C836: Create your own Virtual Scavenger Hunt for mobile phones in Splash! Spring 2010 (Apr. 17 - 18, 2010)
Modern web browsers on most smart-phones are location aware. This class will allow students to take advantage of this feature while designing their own real world, location aware scavenger hunt game. This is not really a computer science class, as it will not include traditional programming. The class will focus partly on game design, exploring ideas around location aware games, then will focus on putting those ideas into a scavenger hunt game template for location aware mobile browsers. The class will end with a chance for other people to play the games, and give feedback.
