I just came across your blog and just wanted to say hi, so...hi, hello :) How are you? Hope you're taking care of yourself and hydrating properly!
If you don't mind me asking, is there any advice you can give me as someone who struggles with writer's block and wants to get into the yandere community by writing fics/ocs and stuff?
~ 🐇 (I didn't see that this bunny emoji was taken, but if it is, I'll change it ^^)
Got writer's block? The yanderedrabbles literary agency is here to help - whether you want us to or not.
ooh, writer's block is the worst. Over the years, I've assembled a kit to help me get through it. It includes advice I've picked up from fellow authors, from books on writing, and things I've generally figured out. Specifically catered to my particular brand of procrastination and keyboard related head banging.
Not every step will work for you, but I'd say they're all worth trying!
Step 1: Figure out what's causing the block. Tricky, I know. But there's definitely a reason behind it, and solving the issue means finding the root. Do you feel paralysed by perfection, not wanting to write because you don't want to fail? Is your idea bank running on empty? Do you feel like your work just isn't good enough? Are you tired or burnt out? For most, it's usually a combination of factors. Identify and address issue accordingly.
Step 2: Write badly. No, seriously. Give yourself permission to sit down and write the worst piece of literature to ever grace this good, green earth. Because you know what? You can always fix it later. And at least you'll have something to improve upon, rather than yet another blank document that stares at you like an accusation. This goes for my perfectionists especially. Your first draft is supposed to be awful! That's why it's the first! Just get those words down and fix them later. Will you have to delete huge swathes? Probably. But the stuff you're left with will be worth the effort, I promise you.
Step 3: Randomness as Genesis. This is my go to when the mental treasury cuts funding and my idea bank is on the verge of bankruptcy. There are soooo many ways to go about it.
The first method is to use a random word generator and build off that. It's tricky at first, but as you train yourself to think like a writer, you'll find ideas coming from even the most mundane things. Here are some examples:
"Hairdresser?" Ooh, a small town mystery where the local stylist notices something strange about her latest client. "Scissors?" A goodwill employee comes across a pair of vintage garden sheers that contain a strange power. "Heater?" It's winter and your shoddy old heater has finally given up. There's a blizzard blowing in and no one to turn to for help besides your mysterious and reclusive neighbour.
In the same vein, use a random title generator and base your story off that. [Or as it's more commonly known, the Val Lewton method].
The third option is a template. I usually create about three to five categories - character type, conflict, setting, genre - and list as many things I can think of. And then, I use a number generator to randomly choose one or two ideas from each category.
In practice, I end up with prompts like "captain of the guard, age gap, fantasy, revenge." It's up to me to come up with a story based off that. And in this case, I did! Those prompts were the basis of my upcoming Yandere Captain of the Guard x Princess Reader fic.
I got this idea from the James Scott Bell Start-A-Plot machine. I can drop both the JSB method and mine if you guys are interested.
Step 4: Freeflow. One of my fave methods. Sit down and write the longest sentence you can manage. Ramble. No punctuation. Let your character monologue as much as they want. It's a writing exercise that I'm particularly fond of to get into a flow state and warm up. Also! It's a great way to get into your character's head and really nail down that sense of voice.
Step 5: Multimedia inspiration. Pinterest boards. Playlists. Your favourite books. Your favourite movies. Fairytales. Take something you love and add a modifier onto it. In the case of yandere cyberpunk fairytales, I decided to take classic fairytales and reinterpret them through a cyberpunk and pulp noir style. But that's barely scratching the surface. Change the time period, change the character types, change the genre. There's no shortage of ideas when you know where to look.
Step 6: Sleep on it! Or better yet, walk it out. Y'know those tiktoks where someone is talking about smashing their daily step count because they were day dreaming? Yep, that's about to be you. We all daydream, and we do it all the time. On commutes, during boring meetings, waiting in line. The key is to note down all those day dreams and turn them into stories. No matter how over the top or self indulgent, they're worth keeping.
