How are you?
Tell me about your experiences writing code.
| I’ve written my first code last semester while working in Unity (C#) and have tried to learn the basics of programming (esp Python) on Youtube. It seems very complicated, and I wouldn’t want to pursue a future in it. However, I am willing to learn more! |
|
I had the barest minimum of python, html, and java in freshman year of highschool, I have forgotten all of it, and my school honestly just gave us the answer to all of the problems we were asked to solve with the code. I have pretty much zero coding knowledge since it’s been so long. I’m pretty indifferent to coding, but I’m sure that will change once I get more into it.
|
| I have done minimal to zero coding, and I’m terrified of it! I respect it though—I have similar feelings towards coding as I do alligators and other large predators. |
| HTML/CSS/Python/p5jS and I felt… no bueno, but it’s been maaaaaybe getting a liiiiitle better over the years? |
|
I’ve tried with some pretty meh teachers in middle school and did a not-so-great job… I’ve always wanted to try again though, in a proper setting.
|
| I am nervous because I don’t feel as computer-y as the other people at CMU. I don’t have experience with code. |
| I’ve had a little bit of writing computer code back in high school but I don’t think I was very confident in it. I remember setting up a new website for a portfolio in an art program? |
|
I don’t have much experience writing code. Most of what I’ve learned was block code (Scratch, Alice, EDGAR, some Lego stuff). I also understand HTML and CSS, but I’m not very good at writing it myself.
|
| I have no experience but I understand the concept of it. I feel motivated to learn it but also kinda lazy about it. |
|
My only coding experience so far has been taking 15-112 last semester
|
| I have been coding (off and on – right now I’m definitely rusty) since I’ve been in about 7th/8th grade. I was in a girls who code chapter for many years, took AP CS at my high school and did a coding internship at a company my junior year. Despite all of this, I still don’t feel like I’m all that good at it? It just doesn’t come as natural as art does for me. But I hope to get to the point where it does feel natural! |
| I have no experience but I look forward to learning it in the future |
Do you have any questions or concerns about this class?
|
About how much time will we dedicate toward this class every week?
|
|
None at the moment apart from my coding fears, but I’ll be sure to ask if any come up. Have a great weekend, I can’t wait to meet you!
|
|
I’m a little scared of computer code in general and I’m worried I’ll fall behind or be confused.
|
|
Will we be mostly doing digital work, a mix of physical and digital, or something else I didn’t mention? Will we receive a kit for this class like some of us received for our fall semester classes?
|
|
I am just a bit worried about my computer (since it is a mac) being able to handle certain things on top of my intro to animation class… but that’s about it. I am so, so excited for this class – this is the type of art I hope to be doing in the future!
|
|
Will we be working most digitally, physically, or a mix of both? Will we receive a kit for this class? Thanks!
