Java Script Programming
Lecturer: Forrest Oliphan
This workshop was aimed at Media Design students and it was showing them how to programm in Java Script. We were using an online environment to follow the exercises and write the script :
The exercises were for example showing us how to give properties to an object in code. For example how to change colour or position, movement etc. The lecturer was demonstrating and explaining the code via a projector and we were then writing the code in the online editor.
This process was followed by most students, it was obvious that they had some previous experience of programming and understanding of more complex terms such as arrays.
I had some experience of Java programming, which is a bit different to Java Script so I was able to follow the exercises.
During the break I had a short discussion with the lecturer and explained the purpose of my observation. He gave me a link to a site, which he co-created called Meemoo. This site is an open source creative web app and Forrest suggested that I could get my students to test it for him and to send him the feedback.
I did show the site later to my IT study group and the students were quite keen to try out different apps. Some of them were more intuitive then others and perhaps a bit difficult also for the age group that I was teaching 15-16 year old, so I was not able to send feedback in an a way that I would like to have done.
