What's Going On? March 21st through 24th

Fundamentals of Programming

During this short week leading up to spring break, students will be working on the "Pong" app and the "Get the Gold" app.  Students are continuing to learn about animation through tutorials.  Once these apps have been completed and our portfolio pages have been updated with the app information and the reflection questions, students can begin working on their second creative project.  Our work on the creative project will begin after spring break.  Students are considered up to date for the class if all animation work and portfolio pages have been updated prior to spring break.




Programming the Web 1

During this short week leading up to spring break, students will have all three class periods to work on the midterm project.  Students have been given the task to create a website made up of four web pages about a "Border Collie Rescue".  All websites must be uploaded to Google Drive prior to spring break.  Students who need additional time to complete their site may see me to arrange for extra time before school, after school, or during lunch.

On Wednesday of this week, students will complete the 20 question midterm exam based on the 80 total multiple choice questions that we have seen so far this semester.


Programming the Web 2

This week Web 2 students will begin experimenting with "JavaScript".  We will learn a little bit about how we can add a little more functionality to our web pages.  This week we will explore how to correctly display the current date on our page as well as how to create a countdown to a specific date.
