journal entry #1

In comp sci so far, we have learned how to use html to create different things on our website. I have enjoyed comp sci so far becuase I found it very exciting being able to make spinning squares and being able to create my own website. Even though, I have struggled a little bit throughout the process, in general I am understanding what is happening in the class and am enjoying it

journal entry #2

journal entry #3

In comp sci, I just created my first annimation. In the beggining I had a little difficultly figuring it out. Once I looked in up on google, it helped me to realize my error and later I figured it out. First I made a square move across the screen and then later I put a image instead so a dog was going back and forth on the screen. I am happy with how it turned out but I also wanna add a ball to the annimation to make it more interesting.

journal entry #4

For homework in comp sci we worked on created a digital card and adding an event listener to the card. At first, I was nervous to start becuase I was not sure if I had remembered how to add an event listener. After looking at the previous event listener project that we did in class I remembered how to do it. I started by making my div and created all the atrbutes of it. Then I added my event listener with javascript, but the atributes weren't showing up in the color they normally do so I knew something was wrong. After figruing out that I had them in the wrong section of hmtl they changed to the right colors and I thought it would work. I opened it up in goggle and realized it didn't work. I am still unsure on why it is not working, but during class tommorow I hope to talk to Molly and ask her for some help

journal entry #5

In class and for homework, I was working on my square quilt. At first, I wasn't really sure what I wanted to make for it so I decided to just look for pictures that I wanted to make the quilt made of. After I had a problem with my one of my functions not working. I was struggling with it for a while, and then eventually found out what wasn't working.

journal entry #6

My valentines day project was made through two event listeners one for my photo and one for the words on the screen. I started with the first event listener and used mousenter to have one photo change to another photo. Then I moved onto the text and this text also changed when the photo changed.

journal entry #7

My circle project was made by using an event listener for the changing color in which you set x, y, x to random colors and referred back to them for the background color of the circle.

journal entry #8

For my slideshow project, I used Haikims website to help me make the parts of the slideshow. I looked up how to add the photos to the background and add the words on the screen. I like my slideshow a lot becuase I got to talk to my mom about the activities on Marthas Vineyard that I haven't done yet.

For my final project, I used the theme option and decided to focus on my mom and make projects about her. I did one for her birthday and one for valentine's day. I used an array and different event listeners to create my final project. For the slideshow, similar to my previous project, I used Haikims website to help with adding photos and adding words. Linking my projects to my slideshow was something I was struggling with so I asked for help from Molly in order to fix this and another issue that I had with the placement of different photos.
