PALO Player Actions with a Learning Objective

We tried to capture gaming behaviour by stating game content as learning objectives. These requires a verb and an object, where the verb refers to the intended cognitive process and the object refers to the knowledge level that must be acquired or constructed.

We used this verb/object structure to describe the PALOs in the psychotherapeutic game Personal Investigator (and others).

PALO Player Actions with a Learning Objective |

I've not eaten bread for 18 months or so due to my #naturopathPrescribedDiet . I bought some last week as I had a "delicate stomach" and dry bread is one of the things that you can eat during those times.

And wow, I was shocked at how 💩 that supermarket bread stuff is. Bread never used to taste this bad. It has really gone down hill in the past 5 years or so.

In 2018 I made and photographed this wonderful spread. I think bread tasted better in those days. Or is it because I have not eaten bread in that time and I'm not used to the taste.

Anything that will sit on the counter for several days without deteriorating can't be or taste good/be healthy imo.

What a November we've had. Twice the average rainfall - no wonder I feel like I am growing barnacles. And half of that has fallen in the past few days. It rained again overnight, quite heavily, so when that is added to the total, it will be an extraordinarily wet month.

It has also been cold - 3C colder than the long term average. It has been a couple of years I reckon since a month wasn't hotter than the long term average. It has definitely been layers-of-clothing type weather this year.

Still, some salads have entered the kitchen vocabulary, amongst the plentiful soups.

The weather is so changeable atm, I still have soups on my mind.

I have a "delicate stomach" today for some reason, so spicy things are off the table today. Still, I can dream, can't I?

Oh the joy of Spring. Daylight saving has kicked in and so the days are longer, brighter and (sometimes) warmer. Still in transition, though, the season can have its colder days and Spring rains. We need to accommodate the weather in our food.

This year has been particularly seesawing between Wintery weather and nice warm Spring days. Soup is often on the menu.