Writers obsess over their work. I cannot tell you how many times I read over a fic before I even think of publishing it. That's great for editing, but when you've been over the same piece of media half a dozen times, it starts to loose its magic. When your work feels like the ugliest piece of text to ever exist, more often than not it's the fatigue talking. I suggest letting your work sit for a little while before reviewing/editing. Coming in with fresh eyes changes so much. You'll be surprised by how different your work feels once you've let it breathe a little.
Step 7: Do something light to push through it. This right here is the real secret sauce. I think a lot of writer's block comes from the fear of failure. What if I suck? What if I'm the worst author since the guy who wrote about space zebras with lazer guns?
Especially when you're working on something that you've already put a ton of effort into. There's this innate desire to succeed that becomes paralysing.
The solution to that is to step away and work on something fun and easy and low stakes. Something you're not afraid of messing up. In my case, the yandere movie week reviews are a fun, lighthearted shift away from my regular posting styles. In addition, short drabbles like this and this almost always break me out of my slumps.
Fun and low stakes. It's gets those writing muscles flexing again and before you know it, you're ready to dive back into your magnum opus.
There you have it! The methods I use to break through the writer's block. And just remember, if its your calling, then it will keep calling. Don't beat yourself up for taking time off from writing. That time away might be what finally inspires you and sets all the right pieces clicking into place.
Writer's block is a reality for just about everyone who's ever put pen to paper or gorgeous, manicured fingers to keyboard. You aren't alone in wanting to punch the screen until sentences start forming. But we all get through it eventually. Take care of yourself, read what you love and hammer at those keys until they give in. That's all there is to it. Love ya, and happy writing 😘

Today is my birthday, and for those of you who have been keeping up-to-date with my life, it's also been two years (plus six days) since I got out from the hospital. Three birthdays and two years of life I wouldn't have had without that emergency surgery.🎈
First a big 🤗 to all my friends and followers. I haven't been as present "on stage" as I wish I could be in the fandom or as quick to respond to messages as I'd like. I very much appreciate your patience and understanding. I will be messaging more, and I will be posting a lot ... in time.
Life Update: I restarted physical therapy earlier this year (since my Grand Canyon surgical wound finally healed), and I can finally get on the floor (and stay on it) without any issue! Now I'm working on getting off the floor (i.e. standing) without help. It's going really well, and it's like recovering another piece of myself that I lost. Lots of core work, too, and more range of motion work for my arms.
I hate all these exercises. 😂😂😂 But I do them anyway. Eye on the prize: full functionality and getting fit enough for surgery number 2 of 3.
My dad is doing great since his heart attack the day after Thanksgiving last year. He "graduated" from Cardiac Rehab and is already back to his outside runs.
T7S Fanworks Update: I'm coming up with all the book and chapter titles in Those Who Play with Demons (a gargantuan task) in preparation for writing draft two. This is one hell of a story (pun intended). Teases and fan interaction posts when I'm close to posting.
Behind the scenes, I've got that final episode of Those '70s Comics that is almost finished. Three T7S fanfics (including the aforementioned TWPWD, which is partly a multimedia project), more Jukebox Game ficlets, and just a boatload of content.
But my health takes precedence. Very frustrating not to be able to engage in the active fandom with the frequency and consistency I did in the before times, but please know I'll more than make up for that. 👀😳🤭
Many ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ to all of you!

our lives, never ours by glitteringmoonlight (T, 7k, WangXian, Hunger Games Setting, Angst, Minor Violence, Blood, hunger games typical references to violence, implied happy ending, but it's a bit ambiguous, this exists mostly for angst purposes tbh)
~*~
8. hey admins! itmf longer post canon fics like 'wind rose in the clouds'? thank you ❤️
For 8, what about that fic did the requester like? What specifically are they looking for other than length and post-canon setting? Or are those the only criteria?
