But, is it social distancing that we are really trying to others is one of life’s encourage, or is it physical distancing? From the Innovative LIFE Options perspective, we understand how important relationships greatest joys, you are and we believe social connection is what we need to realize that life’s encourage during this pandemic; alongside physical distancing. best comes when WHAT IS PHYSICAL DISTANCING? you initiate and It turns out we are not alone in the belief that we got off on the invest in solid wrong foot when coming up with the term social distancing. We are now seeing a push to change our wording and start using the relationships.” — phrase physical distancing. The government of Canada has even John C. Maxwell changed their resources to promote the new term, physical distancing. WHAT DOES PHYSICAL DISTANCING MEAN? PRACTICING PHYSICAL This means making changes in your everyday DISTANCING routines in order to minimize close contact with others, including: avoiding crowded places and non-essential gatherings greet with a wave avoiding common greetings, such as handshakes instead of a limiting contact with people at higher risk (e.g. older adults and handshake, a kiss or a those in poor health) hug keeping a distance of at least 2 arms lengths (approximately 2 stay home as much as metres) from others, as much as possible possible, including for meals and If possible, entertainment use food delivery services or online shopping shop or take public exercise at home or outside transportation during work from home off-peak hours conduct virtual Remember to: meetings host virtual wash your hands often for at least 20 seconds playdates for your avoid touching your face kids cough or sneeze into the bend of your arm use technology to keep avoid touching surfaces people touch often in touch with friends and family For more information on physical distancing please visit https://www.canada.ca/en/public- health/services/publications/diseases-conditions/social- distancing.html SOCIAL CONNECTION Great! Now that we all agree that physical distance, not social distance is what we need, let’s talk about social connection. Did you know those who live their lives in isolation, with few to no relationships, are more susceptible to significant health risks? On the other hand, relationships build self-esteem, they improve mental and emotional health and help you live a fuller life. Having relationships contribute to long, healthy, and happy lives. Therefore, social connections are what we need to be encouraging right now. How do we promote social connection and community engagement when we can’t leave our homes? This resource has been created to give you some ideas of how to encourage building relationships and staying connected. STAYING ENGAGED WITH YOUR COMMUNITY Just because we are practicing physical distancing, doesn’t mean we can’t find ways to engage in community. People can feel a sense of togetherness just by sharing in an interest or common theme. Helping others or asking for help reminds us we are not in this alone. Staying engaged builds community and helps us all grow stronger. WHAT CAN YOU DO? Sign up for Help Next Door Manitoba: Help Next Door Manitoba is a network of helpers coming together as a community. Sign up to be a helper or receive help here: https://helpnextdoormb.ca/ Organize a neighbourhood pod. Pods are neighbours who actively choose to stay involved in each other’s lives. Visit the link below to learn how you can set up your own neighbourhood pod. How to Start a Neighbourhood Pod: https://docs.google.com/document/d/17iMBTzaM4tPsUym- wyiEqOcOAiHVKiXN3XSjJ26TBKM/edit#heading=h.gdpwagieen0s Be a part of the care mongering movement. Drop off a card, supplies or a treat to a neighbour or a struggling caregiver. Create your own team or support network. Reach out to neighbours, family and friends and invite them to join your network. If you are struggling, assign roles and ask for help. Work on your front yard, be seen and let others know you see them too. Set up a table of supplies in your front yard to share with neighbours. Put up your Christmas lights and encourage your community to do the same. Go for a walk around your neighbourhood. Don’t forget to say hi to others! Wave at your neighbours when you see them. The practice of physical distancing can sometimes give the impression of pushing people away. Try to be more intentional in letting others know you see them, you miss them and you are glad they are here. Virtually start up a club or resume an existing club that stopped meeting. Set up a Zoom video call with your book club, cooking class, prayer group or card group… If you aren’t already, try joining different social media options. Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Linked In; these are all virtual ways you can connect with communities of interest and geographic communities, without leaving your own home. WHAT CAN YOU DO? CONTINUED Join your local community Facebook page or a community of interest Facebook page. Join the conversation Go live! Live stream yourself on Facebook.

Check in on your friends and neighbours. Give them a call and see how they are doing and if they need anything. Do they have enough food and supplies? Make an extra meal and drop it off. “Any one of us can pick up a phone and call to see how people are doing and what they might need. Not only will helping others potentially help them, but it can help us to still feel connected as well.” — Julianne Holt- Lunstad, Brigham Young University MAINTAINING STRONG RELATIONSHIPS AT HOME Tensions can rise as we deal with cabin fever and the growing responsibilities and adaptations in our homes. Finding balance between spending time together and finding time for yourself is important. We are supplying a list of ideas of things to do as a family or roommates, and things to try on your own.

  • What Is Casual Gaming?
    CHAPTER ONE What Is Casual Gaming? Over the past several years, the term “ casual game ” has been bandied about quite a bit. It gets used to describe so many different types of games that the definition has become rather blurred. But if we look at all of the ways that “ casual ” gets used, we can begin to tease out common elements that inform the design of these games: ● Rules and goals must be clear. ● Players need to be able to quickly reach proficiency. ● Casual game play adapts to a player’s life and schedule. ● Game concepts borrow familiar content and themes from life. While all game design should take these issues into account, these elements are of particular importance if you want to reach a broad audience beyond traditional gamers. This book will look at elements that a wide array of casual games share and draw out common lessons for approaching game design. Hopefully it will be of use not just to casual game designers, but to all game designers and even general experience designers as well. Everywhere you look these days, you see impact of casual games. More than 200 million people play casual games on the Internet, according to the Casual Games Association. This audience generated revenues in excess of $2.25 billion in 2007. 1 This may seem meager compared to the $41 billion posted by the entire game indus- try worldwide,2 but casual games currently rank as one of the fastest growing sec- tors of the game industry. As growth in the rest of the industry stagnated, the casual downloadable market barreled ahead.

  • Game Development Does Not Require Large Up-Front Capital Costs
    2. The recent disruption to the Irish economy may provide a boon to this sector. Casual game development does not require large up-front capital costs. It is, however, affected by the cost of office space and relevant talent. The broad reduction in the Irish cost base will likely improve our competitiveness in this field. 3. Ireland already has a flourishing technology sector which can provide broad support to the games industry. The key platforms, such as Facebook, have large Dublin offices. Infrastructure, in the form of server farms provided by companies such as Amazon, is available locally. These businesses are, in turn, supported by a wealth of quality graduates and research being produced by third-level Game On! institutions. The universities have long realised the importance of this sector. Trinity College has arguably Philip Nolan (pic), Partner at Mason Hayes & Curran and Oisin Tobin, Mason Hayes & Curran led the way with a dedicated MSc in Interactive Entertainment Technology.

    PLAYFUL DESIGN Game design is a sibling to software and web design, but they’re siblings that grew up in different houses. Yet these two disciplines have much more in common than their perceived distinction typically suggests. In Playful Design, John Ferrara shows how user experience practitioners can achieve great things in the real world through game design. by JOHN FERRARA by JOHN “For UX designers eager to go beyond simple points and badges, it’s been hard to find resources that truly bridge the worlds of UX and game design.
