I make a model using a scale factor of 1/10. It goes like this: I have a car that is 400cm long. LAB 2x: Add pests that damage score and regenerate.I’m teaching scale factors right now and I find it very illustrative of the problems that happen when students are learning mathematics as a set of procedures. Students gain a better understanding of implementing object interactions. Students should become more proficient in applying method calls, and in using the Greenfoot Actor and World classes as well as be able to work out relationships and interactions between classes/ objects.

Review java concepts via the code in the turtle game. Reflect on concepts learnt so far, especially examining object creation and interaction as well as method calls.

Please submit the zip file of the crab eating worms scenario as per the above two tutorials – into moodle here:.

This way, you know more about detecting other objects, and how to ‘eat’ them (ie: remove them). - does the same collision detection you know of – of a crab that you control with ‘left and ‘right’ keys – eating worms – this time you use the greenfoot code rather than the helper code of the ‘animal’ class.Students gain more insights into collision detection and the life-cycle of objects. Submit project scenario zip file here (moodle).implement all code to allow your frog to cross the road safely - use a 'jump' method perhaps along with directional control?.download project scenario here - cars moving fast on a two lane highway, with your frog waiting for code help to cross the road.They also learn more about simulation - in the simplification of cars moving on a 2-lane highway Students apply the concepts learnt as well as much of the code written. Lesson 8-9: Independent class work: ASN 22- Froggie crossing the road

Students gain more insight into the world of object interaction.

code help: Turtle code_v4 (with score board).

Students discuss the ways in which a score board on the game screen will need to interact with the world and game actor objects.

Lesson 7: Turtle game - Object interaction - the score counter and finishing touches Students decompose a problem, and use loops and conditions.

Talk more about problem decomposition and object interaction.

We discuss the implementation of the last question in the quiz: creating a jump effect.

10 min quiz on greenfoot basics encountered thus far in the turtle game.

Students study class documentation for the first time and learn to find methods and syntax needs as per their requirements.ĪSN 21 - Jumper - implement a jump method for the 'up' key'.

code help: Turtle code_v3 (with score variable).

Students discuss the scoring needs and specs, then implement the code.

Students use the Greenfoot class documentation to look for more commands, giving some customisation to their game versions.

Lesson 4: Turtle game - The Greenfoot API and game scoring and control Students think critically while decomposing the simple problems and at the same time become more object oriented. Students appreciate the concepts of class, object, method, instance, return value, return type, void, int, boolean, method call, parameter, method definitions, and conditional IF statements.

Students add finer controls, thinking of turning agility and more controlling keys.

first idea about event driven programming.

Lesson 3: Turtle Game - keyboard control and sound Students get a little more idea of object orientation, the greenfoot environment, and begin problem decomposition Lesson 2 - Turtle – add food, enemies, collision detection, customise Students get an overview of greenfoot, and modify the turtle code - thinking critically of introducing some random behaviour.

Students understand how to download and install greenfoot, and all learning documentation, resources, and scenarios. Greenfoot environment Begin first game – Turtle
