App Development

aideni2020Leave a comment

What my app does is it senses potential hazards, like roots that you could trip over, or trees in your way, by taking input from a GPS on your phone, (mobile plan required for this), and what it outputs, is what is in your immediate way. This app would work best for people with bad vision, no vision, or for night walkers.

The parts of the Design process I used were Prototyping, Defining, and Ideating.

I’m most proud what this app would do, albeit, would become obsolete quickly, seeing as you could just use a flashlight to illuminate your way, but it was still a neat idea.

Animation projects

Frame by Frame animation is the term used when you would animate one frame at a time, as you go, and it all flows together well.

The animation process is very similar on paper and using Animate, one frame in the program, is equal to one card on paper.

Not much more was learned during this project, as I had done Animation in a previous class, so everything I learned there transferred over.

Exploring Powtoon

Today we explored Powtoon. I do not like this program very much, as for some reason, the templates would disappear when I was browsing for the one I needed. Other then that, things are not very organized, in my opinion, and certain objects were full white, with no border around them, effectively making them invisible. I personally do not see any points in the future where i would use powtoon for anything. There’s a saying that goes something like “if you need something done, you gotta do it yourself”, and that’s what I would most likely do for a resume, or animation.

HTML and CSS website

I used the HTML to make sure the list was working correctly, and that all the text was aligned the way I wanted, while CSS was used to make the text a bit more readable, and to style the website.

I want people to notice the image, and see the above text, hoping they read it.

I used Creative thinking, because i had to make the website look nice, which required me to think outside of the box slightly.

ICT 9 and Core Competency Predictions

I think we will practice Communication and Collaboration by doing group projects. We can practice Creative Thinking by trying to think up some new ideas from some small items around us. Another way is to draw experience from others to better understand their ideas, and benefit the whole group. I think Social Awareness will be used by making sure laptops are sanitized for the next persons use. Personal Awareness, meanwhile, would be practiced by making sure you sanitize your hands when you enter the school, always make sure you have a mask on, stay 6 feet apart, and staying home when unwell. Critical and Reflective Thinking would possibly be used after an assignment is completed, to check and review if it can be improved or not, then have a peer review it for you, to gain from their experience and feedback. As for Positive Personal and Cultural Identity, I think it would be understanding and respecting yours and other peoples backgrounds and choices.
