We are currently working on a game for a project called “Context”. The assignment is commissioned by the open air museum in Arnhem in Netherland. The assignment is to make an educational game with a digital component about the second world war in Netherland. The purpose is to make students experience what it was like to be a kid near the end of the war. As well as to see how they react when they need to work in a group.
Before our team can decide what for a game we will make, we need to do research about our target audience. We need to know which age group is the best choice if we will make a game about the second World War.
To do this I give myself up as a volunteer to do the target audience research.
the reason why I volunteered was because I taught that I could easily ask my previous school to be able to get an interview with a teacher and some students. I also wanted to learn more about their environment.
There are several questions that we asked ourselves before I got in contact with my previous school. Those questions became my purpose to do this research better as well to be able to get a better understanding how the students look at history as a whole.
In this research document I will talk about my several different methods and my analysis from those methods.
Last but not least I will write a conclusion about my findings, where and how it will impact my decisions in this project.
