Monday December 16

Mr. Brautigam will not be in class today. Your assignment is to bring up your grade. You are to work quietly and independently. You may help each other, but you must do so in such a way that others around you can work.

The biggest improvement in your grade will come from turning in these assignments if they are missing:

• App Ideas (share me 3 app ideas in Google Docs according to the instructions, or you may print them to printer 251).
• Print Poster. Tuesday is the last day I can accept your print poster for credit. Also, if you do not turn in the print poster, you cannot enter the competition.
• App Journal. Lessons 1-6 only. Share with me in Google Docs.  
• Improve your final portfolio case studies. 
• Improve your final portfolio technical aspects (navigation, etc.)
• Review playground. Some of you did not turn it in.

If you have completed all these items, here are some things you could work on:

• Find an Adobe Illustrator tutorial on the other blog post today.
• Continue working independently as much as you can on Xcode lessons 14, 15, etc. up to Lesson 20.
• In Lesson 17, you will make an app from scratch. There is no starting point playground and no starting point code. Set up your app to use Storyboards, NOT SwiftUI. 
• Lesson 20 has two parts, both apps, and you will do both parts.
• Lessons 14-20 are more difficult than the previous lessons.

Mr. Brautigam will not be in class today. If you are all caught up with everything, here are some suggestions for Adobe Illustrator tutorials you may try.
