CuriouSer

Curriculum and Audio Designer  |  Educational VR Game  |  Fall 2017

CuriouSer was a project who's aim was to create an educational game which teaches introductory computer science concepts for beginners of computer science. CuriouSer worked through extensive research, and play-testing; pushing the boundaries of Virtual Reality educational experiences with the ultimate goal of teaching all ages through a fun and high quality educational game.

My planned contributions to the project:

  • Composed thematic Music that fits a space-alien-baking theme.

  • Scored Jazz pieces that thematically fit the theme and art style.

  • Incorporated the educational aspects within the audio design.

  • Recorded all sound effects using Foley, or Sound Synthesis.

  • Iterated realism of sound effects and effectiveness of feedback.

  • Spatialized all audio sources for maximized immersion in VR.

  • Cleaned raw audio files for the final polished deliverable.

  • We are teaching the computer science concept, functions, through a Virtual Reality cooking game using Google Daydream. It is a game in which the player is cooking for aliens in a space kitchen and using functions to make it more efficient. It will be teaching the students why functions are used as our research showed that it is difficult for them to understand that aspect. This game will be available as a teaching tool for teachers to use with their lesson plans. We are currenlty designing the experience and playtesting it to make it an engaging and immersive experience for middle and high school students.
