The Luxurious Prototype

 Hi Visitor, This AP was the very first Action Project of this term. The preparation we did for this Action Project was going to the Harold Washington Library and to the children's space to have some sort of visualization of what a lounge would look like, we also had a conversation about the design process and possible orders to attack the situation. Then we had to make a floor plan that provides a safe, non-violent, inclusive and effective learning environment out of a GCE classroom. This is my design of the student lounge. 


  


 
"The Luxurious Prototype", K.J, 2022

The hardest part was probably filling the room up due to how much space there is. I tried filling the room to the best of my ability since I have no prior knowledge on to how to properly fill a room. I started with picking out the chairs, I wanted to fill the room the lounge with enough seats while maintaining the openness of the room so everyone doesn't feel bunched up together. But they have the possibility of moving the chairs if need be. Next, I thought of having a table in the middle so there is a possibility of having a small group of people being able to conversate or have a small study session available so having a moderately sized table would probably be best so people won't feel too close to the TV. But if a larger group would like to be around the table they can just fill the diagonal spaces in between the chairs if need be. Also having a coffee maker and an airfryer if they wanted to have a hot drink or heat up their lunch. Which transitions to the refrigerator if anyone would want to keep a drink cold.

The Consequences of Greed

  Drama is a class that talks about the challenges and norms of gender roles, and how these gender roles can be challenged with the use of theater.       In this term of drama, we discussed the roles gender plays in the Shakespeare play, The Tragedy of  Macbeth . I chose to address the character of Lady Macbeth and how she’s forcing the norm of men being cold onto Macbeth which leads him into a path of bitterness and over-confidence. Macbeth leaving her when she needs him most (since she’s going crazy due to her helping him with the murder of King Duncan). So in the end she’ll regret manipulating him to do a heinous action. This Action Project’s goal was to use Shakespeare’s writing style to address how gender roles are portrayed in the play and to give advice to a character if we had the chance. This is my sonnet.  " The Consequences of Greed " Lady Macbeth you know thy goal But do you know the cost  Wouldst you give up thy soul  And let thy sanity be lost  You have the cont

The MOVIE BOT IS ALIVE

 Hi Visitor, In my Intro to Coding class we were asked to make a chat bot, with 5 total questions using booleans and other aspects of coding. Before this project we learned about Boolean meanings and if statements. We learned how to format if statements, elif statements, and how to use if statements in certain situations. After we learned this we proceeded to work on the Action Project. I made a chatbot that'll talk about movies and has a keen liking to Spiderman.   It was my best project so far, but there were some challenges in the way. Like the formatting of having multiple if statements, multiple answers, and the biggest issue was the multiple combinations that could be typed in the movie genre question. Besides those problems the project was a pretty smooth process since I had a clear goal of what I wanted and not having to do as much improvisation.

The Alien Pseudocode

Hi Visitor, For the First Action project in code we were asked to make a pseudocode of a game. Due to this being an introductory project we did a group activity where we got into 2 small groups and one person had to be blindfolded and essentially go through a course based on the directions we as a group chose to write down and say to the blinded partner. This helped us give a sense of how a computer would think since we removed the senses that would give people an intuition to easily go through the small course that was set up. I did my project on the classic game "Space Invaders" and this is my attempt to make a Pseudo code of it.  The hardest part for me was trying to find the right words and breaking down the game to a level where I can find words that I think the computer would understand. I think there would be tons of errors; just to point one for example the bullet code line because I didn't define how a bullet would move towards the alien ships; I just hoped for
