  • Worked on two games 
    • eye gaze
      • control using eye gaze, instead of using a mouse for example.
      • on problem with these games is that most are very simple, don't involve enough exploration and discovery
      • Game SPIFIND
        • would use eye gaze (can optionally use the mouse) to find spiders. 
          • the room is blacked out, but where the gaze is there is a spotlight
        • includes gifs as well as text to explain how to play the game
        • other than being fun, it will help the children build up their eye muscles 
        • received positive feedback from children playing the game
    • digital literacy for visually impaired children (1 - 2 years old)
