I have goofed - and I do not know exactly how. I received unprecedented permission from the Walt Disney Company to advocate Disney Infinity in a public IBM THINK STEM event, and as it turns out, the largest public IBM AoT THINK livestream ever held - over 20,000 online registrants. We have run pilots at the elementary, middle school, & high school levels, funded by IBM & P-Tech, advocating the educational value of Disney Infinity, with continued programs & expanded usage in the new year. But there is no word from a single Disney Cast Member on this presentation - not even a mouse.
Ironically, I have only recently realized that the best usage of our freely-downloadable Activity Kit from IBM's On Demand Community is for families at home. Toy Box building interest may very well start at a local library program, a high school game design club, or even a college-sponsored summer tech camp
- but it's the concept of building at home, with all kinds of time for creativity & problem-solving, on any number of its supported platforms, that would maximize Infinity's educational value. But I have been told from within IBM that I can't update the formatting for the written portion of our Activity Kit with Disney Infinity snapshots without permission from the Walt Disney Company. I can & will rewrite the text, but it won't be readily "consumable" by families without the game snapshots, because it won't be as fun.So I'm going to build a "clock". Don't know if it will make a difference. Hope it will. Either way, they're fun to build - Tick Tock
