Computational Creation enables me to be creative.
Introduction
In Term 3 we will be working on Scratch programming. This is creative computing and enables us to explore various sprites and commands in Scratch.
Reflection
What was my inspiration?
I was hoping to be able to tell people the basics about me and what I like as well as what I don't like whilst keeping it entertaining. I also wanted to give anyone who saw or will see this enough time to read the questions.
How did I do that?
I believe that I kept it entertaining by always changing the costume as well as the background after every question. I also did give that enough time to read the facts as I made sure that every fact stayed on for three seconds.
What did I get stuck on? How did I get Unstuck?
I got slightly stuck on how to make the sprite and the background change at a similar time, but I figured that if I went on control and took the "wait for _ seconds" I could time the entire project to take as long or as short as I want. I had chosen for every change to wait 3 seconds as it is a fact that humans like it when things come in threes.
What am I most proud of?
I am very proud that I was able to draw myself, at least good enough to look like a human being, as it is incredibly hard to draw on a computer and I didn't want to take a picture of myself and import it to the presentation. I am also proud that I was able to use this tool efficiently, at least for a beginner.
What might I do next?
I want to learn how to make two sprite or costumes to show at the same time and make them have a conversation as I believe that would be an interesting thing to do and I would be able to understand how this tool works and expand my reach of usable resources in case we have an assessment on programming in the future when we are older. So it would be something beneficial to not just me, but my peers as well.
Global Context
1) ATL Skills
Information Literacy
Creative Thinking
Introduction
In Term 3 we will be making Scratch programs that will require the two ATL skills listed above, Information Literacy and Creative Thinking. Here I will be explaining how I will be using them. I will use my two ATLs, in this reflection I will be
explaining how. For the ATL of Information Literacy I will be researching and
gaining information on how to use scratch and one what I am supposed to do as
it is a difficult program and I am not the most skilled at it. I will be using
Creative Thinking by making my own personalized idea. I will be coming up with
my idea by using something that I feel strongly about. So far I have come up
with the idea of making my project either about not judging one another as I
think that this is a very important topic that needs to cease of happening in
the world or to make one about how a polite word a gesture may make a very big
difference in this world. So, in conclusion, I will be using both of my ATLs
Skills in the process of the future project.
Identities and Relationships
Personal and Cultural Expression
Fairness and Development
Justification
The reason why I have chosen these three things I because I
have decided, as I stated above, to make it about either, not to judge people
or about how a polite gesture could make the difference between a friend and an
enemy. Now I will explain about how each of these three things is related to my
future Scratch project. The first Global Context is Identities and Relationships;
this relates to my future Scratch Project as it will be about judging peoples
identities and possible future relationship. The second Global Context is Personal
and Cultural Expression, this is related to my future Scratch Project as it is
about Personal Expression and the reason the other person is judging the second
one might be because of Cultural Expression. The last and final Global Context
is Fairness and Development. This also relates to my idea as it will be about
not showing fairness and how important it actually is. It can also be taken in
a way that it is about development of manners and the way people think, or
even, the way they see things in this world.
