This project is designed to raise the plastic pollution awareness of people. It is a game similar to whacamole, but instead finding plastics and reading some facts about the ocean. Because this is turned in late, I did not have time to implement other water backgrounds like the lake or ponds, to add more information about plastic pollution. 23 I spent around 2 and a half hours on this project. 24 I referenced a bit from the Oscar problem. 25 I think scratch is a very simple programming language that is easy to understand for beginners. Kids can understand the basics of programming, collaborate on projects through the use of Scratch, and share their projects online. However, though it does mimic the rough outline of programming language, it is not like java, and does not contain any actual program stuff. 26 Looking back as a student that has already learnt java, I believe scratch is a very good start for beginners to understand basic logic in programming. I also find it fun and much more simple in implementing images and audio compared to java. 27 I struggled with the concept of the mouse. I wanted to create a sprite that follows the mouse and changes color when it clicks on the other sprites. I managed to create the sprite and made it change colors, but because of how it is a sprite instead of a mouse, it is much more complicated to make it click on other sprites compared to simply the command "click". This is where I struggled.