~*~
9. IITMF ask; Give me your favorite ‘Wei Wuxian in Wei Wuxian’s body or keeps his body or doesn’t actually die’ fics. I’m in the mood to read more of our favorite boy as his og self. (He doesn’t have to start in his body, but I want my boy looking like himself by the end)

~*~
10. fics in which wwx comes back (from the dead/from the burial mounds/from hiding, whatever really) specifically for lwj!! (can be modern too if there r any)
🧡 Ghosts Shouldn’t by ShanaStoryteller (Not Rated, 15k, WangXian, Grief/Mourning, Canon Divergence, Angst with a Happy Ending)
~*~
11. itmf fics where wangxian time travel to modern times - not reincarnation, but straight time travel. Preferably (mostly) canon typical before the time travel, but the point in canon when it happens does not matter
🧡 The Shade of Old Trees by Kryal (T, 266k, WIP, WangXian, Ridiculously Long Notes, History, Canon Divergence, Modern AU, Slow Burn, Worldbuilding, Slow Life, Action/Adventure, Magic Returns, BAMF WWX) could technically count if you don't mind it being just wwx who ends up in the future?
take me back to a time by DizziDreams (T, 143k, WangXian, Modern AU, College/University, Modern with Magic, Time Travel, Sharing a Bed, Angst with a Happy Ending, Student!WWX, Time-Traveling Wizard!LWJ, Slow Burn, Character Death, Angst, reference to abuse, Canonical Character Death, Canonical Abuse, Canon!LWJ, Canon-Typical Violence, Mutual Pining, Chronic Illness, Not A Fix-It, Case Fic, implied 3zun, Transmigration, America, [Podfic of] take me back to a time by dreamhazer) not sure if this can work
~*~
12. ITMF for fics where wwx is abused sexually by the jiangs (JFM/JC) or an adult male figure he trusts. (Like the "between a rock and a hard place" series by Mydla but the truth is revealed and it's properly dealt with/ he gets his justice) @linossock
🔒 a choice to call our own by renhui (E, 93k, wangxian, JFM/WWX, WIP, Rape/Non-Con, Underage, Angst with a Happy Ending, Childhood Sexual Abuse, Sexual Assault, Forced Bonding, Homelessness, Dubious Consent, Self-Esteem Issues, Soulmates, Not Actually Unrequited Love, Pining while fucking, Misunderstandings, Miscommunication, Breaking Up & Making Up, Hurt/Comfort, Recovery, Good Uncle LQR, No Sunshot Campaign, Asexuality Spectrum) mostly fits the bill, although the requester should be warned that it's a WIP that ends before JFM gets his comeuppance, although it ends with the beginnings of a setup for that, so it's clearly on the way.
clean from the war (your heart fits like a key) by sysrae (E, 28k, WangXian, Modern AU Reunions, past xy/wwx, xy is fucked up but not evil because it's a modern AU and I said so, Hurt/Comfort, Panic Attacks, past wwx/jfm, Past Rape/Non-con, Past Abuse, Rape Recovery, transphobic violence, Victim Blaming, Past wei Wuxian/others, allusions to past self-harm) I think this might fit- note the tags
~*~
13. thank you for this blog!! for the next itmf - any stories that take off like RoseThorne's wonderful ' a grain of millet drifting' - untamed canon-ish where WY is left on his own after the temple scene. angst appreciated - thank you !

~*~

Might want to read New Perspective (link in #6) first for context
~*~
16. Hello! For the next itmf, fics that place heavy emphasis on how what wwx practices is guidao (ghost cultivation) as opposed to modao (demonic cultivation)? Ideally canon dynamics, but no smut is also definitely ok! @lovelyiknow

Sega Saturn - EMIT Volume 1: Lost in Time
Title: EMIT Volume 1: Lost in Time / EMIT [エミット] Vol.1 ~時の迷子~
Developer/Publisher: KOEI
Release date: 25 March 1995
Catalogue No.: T-7602G
Genre: English Education Software
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Originally available for the Super Famicom along with a Voicer-kun audio CD (as well as FM Towns and PC-9821 platforms), EMIT is what's best described as an English tutorial software. Now before you start thinking “boring” and stop reading, remember that the Japanese education games are actually more interesting than the so-called Multimedia education crap we have in the West on platforms like the Sega CD, 3DO, and Philips CDI.
