Lab 5 Reflection

-
In this lab, we had to utilize the jQuery animate method. This lab was particularly challenging because my original intention for the code was to have the buttons be a toggle, but as I kept going it proved itself to be not worth going after. After thinking about it, I decided to have the buttons animate the property then return it to its original state rather than having it be a toggle.

For future projects, the animate method can be useful for keeping the user on the page instead of redirecting the user to another page. The method can also be useful for transitioning between elements to keep a flow of ideas coming in.

Final Portfolio Reflection

The Final Portfolio project is supposed to be the culmination of all our works over the 3 years we've been in Web into one website. This portfolio is supposed to contain all our works from Visual Design all the way to Web Client Programming. To make it more interesting, each of our portfolios had its own style which made it distinct from others. As a result, you can tell whose portfolio you are on based on what you immediately see in front of you. I started building my portfolio slowly during the school year. It went through a few iterations before it became the final product. As it is, I'm happy at how my portfolio came out, it resembles the vision I had for it and contains all my previous works I have done over the years.

Seminar 2

On the final day of CTESS, we reported to the Bank of America building to recap on what we had done in the program and present our topics from the Youth Think Tank. Other students offered their criticisms and feedback to our presentation and vice versa. The seminar also told us what to expect in our future and what steps we can take to ensure that it is successful. I had some prior knowledge of this topic because I had been to some workshops that taught me how to ensure that my future is successful.

Lab 29

For this lab, we created a special text shadow that moves based on your cursor's position. To do this, we first had to create a word that acts as our "anchor". Then, through a series of JavaScript commands, we create four separate text shadows that circle around our anchor word based on our mouses position. The result is a psychedelic effect which is quite appealing to the user's eyes. I actually saw this particular lab showcased on a senior's laptop in last year's CTE Expo.
