Fall Semester - Self Evaluation

     This fall semester I was happy with my grade but I felt like I could have done better with my labs by adding more detail. I learned many things during the fall semester and these things included experience with textedit, Dreamweaver and Flash. I learned how to create different types of symbols with Adobe Flash CS6 and animate them so that the symbols had their own actions. I also learned how to save the animation as a SWF file and how to insert it into a HTML document. I then added code to add a title and background color which I learned how to do in the beginning of the semester.
   
     The fun, easy and enjoyable part of this semester was creating the symbols and animations even though it was the hardest it was enjoyable because you were able to make whatever you want and choose the colors you wanted. Another easy part was adding the SWF file to a HTML document and upload it to the server so that it would be able to be seen online. The challenging part of this semester was using the tweens in the animations and making the animations work. It was hard because I felt like there was more than 1 way to do it and it was hard to make only one symbol move and not have it affect other symbols or the background. Making the symbols were also challenging and changing the shapes and adding colors and filters to make your symbol look more realistic. The boring part of this semester was adding the SWF files into a HTML document and uploading it online.
   

     This semester I can improve by adding more details into my labs. I can pay more attention in class and focus more on my work. I felt like this semester I did good with time management but I feel like I can still do better with it. Adding more details to my labs can make them look better and will help me in future projects which will make  my work look more presentable. Everything I experienced this fall semester from troubleshooting to animations and coding was very vital to my future because it will all be needed. These skills and experience will be very helpful and can impact my future.