EMIT is a full voice and text-driven digital novel with the added bonus of being fully bilingual. By this I mean you can choose from any combination of Japanese / English text and audio. I play with English text and Japanese audio because those American accents really do grate in your ears (No offense to our American readers. I'm sure you find British accents awful. I live in Malaysia which means we use British accents when speaking English I think). Anyway, for an educational game, the story is quite bizarre, to say the least. You may have figured out already that EMIT is, in fact, TIME spelled backward. The game starts with a young girl meeting an old man who asks about a watchmaker. It turns out that this man gets younger instead of older and is from another world. I won't tell you any more apart from the story getting even more warped in volumes 2 and 3.
The educational part of the software is actually very good. You have exercises, English vocabulary tests, and a Japanese-to-English dictionary. The game can also be used to teach English speakers Japanese. Of course, you can't use most of the exercises but at least you can use the dictionary and play the game in English. This game is also available on the 3DO, and I think you can even get it on the PS1 as part of the EMIT Value Set compilation bundle.

Learn Danish with Curiotory
Introduction
Danish is a fascinating language, spoken by over 6 million people primarily in Denmark, as well as in parts of Greenland, the Faroe Islands, and northern Germany. It's a language rich in history, culture, and tradition, with ties to the ancient Norse languages. Learning Danish opens the door to understanding Danish culture, literature, and a way of life that emphasizes simplicity, community, and a deep connection with nature.
At Curiotory, we believe that learning a new language should be an engaging and enjoyable experience. Whether you’re planning to travel to Denmark, interested in its rich cultural heritage, or simply looking to challenge yourself with a new language, our Danish language course offers an immersive and comprehensive learning experience.
Why Learn Danish?
1. Cultural Immersion
Denmark is known for its vibrant cultural scene, from world-class museums and historic landmarks to the unique Danish concept of "hygge" (a feeling of coziness and contentment). By learning Danish, you can fully immerse yourself in the culture, understanding the nuances and expressions that define the Danish way of life.
2. Travel and Exploration
Whether you’re visiting Copenhagen’s charming streets or exploring the scenic landscapes of Jutland, knowing the local language enhances your travel experience. It allows you to connect with locals, understand signs and menus, and navigate your way through the country with ease.
3. Career Opportunities
Denmark is a hub for various industries, including technology, design, and renewable energy. Knowing Danish can give you a competitive edge in the job market, opening doors to career opportunities in Denmark and other Danish-speaking regions.
4. Cognitive Benefits
Learning a new language has numerous cognitive benefits, including improved memory, problem-solving skills, and multitasking abilities. Danish, with its unique pronunciation and grammar, provides a stimulating challenge for language learners.
What Makes Curiotory's Danish Course Stand Out?
At Curiotory, we have designed our Danish course to cater to learners of all levels, from beginners to advanced speakers. Here’s what sets our course apart:
1. Interactive Lessons
Our lessons are designed to be interactive and engaging, using multimedia resources such as videos, audio clips, and interactive exercises. This approach ensures that you not only learn the language but also practice it in real-life scenarios.
2. Experienced Instructors
Our team of experienced instructors are native Danish speakers who bring their expertise and passion for the language to each lesson. They provide personalized feedback, helping you to improve your pronunciation, grammar, and conversational skills.
3. Flexible Learning Options
We understand that everyone has a different learning pace and schedule. That’s why we offer flexible learning options, including one-on-one sessions, group classes, and self-paced learning modules. You can choose the option that best suits your needs and lifestyle.
4. Cultural Insights
Our course goes beyond language learning to include insights into Danish culture, history, and traditions. You’ll learn about Danish customs, festivals, and even popular Danish foods, giving you a holistic understanding of the country.
5. Community Support
Learning a language is a journey, and having a supportive community makes it easier and more enjoyable. Our learners have access to online forums, discussion groups, and social events where they can practice Danish with fellow learners and native speakers.

