Lab #17 HTML/JS Forms

Lab 17 was a way of teaching us as programmers how to make a form with user input. The input of this lab was the users name, phone number and email. This data would be stored within the system and pop up in an alert message with text of our choosing. This combines the form tag in html to allow the formatting of the page to correspond with an actual form document to fill out. This was done with an input tag which allows the user to input a string or number to save it within an id. A web designer would need to know how to do this in order to work with businesses on their website. For example, if you have a company and you want to start hiring people online, you can use the form tag to create a form and then an input tag to receive information from them prior to the job. They would write an application on a form you create and you can do many other things with forms. It's like an online document that stores information for further use. It would definitely be useful to implement one of...

CTE Expo Junior Year

The objective of the CTE EXPO was to introduce new coming freshman to CTE Web Design Academy. We wanted to encourage them to start doing something that will earn them skills to get good paying jobs right after high school. For the CTE expo I had to step out of my comfort zone and socialize with people. I had woken up in the morning excited to wear my suit outside for the first time, and then one button went missing.

There were a good amount of people who had complimented me for my looks because of my suit. I think it showed others that "we mean business" and we take this course seriou...

Drealm Walkers - My First Game Development

To most people, beginning your first game would seem like a challenge, and it is. I can't lie and say it was an easy task. There are changes that happen during the game development process that end up changing your game in minor or major ways. Pre-drafting my game was brainstorming what kind of game it would be, what mechanics I would have in it and etc. Since I am a person who enjoys reading visual novels, and since it is a simple thing to do in my arsenal, I would make my game a visual novel with another genre. However, the other genre I wrote was plat-former. If you've played my game, you would see it isn't a plat-former. I realized I was over confident in my skill to coding this game so I wanted to challenge myself. I didn't want to spend so much time doing something that I had no clue how to do. So instead I changed the genre of my game to a visual novel/ clicker game. I had fun making this game and it had an entire story line behind it. When adding elements to my ...
