Hi, I think all the work your doing is great. I myself have not had an easy life. I am now in my 3rd year at university studying design for interactive media. The aim for my personal project is to use technology to teach teens with adhd the consequences of their actions. I plan to creat an interactive dvd. The format will be a video clip and then a multiple choice which will determine which scene gets played next. This process would be iterated until the player reaches one of the endings. The player is constantly making choices which will take them on different paths. drinking, drugs, anger management, youth offenders, expelled from school. I am hoping this will help them to understand it is the choices that they make that leads them into trouble and that there are other options. In the future I would like to do this in a live project working with young offenders and involving them in the production of a game based on their own experiences.
If you or anyone reading this blog has any literature or knowledge that you think may help me with my research project please email me on kustard99@hotmail.com
Could you please send me further details of the work you do and your future plans. Thank you