"In Barney’s elaborate thematically interlinked multimedia series Drawing Restraint and The Cremaster Cycle, for instance objects function as protagonists in what amounts to an epic of things (this is why there is seldom any dialogue in his films since objects don’t possess the capacity for speech). Barney’s personal “mandala” or diagram of forces is encoded in his own invented logo, the “field emblem,” a horizontal oval shape upon which an orthogonal bar of repression is superimposed. According to the artist’s system, this simple figure encompasses three dynamics whose shifting equilibrium he defines as follows: (1) situation corresponds to raw drive without direction; (2) condition is a “visceral funnel” corresponding biologically to the breakdown of food in digestion, or the breaking down and building up of muscle tissue through exercise and sport; and (3) production that the artist associates with anal output, in keeping with his penchant for biological metaphors, which not coincidentally break down a “person” into a field of unconscious physical and chemical interactions. In many of Barney’s works, however, production is blocked in order to retain the system’s energy in a perpetual closed circuit. The arcane niceties of this privatized biological network need not distract us from Barney’s fundamental accomplishment: inventing an elaborate tournament of events for objects to undergo. In the case of his films and performances, things are wrapped, molded, hardened, personified, ingested, collapsed, and so on and on, as though put through every permutation and variation of the triple forces of the field emblem. In other words, the changes in format that objects undergo dictate Barney’s narrative. At a moment when biology and biochemistry have become reigning social metaphors, he rechoreographs the biological mechanics of the body in order to produce an operatic demonstration of the great unconscious hubbub that keeps us alive. Barney diagrams life as a drama of things. The field emblem is not the meaning of his work, but its format.
The shift I’ve indicated from an object-based aesthetics in both architecture and art to a network aesthetics premised on the emergence of form from populations of images, calls for a corresponding revision of critical methodology. Objects characterized by discernible limits and relative stability lend themselves to singular meanings—almost as though well-defined forms are destined to contain a significance like vessels. Emergence, however, unfolds in time: it must be narrated. Despite the changes wrought by contemporary art to art history’s object of study, the preponderance of art-historical interpretation continues to depart from the presumption that objects are its fundamental units of analysis—even if it is recognized that since Conceptual Art, artworks have become unconventional and provisional sorts of things.

Mastering Virtual Instructor-Led Training: Best Practices for Success
In today's fast-paced and interconnected world, the landscape of education and training has undergone a significant transformation. With the rise of technology and remote work, traditional methods of training have expanded into the virtual realm. Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT) has emerged as a powerful tool to provide effective learning experiences while accommodating the demands of modern learners. In this article, we will delve into the best practices for mastering Virtual Instructor-Led Training and ensuring its success.
Tumblr media
1. Embrace Interactive Learning Environments
One of the keys to successful VILT is creating interactive learning environments that mirror the engagement of in-person sessions. Utilize a variety of multimedia elements such as videos, animations, polls, and quizzes to maintain participant interest. Encourage real-time discussions and collaborative activities to foster a sense of community among participants, even when they are geographically dispersed.
2. Design Engaging Content
The content presented during virtual Instructor led training sessions plays a pivotal role in capturing participants' attention. Design content that is visually appealing and easy to digest. Break down complex concepts into bite-sized pieces, using clear and concise language. Incorporate real-life examples and case studies to make the content relatable and relevant to participants' experiences.
3. Prioritize Participant Engagement
Maintaining participant engagement in a virtual setting can be challenging. Encourage active participation through interactive elements like polls, chat discussions, and breakout rooms for group activities. Pose thought-provoking questions that stimulate critical thinking and encourage participants to share their insights. Address questions and concerns promptly to keep the session interactive and dynamic.
4. Incorporate Varied Teaching Techniques
VILT allows for a diverse range of teaching techniques that cater to different learning styles. Combine presentations, discussions, group activities, and hands-on exercises to accommodate visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. Incorporate both synchronous and asynchronous learning elements to provide flexibility and optimize the learning experience.
