Scratch Tutorial-Interactive Whirl

The first Scratch Tutorial which I am blogging on is the 'Interactive Whirl'. This tutorial allows the user to distort the squirrels face as they move the mouse around their page. The above picture demonstrates before hand whilst the below pictures shows what happens.

This was acieved by using the 'whirl effect' block in Scratch, as seen below.

Researching Multimedia Presentation Tools---PAGEFLAKES

http://www.pageflakes.com/

Q
1. If you have not yet clicked the Menu button do so now. What is a “Flake”? What types of flakes can you add?
2. What is a pagecast? View some pagecasts created by others.
3. How could we use a pagecast in the context of our project this term?


A
1. "Flakes" are small, movable versions of all your web favourites that you can arrange on your personal homepage. Types of "Flakes" you can add are:

• Applications & Tools


• News & Blogs (RRS)


• Audio (Podcasts)


• Photos


• Videos

2. "Pagecasts" are pages which users share with other users. There are two types of Pagecasts: Group Pagecasts are pages that are shared between friends or the members of a group and that can be viewed by invited members only. Public Pagecasts are pages which users have published to the entire world.

3. This term we could use a pagecast as part of our project to present our project on-we can have different pages with different multimedia files such as video, text, pictures, and sound files.
