8P9 - Scratch

Using Scratch, I created two people on a field playing soccer and one of them going and shooting the ball because I thought it would be fun to code some people playing soccer against each other and one of them shooting the ball into the goal.

During this process, I learned how to code better using scratch and how make my coding look better and not so rough. I also learned more things about scratch like how to better my coding and change the background, along with the looks of my characters during this project.

The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to innovative designer because I had to design the coding a bunch of different times in order for it to work.

A challenge I overcame on this project was figuring out how to make it look like she actually kicked the ball into the goal and have it look good and realistic. I was able to do it by testing out a bunch of different codes and seeing which went/looked best that made her look like it wasn't coded.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change it to where there are more players on the field going for the ball rather than two. The reason why I would change it is because it would be more of a challenge for me and it would be fun to put more coding into it.

Hastings High School Career and Technical Education Program offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, Marketing. My project connects to the computer programming CTE program at Hastings High School. My project connects to careers in programming, coding, and mainly anything that has codes that you have create or fix.