5. Leverage Virtual Tools
Modern technology offers a plethora of virtual tools that can enhance the VILT experience. Video conferencing platforms, collaborative whiteboards, and screen-sharing functionalities enable trainers to explain concepts visually and encourage real-time participation. Additionally, using a learning management system (LMS) can provide a centralized hub for resources, assignments, and assessments.
6. Provide Pre-Session and Post-Session Materials
Enhance the effectiveness of VILT by providing participants with pre-session and post-session materials. Pre-session materials can include readings, videos, or quizzes that prepare participants for the upcoming session. Post-session materials, such as summaries, additional resources, and assignments, reinforce learning and allow participants to delve deeper into the subject matter.
7. Ensure Technical Readiness
Technical glitches can disrupt the flow of VILT sessions and diminish the learning experience. Prior to the training, communicate technical requirements to participants and conduct practice sessions to ensure they are comfortable with the technology. Have technical support available during the training to quickly address any issues that may arise.
8. Encourage Continuous Feedback
Feedback is invaluable for improving the quality of VILT sessions. Encourage participants to provide feedback after each session, whether through surveys or open discussions. Use their input to refine your teaching methods, content delivery, and overall training approach.
Conclusion
Virtual Instructor-Led Training presents a remarkable opportunity to deliver impactful learning experiences regardless of geographical constraints. Infopro Learning by embracing interactive environments, designing engaging content, prioritizing engagement, incorporating diverse teaching techniques, leveraging virtual tools, providing supplementary materials, ensuring technical readiness, and seeking continuous feedback, trainers can master the art of VILT and create successful learning journeys. As the world continues to evolve, mastering VILT will remain a crucial skill for educators and trainers to effectively impart knowledge and skills to learners across the globe.

The Benefits of RCFE Online CEU Courses for Busy Administrators
Tumblr media
Running a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly is a full-time commitment—and then some. Between regulatory paperwork, staff scheduling, and the ever-present responsibility of resident care, administrators rarely have the luxury of sitting in a classroom for continuing education. Yet California insists on 40 CEU hours every two years, and rightly so; updated knowledge directly translates to safer, happier communities. Fortunately, RCFE online CEU courses are changing the game, making compliance achievable without putting daily operations on hold.
1. Learn on Your Schedule Unlike fixed-date seminars, digital courses let administrators log in early in the morning, during a quiet afternoon lull, or after bedtime routines. Modules pause automatically, so if an urgent call bell rings or a licensing inspector arrives, progress isn’t lost. That kind of flexibility is priceless when every day brings unpredictable demands.
2. Cut Travel Time and Costs Gas, parking, and hotel stays add up quickly. Online programs remove geography from the equation, allowing rural and urban administrators alike to complete high-quality training from any internet-connected device. Facilities save money, and administrators reclaim hours that would otherwise be spent on the freeway.
3. Immediate Access to Updates Regulations shift frequently—think enhanced infection-control protocols or new dementia-care guidelines. Leading providers such as Assisted Living Education revise digital content in real time, meaning learners receive the latest standards without waiting for the next scheduled conference. Staying current becomes a seamless process rather than a scramble.
4. Interactive, Multimedia Learning Engagement spikes when information is delivered through short videos, quizzes, and scenario-based exercises instead of marathon lectures. Multimedia formats cater to different learning styles, which boosts retention and helps administrators apply concepts on the job the very same day.
5. Built-In Record Keeping Online dashboards store certificates automatically, generating downloadable transcripts at renewal time. No more hunting for paperwork in desk drawers or email archives. A single click produces a neat packet ready for the Department of Social Services.
6. Broader Course Selection Traditional workshops might cover two or three topics per session. Digital libraries host dozens—fall-prevention strategies, cultural sensitivity, medication management, even leadership coaching. Administrators can tailor their CEU portfolio to current facility needs rather than settling for the “one-size-fits-all” agenda of an in-person event.
7. Learning That Scales When one administrator discovers a valuable lesson, the entire team benefits. Many online platforms allow sharing printable resources with coworkers, amplifying the impact of each CEU hour and reinforcing a culture of continuous improvement throughout the facility.
