MyWorld is a digital literacy tutorial I worked on while receiving my Masters of Digital Media.

By simulating the typical online experience (e-mail, Facebook, Wikipedia, etc.), this tutorial intends to inform high school students about managing online privacy and reputation, and understanding digital copyright laws.

I was project manager and script editor on a student team that created the program for the Ottawa-based Media Awareness Network. I negotiated the scope and breadth of our deliverable with our client via weekly Skype conference calls, and created and maintained a schedule with milestones for our team to hit.

In addition, I helped create audio and graphic assets for the tutorial, and played the part of homeroom teacher Mr. Billings for the Video Chat component of our game.

MyWorld was created by Think Ray, consisting of Nick Lewis, Ian McDonald, Jeunessa Cheng, Khadija Ghazi, Matthew Schade
