Update Wednesday March 18

Contact me by email

Make sure you send me an email that I can reply to, so I can contact you every day. About 10 of you have not yet sent me an email. This is an assignment and it may be bringing down your grade already. Send your email to mbrautigam@metroed.net.

Clarification on SVG

I need you to recreate the exact SVG drawings that I posted on the blog. Except that you may change the colors and fonts, but it must have the same content.

Career Readiness

I will continue to assign you career readiness grades each week. Many companies are having their employees work from home. Those employees are still expected to work. I will base your career readiness grade on how much I see you working on this class. You must send me an email. You must turn in some assignments.

And you must check Infinite Campus. I can see when was the last time you logged into Infinite Campus. For some of you, the last time you logged in was one month ago. This is not sufficient to check your grades and my comments on your work.

Do you need your code?

If you need your code that is on your computer in the classroom, I may be able to get it for you. Teachers are not allowed on campus, but they are talking about possibly allowing us to go on campus one day later this week or next week. If you need your code, let me know, and I'll try to get what you need.

If you need a specific assignment that you already turned in, I may have it right here on my computer at home and I may be able to send it to you.

Xcode

If you are able to do Swift coding from home, which I encourage, there is a place for you to turn in your work, by Units, not lessons. You'll need a Mac at home to do this.

Extra Credit

Filmmaker Gary Hustwit is streaming his documentaries free worldwide during the shutdown. Helvetica is a famous design documentary about the Helvetica font and its impact. The documentary is almost 1.5 hours long. If you watch the documentary, I will give you extra credit. To prove that you watched the documentary, send me a Google Doc with one or two paragraphs what the film was about, what you learned from it, and what surprised you. If you take notes, attach your notes also.

Like all other extra credit, you must complete all the other five assignments (this week) before you can receive extra credit.
