Today, we will pick one or two past projects that you have worked on and extend them as you like. Tomorrow, we will showcase your best project to the rest of the class, so put your best effort into your most proud project so far.
It will help to sketch out how you will build up your project on your journal. You will be explaining to your camp mates what you planned to do and how you achieved it. Or what was your intention and how you failed in getting there. That’s alright, it’s part of the process, as you will know by now. Each person will have 10 minutes to explain and show their projects tomorrow. So think about and prepare what you will want to tell your friends about your project.
These are some topics you can talk about when you talk about your project:
- What was your goal for the project?
- What different things did you try out to achieve the goal?
- How did you know what sprites are needed and where they should go?
- Was there a time when your project didn’t run as you wanted?
- How did you figure out what was wrong?
- How did you fix the problem?
- Was the project based on an existing code?
- How did you modify or improve the existing code?
- Are there any remaining problems in the code?
- What are you most proud of about your project?
- What did you enjoy most about the process?
- What are your future plans for the project?
