From a student - The class does teach you the basics of Scratch, and you are given a lot of opportunities to show your creativity with certain projects, although there wasn't much interaction with other coding programs. Practice doing Scratch over the weekends, use the tutorials and reference slides to help you, and search up guidance videos for when you are confused about what to do. This is only when you're stuck and need a tiny bit of inspiration (no mimicking it completely). Do NOT copy other people's projects. Like, AT ALL. Also, search up aesthetic pictures for inspiration on projects. Peace out.

Also, you may need to have a bit of note-taking for the beginning of the elective and may need to remember important terms. Then the fun activities begin. In addition, you may feel like your brain has been wrecked by the end of the elective. Do not feel this way, calm down, get a cup of green tea (or whatever beverage soothes you), take a few deep breaths, and ASK Ms. Khor for help! (you will definitely need it, and it will pay off in the long run. ) That is all - From a former Intro to Comp. Science student
