Moss Point Computer Club Plans for Meeting One: [to be held in September 2014] - Discuss club officers - Pass out membership cards - Discuss Website - Discuss plans for the year - Discuss virtual meetings Plans for Meeting Two: - Briefly discuss the first meeting - Introduce HTML & CSS - Introduce Codeacademy - Begin working on lessons - Give users a challenge for the first week. Challenge: Create a library website with the text of 3 public domain books. - Website should contain at least 3 different books - Website should contain at least 3 different images - Website should have at least 4 different pages - Website should contain at least one table Books can be anything the user chooses as long as they are public domain or free to use. The challenge should be done before the virtual meeting the same day the next week. All complete entries will be posted on the website with the consent of the member. Users will be encouraged to continue their work on Codeacademy, but the next meeting will not pertain to HTML. Plans for Virtual Meeting One: - Discuss the challenge the users were given the previous week - Have users share their screens and individually tour the others through their website - Allow up to 3 minutes per person. - Tell any user that would like to have their work on the website to archive it and e-mail it to the club e-mail (mpcclub@outlook.com) or provide it at the next physical meeting Plans for meeting three: - Briefly discuss meeting two and vm1 - pass out minutes for m2 and vm1 - Have each member get to a computer with a basic interpreter - teach BASIC functions: - print - input - (variables) - cls - goto - rem - begin weekly challenge Challenge: Create a simple maze program where the user is taken through ten defined steps. Allow the user to go left or right. The programmer has the choice of whether or not to make the player start from the beginning. There are few restrictions on this one, so the programmer can get as creative as they want. - The game should have at least ten steps in the maze and at most 20 - All steps in the maze should be predefined (No random mazes!) - Programmers can add in eerie descriptions of the maze if they want Each program will be compiled and downloadable from the website. Again we will view everyone's program in the next virtual meeting. Each person will be allowed to copy the basic interpreter to his flashdrive or will be provided a disc with the software if they ask. Again they can either e-mail in their program or bring it in the next week.
