When asked the most important thing I should teach my students, the MIT student I was interviewing simply stated , ‘ teach them logic.’ – Mr. Le Duc

SUMMARY

• This week was a week that I learned the most things that I can use extensively.

PRACTICE ROOM (TUTORIALS)

PlayCanvas

• https://www.sololearn.com/Course/JavaScript/
• C#: All of the Basic Concepts.

Unity

• https://www.sololearn.com/Course/CSharp/

CLASSROOM (THEORY & ANALYSIS)

• Topics I want to remember:
  • Flow charts can have multipule endings
  • Flow charts can be used for a multitude of things
  • Each block represents an action that would be made in the programming of what it is being used for.
  • Color coded blocks help others understand what the blocks are for/what type of block they are.
  • Document blocks represent the saving of a specified data.
  • Two ending blocks can be used instead of one start and one end.

LAB (THEORY PRACTICED)

• I learned that when creating a flowchart, you have to thing about every possible choice able to be made in the chart for whatever it is for.

OUTSIDE (CREATIVITY & THE BRAIN)

• When I create something, I should try to keep a stable mental state if it gains popularity.

STUDIO (GAME DESIGN)

I learned some PlayCanvas things.

WHAT I LEARNED and PROBLEMS I SOLVED

• Today I had to complete multiple assignments that I had to come up with ideas on, because of these assignments I am learning to get better at thinking outside of the box by solving problems I may have in my school.

WEEKLY ACTIVITY EVALUATION

• The content in this weeks assignment was great and helped me learn more in the game development process and the way to do this was also helpful.
