Omit unneeded words, sounds, and graphics.
This resonates with me very much as I often try to copy absolutely everything into my notes from a PowerPoint while simultaneously trying to keep up with what is being said. It is often impossible to know what information will be necessary to memorize for a test and you end up with way more to study than is necessary.
Used well, these materials are integral to the session, and to be effective, they need the same careful level of planning and design as the rest of our lesson.
I agree with this statement that emphasizes that the materials teachers use are not just add ons, but rather key components of teaching.
Leveling ensures the appearance that weall start from the same place and then allows us to see how we stackup against other players, as we know they are going through the samethings we are. The status inequality Castronova believes we seek istranslated into a number that grows slowly over time and broadcastsour efforts and skill to everyone we encounter. However, the notionthat we all start from the same place requires deliberate inattentionto the resources players bring to a game in the first place.
Leveling pushes the illusion of explanatory depth behind the myth of experience. It doesn't accumulate infinitely. But more than leveling, I'd argue, it's also skill trees and abilities. They learned forever, and this linear progress is plain false. You can't magically carry more and more guns, and become more and more strong in real life, and there are no augmentations or powerups without side effects.