8. Confidence for Licensing Visits Inspectors appreciate administrators who can cite the latest code sections or best-practice guidelines. Completing a comprehensive set of online courses demonstrates proactive diligence, often smoothing the path during annual surveys and reducing the likelihood of costly citations.
Administrators looking to streamline their professional development—and keep evenings free for family or well-deserved downtime—should explore RCFE online CEU options. Combining convenience with up-to-the-minute content, these digital courses transform continuing education from a logistical headache into an empowering resource. And when time is the most precious commodity, that transformation can make all the difference for both leaders and the residents who rely on them.

Sega Saturn - EMIT Volume 3: Bid Myself Farewell
Title: EMIT Volume 3: Bid Myself Farewell / EMIT [エミット] Vol.3 ~私にさよならを~
Developer/Publisher: KOEI
Release date: 1 April 1995
Catalogue No.: T-7604G
Genre: English Education Software
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Same story as my reviews of EMIT Volumes 1 & 2, but in case you may have missed it, I'll paste it again.
Originally available for the Super Famicom along with a Voicer-kun audio CD (as well as FM Towns and PC-9821 platforms), EMIT is what's best described as an English tutorial software. Now before you start thinking “boring” and stop reading, remember that the Japanese education games are actually more interesting than the so-called Multimedia education crap we have in the West on platforms like the Sega CD, 3DO, and Philips CDI.
EMIT is a full voice and text-driven digital novel with the added bonus of being fully bilingual. By this I mean you can choose from any combination of Japanese / English text and audio. I play with English text and Japanese audio because those American accents really do grate in your ears (No offense to our American readers. I'm sure you find British accents awful. I live in Malaysia which means we use British accents when speaking English I think). Anyway, for an educational game, the story is quite bizarre, to say the least. You may have figured out already that EMIT is, in fact, TIME spelled backward. The game starts with a young girl meeting an old man who asks about a watchmaker. It turns out that this man gets younger instead of older and is from another world. I won't tell you any more apart from the story getting even more warped in volumes 2 and 3.
The educational part of the software is actually very good. You have exercises, English vocabulary tests, and a Japanese-to-English dictionary. The game can also be used to teach English speakers Japanese. Of course, you can't use most of the exercises but at least you can use the dictionary and play the game in English. This game is also available on the 3DO, and I think you can even get it on the PS1 as part of the EMIT Value Set compilation bundle.

Revolutionizing Microlearning: The Power of the DDE Framework in Game Design
Tumblr media
Unleashing the Power of the DDE Framework for Game Design in Microlearning
In the fast-paced world of corporate training and modern education, attention spans are shrinking while the demand for effective learning outcomes is rising. This has paved the way for microlearning—short, focused learning modules designed for just-in-time training. Yet, even microlearning must engage learners deeply to ensure knowledge retention and application. That's where game design steps in, and more specifically, the DDE Framework—Demonstrate, Do, Evaluate—becomes a game changer.
Developed as part of MaxLearn’s commitment to enhancing learner experience through technology and gamification, the DDE Framework offers an intuitive and impactful way to structure game-based microlearning. This article explores the DDE Framework in detail, illustrating how it drives engagement, motivation, and measurable learning outcomes.
What Is the DDE Framework?
The DDE Framework is a three-phase instructional design model created to integrate game mechanics into microlearning in a logical and learner-centric manner. It breaks down into three stages:
Demonstrate – Provide concise, contextual knowledge or skills using engaging multimedia.
Do – Allow learners to apply what they’ve learned through interactive game mechanics.
Evaluate – Offer instant feedback and analytics to reinforce learning and guide improvement.
Together, these phases create a complete learning loop that fosters both comprehension and retention.
Phase 1: Demonstrate – Set the Foundation
The first phase of the DDE Framework is all about providing clarity and direction. In this step, instructional designers use a combination of micro-content—videos, infographics, animations, or brief explanations—to demonstrate a concept or process. The objective is to deliver learning in bite-sized, highly digestible segments that can be consumed in under five minutes.
