Don't forget to add a screenshot to your slide and your results to your typing log.

In middle school/high school, you have a certain requirement to hit, and if you reach that requirement, you have an A, you get your diploma, etc. After high school, it often doesn't work that way. Universities only accept so many students, there isn't a specific requirement that magically means you'll get into any school- instead they are choosing which students look best to them. Employers are the same way; they are only going to choose whichever candidates look best to them.

Whatever you decide to do in the future, you want to think about how you're standing out against your peers.

We've also talked some about portfolios, and we'll continue to. Portfolios are how you can help demonstrate how you are different than your peers and why a school or company should choose you over someone else. No matter where you go to school next year, whether you're in IB or not, you should consider developing your portfolio.

Once you're at the maze, write code for Karel to retrieve the beeper;
in other words: 

• first you need to have Karel move to the beeper, 

• then pick up the beeper, 

• lastly return to the starting position.

When you know this works, create a video recording of your program working successfully, and add this to your slide for today.
