of the novel, I was riveted. I mean, think about it: all of these drawbacks are just things we haven’t seen in a mystery/thriller/ghost story before. A lawyer that is as corrupt as the accused; a main character fighting not to know the truth; a whole town that forgets. Those are pretty interesting in themselves. Maybe the interest in the novel should come from the fact that it is so dif- ferent than others: literary, character-driven, a mixture of genres, exciting, funny. This novel does what I wish others did—reach for more than has been reached for before. I just wish the reader could have grabbed all of it too. Jerome Stueart is finishing his PhD in English/Creative Writing at Texas Tech Uni- versity, but is staying one year at Yukon College as a Fulbright Scholar, writing a novel about northern biologists and northern wildlife.

Simply by asking the right questions and putting in ten years of dedicated research to answer them, Jeanne A. Murray has filled at least one gaping hole in the history. A sociologist, amateur musician, and longtime Alaskan, Murray has com- piled a fascinating, focused compendium representing stampeder musical life in the Yukon and Alaska at the time of the Klondike Gold Rush.

  • The Oregon Trail by Dr
    The Oregon Trail By Dr. Francisco J. Collazo March 11, 2014 Acknowledgement All information is derived from the cited bibliography. I want to acknowledge Billie Foster, Director of Administration, for editing this report. Scope: The Oregon Trail Report is comprised of Annex A and B. Annex A addresses the exploration, development and establishment of the Oregon Trail from Missouri to Oregon. Annex B outlines the chronology of the Oregon Trail development. Annex A: History of the Oregon Trail Introduction The Oregon Trail reference is in Figure 1. It is the overland pioneer route to the northwestern United States. About 3200 km (about 2000 mi) long, the trail extended from Independence, Missouri to the Columbia River in Oregon. Part of the route followed the Platte River for 870 km (540 mi) through what is now Nebraska to Fort Laramie in present-day Wyoming. The trail continued along the North Platte and Sweetwater rivers to South Pass in the Wind River Range of the Rocky Mountains. From there, the main trail went south to Fort Bridger, Wyoming, before turning into the Bear River valley and north to Fort Hall in present-day Idaho. In Idaho, the Oregon Trail followed the Snake River to the Salmon Falls and then went north past Fort Boise (now Boise). The route entered what is now Oregon, passed through the Grand Ronde River Valley, crossed the Blue Mountains and through a small portion of present-day Washington before reaching the Columbia River. Figure 1 - Oregon Trail 1 Originally, like many other main routes in the United States, sections of the Oregon Trail had been used by Native Americans and trappers.

  • Design De Um Jogo Educativo: a Narrativa Interativa
    UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE BELAS-ARTES DESIGN DE UM VIDEOJOGO EDUCATIVO A Narrativa Interativa Beatriz Batista Cabeleira Trabalho de Projeto Mestrado em Design de Comunicação e Novos Media Trabalho de Projeto orientado pela Prof. Doutora Sónia Rafael 2017 DECLARAÇÃO DE AUTORIA Eu Beatriz Batista Cabeleira, declaro que o presente trabalho de projeto de mestrado intitulado “Design de um Videojogo Educativo”, é o resultado da minha investigação pessoal e independente. O conteúdo é original e todas as fontes consultadas estão devidamente mencionadas na bibliografia ou outras listagens de fontes documentais, tal como todas as citações diretas ou indiretas têm devida indicação ao longo do trabalho segundo as normas académicas. O Candidato Beatriz Batista Cabeleira Lisboa, 30 de Novembro de 2017 1 RESUMO Os primeiros videojogos educativos surgiram na década de 1980 e começaram por ser bem recebidos pela indústria. No entanto, a massificação da sua produção e distribuição – assim como a comercialização sem investigação prévia de suporte – levaram a uma queda acentuada na qualidade da oferta destes videojogos. Até hoje, os jogos educativos são recebidos pelos jogadores com algum cepticismo, mas não devemos ignorar o seu potencial enquanto meio. A presente investigação procura compreender de que formas pode o videojogo ser aplicado na transmissão de informação ou conhecimento, aplicando a narrativa enquanto estrutura. O desenvolvimento e exploração deste tema parte de princípios e componentes de game design, paradigmas e teorias de aprendizagem (nomeadamente o paradigma construtivista), assim como de estruturas de narrativas interativas ou imersivas. Como suporte para a narrativa, para a imersão e para a aprendizagem, a investigação explora o conceito de Monomito (ou a “Jornada do Herói”) proposta por Joseph Campbell – uma estrutura narrativa presente na maioria dos mitos, lendas e obras literárias ou cinemáticas imersivas.

  • Round 3 Bonuses.Pdf
    Kirk Jing, Will Alston, Nick Jensen Modern World Tournament 2014 Round #3 Bonuses 1. Jimmy Carter penned a book in which he claimed to support peace over this concept in Palestine. For 10 points each: [10] Give this term, often used to describe Israel despite it having no legislation resembling the Population Registration Act, Group Areas Act, Mixed Marriages and Immorality Act or other South African laws. ANSWER: apartheid state [10] The closest approximation of apartheid-style economic exploitation is in this rapidly urbanizing country, where the BBC wrote about “peasant apartheid” denying peasants and migrant workers public healthcare, education, housing, and employment thanks to its household registration system. ANSWER: PRC [or People’s Republic of China; accept Mainland China or Dàlù or Communist China or really anything that indicates we’re not talking about Taiwan; prompt on China or Zhōngguó with, “Which one?”] [10] Peasants are de facto second class citizens in China because of this household registration system, which distinguishes them from urban elites. Analogous systems in Japan and Korea are the koseki and hoju systems, which they also tie to citizenship. ANSWER: hukou system [prompt on family registration system] 2. These municipalities are often some of the strongest parts of Russia’s Red Belt, places that tend to vote predominately for the Russian Communist Party. For 10 points each: [10] Name these municipalities, which are typically filled with universities and colleges. Examples include Obninsk, Koltsovo, Dubna, Reutov and Koroylov, home of the Russian space program. ANSWER: naukograds [accept translations like science cities] [10] Roscosmos operates the Baikonur Cosmodrone, the largest space port in the world.

    SIMULATED SPECIES: THE QUESTION OF THE ANIMAL IN DIGITAL GAMES By MELISSA BIANCHI A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2018 © 2018 Melissa Bianchi To Crissy, my first and best Player 2 To my loving parents who always find time for playfulness To all the animals who mystify and inspire me ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This research was supported by the Department of English and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Florida. I would like to express my deepest appreciation to my committee chair, Dr. Terry Harpold, who has taught me more than I could ever say here. By his example, he has shown me what a good mentor, scholar, and person should be. This dissertation would not have been possible without his encouragement and understanding. I would also like to express my gratitude to my committee members, Dr. Sidney I. Dobrin, Dr. Susan Hegeman, and Dr. Susan deFrance. Through their extensive personal and professional guidance, I have learned a great deal about academic research, writing, publishing, and life in general. I am also grateful to my colleagues who devoted time and energy to provide me with thoughtful feedback on this work and related scholarship. The insights they have shared have played a significant role in shaping the direction of my research. And finally, last but by no means least, I thank my family, friends, and animal companions whose love inspired and sustained me throughout this process.
