Hello! This is Maya.
This is going to be a lost post. Today I will talk about the reflection of the class. Tell you the truth, before I took this class, I thought that it would be very easy to get degrees by playing Minecraft but truth is that it was really hard to get it because I had never played Minecraft before. Especially, at the first week and month it was so hard all I could was just follow the class. As I wrote that I had never played Minecraft before but, the class gave me an opportunity to play Minecraft. It was my first time that I had played Minecraft. There were a lot of tasks during the semester which caused a lot of problems. Moreover, there were many quest challenges. Most of quest challenges were not so difficult except making a game in Minecraft. One last thing, we had a blog post. When I heard that I have to post a blog every week at the very begging of the class, I was like “what should I write about?”. At the first month, it was really difficult to post a blog, even though I didn’t understand and what Minecraft is. The more I played Minecraft, the more I was getting used to play Minecraft. Once I got used to play Minecraft, I got a fun playing Minecraft and I got a lot of things that I could post a blog. Next, I would talk about projects. We had three projects. Most of projects were with a partner or group. These project game an opportunity to make a big sculpture or machine that something I cannot do alone. All of projects were very fun because it is a great idea to do projects as a team and we can create a big and difficult thing with group member. As an assignment, I had to take a screen video 8-10 minutes and upload to YouTube, I had never uploaded a video to YouTube also. It was a great chance to know how to upload a video to YouTube and how to take a screen video and a screen shoot with Mac computer. In conclusion, I had a really great fun playing Minecraft during the semester. I thought I’m not going to play Minecraft after the class finishes but I might play Minecraft. Like I wrote, there is no final goal in Minecraft, I can decide my goal and even though once I archived my goal, there is always another goal. The more I search about Minecraft, the more I find interesting facts of Minecraft. Thank you for teaching me how Minecraft interesting is and I could understand why Minecraft is so popular around the world.

Hello! This is Maya.
How are you doing today? I made an automatic door in my house because I had to complete the quest challenges which say I have to make a something with using red stones. The reason I made the automatic door is that it is annoying to click to enter my house, every time I had to right click and I was watching a YouTube video, one of Minecraft Youtubers made an automatic door, when I was thinking what I should do for the quest challenge. This door is really cool. I thought making machine with using red stone would be little bit complicated but it was not so difficult than I expected. As I mentioned last post. I was working on collecting many squid ink this week. In order to collect squid ink, I made an efficient machine which I can get squid ink automatically. When I searched “how to video” of making the machine, it looked like it would be easy making the machine. However, it was quite difficult to make the machine.
There are rules to work the machine correctly. Rules
When I made the first squid machine, it didn’t work. Even though I tried to figure it out, I couldn’t. I think that the reason the machine didn’t work correctly is that there is sea close to the machine. I thought it would be fine because there is enough distance between the machine and sea. And I made a second squid machine. It also didn’t work correctly. I made a third squid machine. Finally, it worked. It took a lot of time to finish making the squid machine. Next, I’m going to tell you about how the machine works. Once squids spawn, they will fall down automatically, and once they fall down, they will suffocate out of the water. Under the water, I lie normal rails and powered rails which is used to increase or decrease the velocity of moving minecarts. Also, I set a minecart with chest. By doing so, the minecart with chest move automatically on the rail, and automatically collect squid ink after squids are suffocated. Hello everyone. This is Maya.
How are you doing? First, I would like to introduce our group member. Nonoko and Sayo is our member. I’m going to do the final project with them. We are going to make No-Face(Kaonashi) from Sprited Away. The reason we decided to make Kaonashi is Nonoko and I have made a machine which is an iron golem machine as a previous project so, this time we thought that it is going to be very fun making a sculpture rather than making a machine and Sayo agreed this idea. We have three weeks until the class ends This is our plan. 1st week to collect materials 2nd week to start making the foundation of No-Face(Kaonashi) 3rd week to finish the final project to prepare for a video and reflection of the project We divided three parts at the first week. I’m going to get a lot of squid ink. In order to get many squid ink efficiently, I need to make a machine, so I’m going to make squid factory at the first week. Nonoko is going to get a lot of gray and black dye that we can change the color of wool to gray and black Sayo is going to collect many sand blocks and the blocks should be smelted to get many glass blocks. This picture below is what we are going to make as the final project. ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓ |
