Our early plans

After great discussion with experts (both food safety and science education), our plans were to:

• provide an environment where game players engaged in three types of science processes (experiment, observation, and analysis of existing data) all tied to food safety.
  
• The experiment would focus on handwashing
  
• The observation would relate to bacterial growth
  
• The analysis would look at growth charts and determine the 'danger zone' for bacteria temperature wise
  
• Additionally, mini games would help convey concepts like risk assessment, probability, etc.
  

We decided to address the handwashing first, and created storyboards and a script for the handwashing activity, as well as a interactive storyboard proof of concept. We also developed a more detailed script on the handwashing, and preliminary storyboards on the observation activity.
