Blog #4 Dalgarno's Taxonomy Explained in Elmo's Game

Within the Elmo's Workshop games, there are following input and output:

Input:

Selecting
Buttons
Icons
Dragging
Drawing (I'm not sure if this represents exactly what Coloring Book does in Elmo. In Coloring Book, there is no need for mouse clicking. Just by moving the mouse, you can make the black and white picture change its color.)

Output:

Displaying
Presenting media
Assessing answers
Generating feedback (with audio that tells you that you made a wrong choice, and encourages you to move if you've been idle for a while)
Saving and loading (When the game is clicked on)