In the context of game-based microlearning, this stage sets the narrative. It introduces learners to a challenge or scenario—perhaps a simulation of a real-world business task or a compliance situation—and shows them the optimal path or process to solve it.
For example, in a sales training module, learners might watch a 90-second clip demonstrating how to handle a pricing objection. The key is clarity, conciseness, and relevance, ensuring learners are primed for action.
Phase 2: Do – Engage through Action
Once the concept is introduced, learners move to the Do phase, where engagement becomes the centerpiece. This is where game-based mechanics such as drag-and-drop exercises, scenario-based branching, role-playing simulations, or timed challenges are applied.
The Do phase transforms passive learning into active exploration. Learners are prompted to make decisions, solve problems, and navigate challenges that mimic real-life contexts. These activities are designed not only to reinforce the initial demonstration but to let learners fail safely and learn from their mistakes.
Game elements such as points, badges, leaderboards, and progress bars are integrated to keep motivation high. With gamified repetition, learners are more likely to retain information and develop skills that are immediately applicable.
Phase 3: Evaluate – Reinforce and Improve
Evaluation is more than just testing knowledge—it’s about providing feedback, promoting reflection, and guiding progression. In the Evaluate phase, learners receive instant feedback on their performance. This may include scores, correct answers, detailed explanations, or coaching tips.
Moreover, this stage is instrumental in delivering analytics to both learners and training administrators. It helps answer critical questions:
What concepts are learners struggling with?
Which actions lead to the best outcomes?
Where can training be refined?
The Evaluate phase closes the loop of the learning cycle and prepares learners for continuous improvement. Through intelligent use of adaptive feedback and analytics, learners become more self-aware and are guided towards mastery.
Why the DDE Framework Works
The strength of the DDE Framework lies in its simplicity and alignment with cognitive science. Each step corresponds with how people naturally learn:
Demonstration satisfies the need for guidance.
Doing engages muscle memory and problem-solving.
Evaluation supports reflection and long-term retention.
Incorporating these phases into game-based microlearning ensures learners remain engaged while progressing through increasingly complex material. The result? Faster onboarding, better compliance, more agile skills development, and measurable ROI from training programs.
Application Across Industries
The DDE Framework is industry-agnostic. Whether you're delivering:
Financial compliance training, where learners must understand and apply regulations,
Healthcare education, where procedures must be demonstrated and practiced,
Sales enablement, where performance under pressure is vital,
…the DDE model ensures that training is both engaging and effective.
For instance, in pharmaceutical sales, a microlearning game might:
Demonstrate how to position a new drug.
Let learners Do by practicing sales conversations in a simulated environment.
Evaluate their performance with personalized feedback and scorecards.
The Role of Technology in DDE
Platforms like MaxLearn are essential in operationalizing the DDE Framework. With AI-powered authoring tools, instructional designers can rapidly create and deploy content that aligns with the DDE model. Features like adaptive learning paths, embedded gamification elements, and real-time analytics allow seamless implementation of the DDE flow.
In particular, MaxLearn’s gamified LMS supports dynamic learner journeys where each module naturally transitions from Demonstrate to Do to Evaluate—creating a cohesive and immersive learning experience.
The Future of Game-Based Microlearning
As the workforce continues to evolve and learners demand more personalized and engaging experiences, the DDE Framework offers a proven path forward. It not only meets the demands of modern learning but anticipates them—merging technology, instructional design, and gamification into one powerful methodology.
By using the DDE Framework, organizations can create learning programs that do more than inform—they transform.
Final Thoughts
The DDE Framework for Game Design in Microlearning is more than just a methodology—it’s a strategic approach to developing high-impact, learner-centered training. In an era where attention is fleeting and engagement is critical, the DDE model empowers L&D teams to deliver training that sticks.
With MaxLearn’s advanced microlearning platform, implementing the DDE Framework becomes intuitive, scalable, and results-driven. If you're looking to enhance learner engagement, boost retention, and drive real-world outcomes, it's time to embrace the DDE way of learning.
