Imagine that an entertainment company has hired you to develop the concept for a mobile or computer-based game application (or "app") that provides students with some introductory information about the skills needed for the study of chemistry. The company might develop the app and release it to the general public if your concept is accepted. In order to present your concept to the company, you will need to develop a proposal that outlines the basic purpose of the game, how it works, the basic design, mock-ups, and what someone playing it would learn.
Use the Fundamentals of Science App Design Template to create your application proposal. Make sure to read through and complete each section of the template. You should start by brainstorming the concept, choosing one of the following topics:
