day 5


-What was the biggest problem you encountered? How did you solve it?
The biggest problem we faced was making the spinner spin. In order for the game to work the spinner had to do all he 360 spin, so we had some trouble, but we were able to work it out. 

-When did you get your biggest "AH HA" idea? What was it?
The kind of  stuff we puted in the spinner that the kids had to do. 

-Who in your group resisted new ideas the most and why?
I think that the 3 of us: Juan Pablo, Silvia and me were looking for the same idea and the same things to put in the game so the planning and doing was really easy. 

-What doubts did YOU have about the project and how did you overcome those doubts?
Well some if the kids would eventually like the things we used in the game and we are going to know after sping break and as the kids if they liked it or not. 

-Who in your group played "devil's advocate" (a person who questions everything, even good ideas) and how did that help the process? 
This time no one in the group questioned we all did it together as a group so things were clear to all.

Snap/Scratch

after whatiching the tutorial for some ways to use snap I goit to take a look to se how some of the tools are used:

  • You basically run everything from the commands. These commands you can tell if you want motion, where to run everything and you also tell where do you want your character to move stop and everything. 








  • ANother thing i learned was that everything was puted together everythiong in a specific place where you edit it, this place is made up of comands 











  • After you put this together everything would be reflected and you could put everything to move by clicking the flag and that would move and do what every you told  it to do. 










  • By being paticing you can actually do things that are really cool and do complete games just like pak man. 








  • so basically is do games or things by things you put together
ONCE YOU USE IT THEN ITS REALLYDIFFCULT OR AT LEAST FOR ME. PUTING EVERYTHING TOGETHER AND THE THINGS TO USE ITS REALLY COMPLICATED AND I DONT KNOW WHAT TO PUT WHERE.
