Week2 - [Guided Task] Improving the Harry Potter Story
Introduction
In the last couple of videos we looked at coordinating several sprites to tell a story. We talked about doing this through timing and coordinated messages (broadcast).
This is a non-graded task that I actually think will make your graded activity easier to complete by giving you some structured practice first. In it, you will start with a simple, two-character story that uses both timing (scene1) and broadcast messages (scene2). You will modify this story in a manner of your choosing.
If you would like to work with a partner on this activity I am fine with that (I put students in groups of three when I use this in my live classroom).
You will NOT submit anything for this activity to me. This is purely meant to give you some guided practice. Having said that, if you have questions, don't hesitate to ask.
