Test review

We got our tests back today and I did not do as well as I thought I would. I found that the test was fairly easy but when Mr.Arkin was taking up the test today, it was all so different than what I expected. I actually did not fail luckily but I did get a bad mark below 70. I could tell I would do bad when Mr.Arkin was taking it up.

Mr.Arkin handed us each a copy of the test and asked us to answer them and then Mr.Arkin took it up as a class. We each took turns to answer and Mr.Arkin also showed us his model answers. I was surprised to see many mistakes I made. I am hoping that everything else I have done will upgrade my mark so that it is at least a high 70%. I am going to study my butt off for the exam and work very hard for the culminating activity to boost my mark. We also learned a little about "Don't argue with parameters" and "Creating executable". It was actually really cool because now we can send it to any of our friends and let them have some fun. Mr.Arkin showed us a program today which was really cool where the user enters a character and the program repeats this character and bounces it off. I thought that it was just going to be a model of what we could do for our culminating activity but then he asked us to make the program ourselves. I was surprised! I have no idea how to do it. I am not even close! I now have an idea though so I am going to try!

For homework, we have to create the program, write on our daily blogs and get our tests signed. Wish me luck!
