WEEK 14

Continued with Flash 8 today! We familiarised ourselves with making Quizzes Had a pretty tough time with Drag and drop. Slowly took the time to figure out the how it all worked. But I'm glad i figured it out in the end! Ms Nah even said it looked impressive! YAY.

Better start doing the APEL topic soon! Forgot to bring it this week.

Kinda slacked this week I think, but I feel alot more satisfied this week. I think I'm beginning to get the hang of things now. I hope I have enough time to do a nice E-learning package!

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP MS NAH! (:

WEEK 13

JUST FOUND OUT THAT MS NAH'S BOSS WAS SITTING BEHIND THE ENTIRE FIRST HOUR! Oh me gosh! I feel so embarrassed, according to Ms Nah I was chatty, but somehow, I don't really remember. :s

And yes, I'm blogging in class! Everyone is playing around with their Final Presentation slides but.......I kinda forgot which topic I was doing. Oops. Going home to check (:

It's 4.48pm now and MS NAH JUST REMINDED US TO UPDATE OUR BLOG! *waves* HAHA.

Anyway, the last thing we learnt was about the Common Libraries, Learning interactions for Quizzes. After all our hard work today, Ms Nah finally decided to tell us that TEMPLATES existed. So all our struggling when there were wonderfully pre-made designs! SIGH.

Just continued to do my Flash from last week to add buttons, navigations, transitions and make the wheel spin! WEE.

Note: the primary one quiz looks so nice now compared to when we were shown it in the first few weeks. Cos' now, I know how hard I'd be struggling to make a nice design like that!

OKAY! I'm off, will continue this at home! LOOK OUT FOR WEEK12 Part B!!! xD

WEEK 12

Today was a continuation of the previous Flash 8. Ms Nah was so kind enough to give us a WONDERFUL New Year present.........

LAB GUIDE SHEETS FOR MACROMEDIA FLASH8.

Say.. WOW!

Anyway, instead of a circle, we started with a polystar instead! But well, this was just the beginning of a very very tedious day of Flash. *pulls a long face. Sadly, we've just got to get the hang of the program. We HAVE to because we'll be needing it for our project later on. A basic Flash presentation with animations and buttons and all.

The sample given for the buttons and we had to edit them. Kinda likedthe fact that it changed colour when the mouse went over it. Pretty impressive stuff! Learnt to edit the button and animate it as well. Of course, the most important part was adding navigations to websites or another page on the presentation and such. Not to forget, we had to test the SWF file as well.

The last part of the lab was cool. Was giving the skeleton of one of the Flash presentations Ms Nah showed us before of some cars. We had to go through the tutorial to learn more functions such as saving a picture in the library so it could be copied to be used if need be throughout the presentation. Editting any library graphic and saving it would also affect all copies used.

We also had to play around with the wheel. I only got as far at changing the rotation angle and speed before class ended. Saw a cool example where the wheel fades!

Mmm. Maybe I could try it out next week! Oh I sure hope it doesn't get too hard though. *Crosses fingers*
