11-4: my record so far with the capitals. I am happy with the way I am playing, and with the stuff that I am learning. Not only am I having fun with my game, but believe it or not, I am actually able to apply a lot of Gee's principles, and what we are learning in class, to the game and its style of play.
In "fun terms", unsurprisingly, Ovechkin is my leading scorer and my go-to-guy whenever I need a score. I seem to have learned how my team works and the best ways to win the games. My biggest rival right now is probably the Penguins, for they only have 2 losses. Ill have to continue to play well in order to keep up with them and possibly defeat them later in the season.
Principle of the week: 11) Achievement Principle.
For learners of all levels of skill there are intrinsic rewards from the beginning, customized to each learner's level, effort, and growing mastery and signaling the learner's ongoing achievements
This principle definitely applies to NHL 10. There are so many different achievements for everyone at different levels at the game. Winning a game can be an achievement, or anything as small as scoring a goal or landing a huge hit. So many things can be classified as achievements which is one of the reasons that I think this game is so rewarding and fun to play. I suppose in this game, the ultimate achievement would be to win the Stanley Cup, but also, as the principle says, I guess it depends on the level of the gamer and what his/her personal goals truly are.
Keep on gaming...
