Multimedia Development Overview Essentially this module is split into two main components. The first being the Unity3D\u00a0 tasks, and to suit interests there are two paths Beginner unity path that based on developing in 2D Intermediate set of tasks in XR for Unity an interactive learning project In addition, there is the writing component, for this, we will be creating an academic textbook that looks at the topics we investigated last semester as well as emerging ideas. Each one of you will take on a subtopic to explore and then explain including key learning points, and assignment ideas as well as formative assessments. The goal is to publish this by the end of the semester as an open-source textbook. Announcements You will find additional information in the weekly\u00a0Class Announcements, so please take a moment to look at the announcements now. You will also find the announcements in Moodle and Slack for this module. Time You will need\u00a0about eight hours total to complete each week&#039;s tasks, which is the amount of time you can expect to spend on this class each week. I&#039;ve provided time estimates for each assignment \u2014 or I should say &quot;guesstimates&quot; (you will get a sense from week to week of just how long each time of assignment takes). The main thing is to be alert to the activities that will take longer than others so that you can plan accordingly! You can also use the Moodle Gradebook as an online checklist. Deadlines and Working Ahead As you can see, there are assignments s due on Friday and\/or over the weekend. But don&#039;t wait for the deadlines! BOOKS There are no required textbooks\u00a0to buy for this class, though I am highly recommending\u00a0Matt Smiths Unity Cookbook 2018. \u00a0 \u00a0\" data-rvtts-brand-url=\"https:\/\/responsivevoice.org\/?utm_source=wordpress-plugin&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=powered-by\" data-rvtts-brand-label=\"Powered by ResponsiveVoice\"><svg class=\"rvtts-icon\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\" viewBox=\"0 0 22 22\" fill=\"currentColor\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M11 0C4.92345 0 0 4.92345 0 11C0 13.2683 0.690345 15.3772 1.86621 17.1221L0.811724 21.0517L4.70345 20.0124C6.48621 21.2641 8.65586 22 11 22C17.0766 22 22 17.0766 22 11C22 4.92345 17.0766 0 11 0ZM3.99793 9.99862C3.99793 9.44483 4.44552 8.99724 4.99931 8.99724C5.5531 8.99724 6.00069 9.44483 6.00069 9.99862V12.0014C6.00069 12.5552 5.5531 13.0028 4.99931 13.0028C4.44552 13.0028 3.99793 12.5552 3.99793 12.0014V9.99862ZM8.99724 13.9966C8.99724 14.5503 8.54966 14.9979 7.99586 14.9979C7.44207 14.9979 6.99448 14.5503 6.99448 13.9966V7.99586C6.99448 7.44207 7.44207 6.99448 7.99586 6.99448C8.54966 6.99448 8.99724 7.44207 8.99724 7.99586V13.9966ZM12.0014 17.0007C12.0014 17.5545 11.5538 18.0021 11 18.0021C10.4462 18.0021 9.99862 17.5545 9.99862 17.0007V4.99931C9.99862 4.44552 10.4462 3.99793 11 3.99793C11.5538 3.99793 12.0014 4.44552 12.0014 4.99931V17.0007ZM14.9979 13.9966C14.9979 14.5503 14.5503 14.9979 13.9966 14.9979C13.4428 14.9979 12.9952 14.5503 12.9952 13.9966V7.99586C12.9952 7.44207 13.4428 6.99448 13.9966 6.99448C14.5503 6.99448 14.9979 7.44207 14.9979 7.99586V13.9966ZM18.0021 12.0014C18.0021 12.5552 17.5545 13.0028 17.0007 13.0028C16.4469 13.0028 15.9993 12.5552 15.9993 12.0014V9.99862C15.9993 9.44483 16.4469 8.99724 17.0007 8.99724C17.5545 8.99724 18.0021 9.44483 18.0021 9.99862V12.0014Z\"\/><\/svg><span class=\"responsivevoice-button__label\">Listen to this<\/span><\/button><\/p>\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/admissions.carleton.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMD_600x400.jpg\" alt=\"Image result for multimedia development\" \/><\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:image -->\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><\/figure>\r\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?sa=i&amp;source=images&amp;cd=&amp;ved=2ahUKEwj--5zgm4PmAhXHTcAKHdhIDdYQjRx6BAgBEAQ&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fadmissions.carleton.ca%2Fprograms%2Finteractive-multimedia-and-design-imd%2F&amp;psig=AOvVaw2Hvb8W-HPGkq8WPFdL6Pvu&amp;ust=1574697572093700\">Multimedia Development<\/a><\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<h3><strong>Overview<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>Essentially this module is split into two main components.
