11-13-06 Song Meeting with Bob

Issues from the meeting:
Songs need to be stand alones. Have the songs accessible and make sense without the games. Create a menu just for the songs.

More info buttons for the songs - For each song Barb thought there could be a “for more info” buttons, which will allow the player to get more information about the subject related to the song. The information could be just text that Randy sends.

-------------------------------------------
For Next Meeting Monday 11-20:
Bob will bring revised songs:
• Bacteria is the Cause of the Food Borne Illness
• Washing Remove Bacteria
• Agar Plates can be used
We will provide to Bob:
• Storyboard on Handwashing Experiment so Bob has a better understanding of the experiment
• Opening – have more details and information for the opening. Songs for this section. The song for the opening can wait until later.

Next step:
Review and approve the revised songs.
-------------------------------------------
Songs Bob brought into the meeting: Review and changes needed:

Opening: can wait until later
• Bob needs to know how long is the narration for the opening
• Does there need to be music before and after narration

Bacteria is the Cause of the Food Borne Illness:
• Will be sung by: Scientist/Hermit, Carl, and rats.
• Don’t send to Randy until Bob makes changesto the song.
• Changes needed:
- Need to add more about food borne illness and how bad bacteria is related to food borne illness.
- Bad bacterias are on your hands and on your food – Explain more ways on how you could get bad bacterias. In Randy’s text there is a line about how you could get bad bacteria on your hands “If you touch raw meat, or if your hands are dirty from taking out the trash or playing in the grass, dangerous bacteria can get on your hands”.

Washing Remove Bacteria:
• Remove the lyrics about “bacteria jumps onto you”

Agar Plates can be used to culture bacteria
• Will be sung by the squeaky clean proper rats with Agar plates as backup
• Agar plate animation can get started
• Need to add if there are any bacteria there, there will be growth in the agar dish. The amount of growth in the agar dish corresponds with how much was initially added to the plate.

Doing an Experiment One Time isn’t Enough:
• Sung by the first mate
• Emphasize the number of subjects & individual in the experiment
• This isn’t about you proving what you planned but is about proving or disproving the hypotheses
• Bring back the phrase “one is not enough”
• Send to Bob Narration & details of the experiment – give to Bob next Monday Storyboard out the experiment –
• Bob will name the pirates to in the experiment so the names won’t hinder creating the lyrics.
• Make sure to put filthy Pete in the clean group.

Hypothesis and Observation:
• After exiting the STMT
• Content, observation, hypothesis, and characteristics of a good research question, all in one song.
---------------------------------------
Bob’s 1st pirate song: we need to meet and discuss to talk about where to put the song.
Initially thought when player first arrives on the island sung by the Tiki welcome but the songs doesn’t feel like a Tiki would sing and might have too many songs right at the beginning. The welcome to the island Tikis could just talk- short blurb welcome to the island…
