Your first assignment is:

1. 
   

   Set up your p5.js account and become familiar with the editor.

   
   


2. 
   

   Introduce yourself on the Introductions discussion board (see the link under this week’s content section)!

   
   


3. 
   

   Watch the refresher videos listed in the Materials step above.

   
   


4.

5. 
   

   Post your p5.js link on the Week 1 Submissions Discussion Board. Write a ~ 200 word description about what you made and your process. You can write anything, but if you’re stuck here are some guiding questions:

   
   




• 
  

  What did you originally intend to create?

  
  


• 
  

  Narrate the process of creating your sketch.

  
  


• 
  

  What resources and examples did you draw on to create your sketch? What was most helpful / least helpful from this week’s materials.

  
  


• 
  

  What problems/discoveries did you encounter along the way?

  
  




6. 
   

   Paste the link to your discussion post (not just the code) as your assignment submission.

   
   


7. 
   

   Please also write a short response on at least two other classmate’s sketches on the forum. Review the Feedback Guide (especially the “Content” section) for ideas on what to talk about. Note: It’s okay to do this step after the deadline, when everyone has submitted!
