What a terrible day! Darryl had intended to record the words for us, but the space crashes all day. I have packed the sandbox to Andi, however, she can not load it in her PC either. We have no way to solve the problem.

Reflection
When we apply new technology in education, it is common to meet several problems on technology.

The words corridor has almost been done. Every word has its explanation, example sentence and corresponding picture. The next step we should do is recording the pronunciation of those words by Darryl and other professors.

When learners go across this street, they can learn the unique words in NZ by themselves.

When I enter the space today, the website added by Andi make sounds automatically even if I do not go into the room which it is in. That's a problem we should solve in case the sound bother the learners. 
In addition, more unique words in NZ and explanation of them have been placed in the space and they will be accompanied with corresponding pictures later.

Awesome! Our clothes shop is almost completed. People can try some of the goods when they click on them. Besides, learners are able to know about some commonly used conversation during the process of consuming. And we intend to add more information signs and exercises later.

Java script of choice questions has been done. I find a friend of mine to make the script. His major is IT and good at programming. According to our requirement, the answer will turn green if the uses choose the right one. The program could be used to test words' familiarity of the learners.

Reflection
Some programs in virtual learning space need specific skills like programming language. It is really a challenge for the educators and designers since they may lack of such skills or the building of space should involve more specialized persons with other skills.

The script sample shows below:

These days,  the clothes shop is being built consistently. Some shirts and jeans are made in Blender; some are downloaded from Internet; some are grabbed from other places.

Reflection
During the process of building clothes, I feel the limitation of technology. In the future, educators and designers in the virtual learning space may need more professional skills in building space.
