Credits & Conclusion
We went into this class with the basic skills and understanding of the programs we used. The first day, we walked into class and started to get right to work. The advanced portion brought us so much, we learned new lessons, had a new theme, and new time management. A challenge was in store as our assignment, but we loved a challenge.
As for our website, we learned how to think outside of the box. The process of seeing how others respond to a phrase or shape was absolutely incredible. We saw many different reactions and thoughts going through their minds. We never really thought about how others can think until we conducted this activity.
One thing we really loved was our time as a team. We worked together last year as well, and have been long-time friends ever since we could remember. Having someone that knows you as your partner made the whole experience so much better than it already was.
Coding and photoshop became a trait, and increased with every new thing we were taught. Of course, it is heavy and time consuming, but we enjoyed every single moment of it. Being able to see the turnout and final result of our website made us ecstatic to compete in the advanced section.
My name is Cecilia DuPont, I am 16 years old, and my dream job is to become a meteorologist. As well as last year, I still aspire to go into the field of science and weather. This competition has gotten me interested in code and computer science. I enjoy being outdoors, as well as in a classroom. My favorite page would have to be the School page, mostly because I find that a sentence can show someone's thinking and perspective on
things. I think writing shows a unique and somewhat pathway into one's’ mind. School can sometimes be tough, but I have always enjoyed finishing and experiencing something big like this website.
My name is Mackenzi Steinmetz, I am also 16 years old, and my dream job is to become a computer engineer. Different from last year, I have gotten more into coding and computers overall. I play soccer and just like Cece, I enjoy being outdoors and in the class. My favorite page on our website was Creativity because of the different things and drawings our friends came up with. Creativity can show significant similarities and contrasts in personality and characteristics.
