Shaw STEM Lab 2013

 Cities are constantly under construction!  It seems no matter where you go there is always construction cones.  With all of this construction these new new places need power!  Power for lights, air conditioning, heating, etc.

 New types of energies are constantly being thought of and improved upon!  We will take a look at a few of the more popular ones.  Wind Power  Solar Power  Hydro Power  Hydrogen Power

 Solar Power  Solar power uses Solar Panels to capture the power of the sun.  Wind Power  As the blades of a wind mill turn, this generates energy.  Hydro Power  Hydro Power utilizes rushing water to generate energy.  Hydrogen Power  Hydrogen is combined with oxygen to create water, this reaction generates energy.

 Research one of the four types of energy.  Wind, Solar, Hydrogen or Hydro  Write at least five (5) sentences about the type of power you have chosen.  In addition to these five (5) sentences, research to see if NV Energy (our local power company) uses any of these types of energy. If so, where in Nevada are they?

 Click Start > Programs > Maxis SimCity 4 Deluxe SimCity 4 Deluxe

 As much fun as it would be to destroy your city using aliens, volcanoes and lightning.  Do not do it! This is not what you are being asked to do.  Not only will it ruin your city, it’ll ruin your grade!

Before you launch SimCity, we are going to review what you will be seeing and give you a few hints that will make your learning experience more rewarding. You will be prompted to launch the SimCity software at the end of this overview section. When you launch SimCity this is what you are going to see..

This will be your first Tutorial Overview Getting Started Tutorial The better you understand the game, the more you will like it and enjoy playing it

The information displayed in these boxes is very important. Be sure to read this information as you progress through the tutorials. Overview Getting Started Tutorial

 Three modes of operation (God, Mayor, My Sim)  Terraforming tools allow you to landscape  Zoning for residential, industrial, and commercial  Necessity of utilities like power, water, and roads  More education increases income and attracts new high-tech industries to your city  Start small and let things grow naturally Watch for these concepts as you progress through the Getting Started Tutorial Overview Concepts to Learn…

How do I put this fire out? When you get to this screen you have completed the basic getting started tutorial. Now you are ready to launch the Getting Started Tutorial. The next slide tells you how to launch SimCity.

Insert the SimCity disk #2 into your CD drive and then launch SimCity from the Start Menu (Start>Programs>Maxis>SimCity 4 Deluxe>SimCity 4 Deluxe). When the software first opens up you will be in the Timbuktu region where you will see a red arrow pointing to the “Getting Started Tutorial” Hover your cursor over the Getting Started Tutorial until it is highlighted with a yellow rectangle, then click the mouse.

Now that you have finished the tutorial, it’s time to run this city on your own. Exit the tutorial and start playing this city for practice. See how long you can go before going broke. Listen to your advisors! Do It! Getting Started On Your Own You are in for some real challenges

It’s all going up in smoke You better get these fires put out real quick! Do It! Getting Started On Your Own

You need to govern and spend wisely or you will have a riot on your hands… Your Sims are complaining… Do It! Getting Started On Your Own

When you exit SimCity and save… it saves your city in a SimCity 4 folder in My Documents on the C: System drive. Anything saved on C: gets erased by Deep Freeze when the computer reboots… So you need to copy your city from My Documents to your folder, then copy it back to the My Documents location the following day. Default …hmmm

Before launching SimCity… You need to copy your city from your network folder back to the… … My Documents SimCity 4 folder in the region it came from before you launch SimCity. … to the SimCity region it came from in My Documents Before starting SimCity… Copy your saved city from your network folder… 1 2

 Once you’ve finished the tutorial, create a NEW city utilizing only the green types of energy you researched.  SimCity 4 does not include Hydro Power  You may use Wind, Solar, and/or Hydrogen Power.  Create a second city utilizing one of the non green types of energy.  Describe in at least two (2) paragraphs how your two cities have performed. Cite specific reasons why you believe your cities were successful or unsuccessful.
