Dr. Panoff taught for the first portion of the class. He discussed the importance of Shodor and proved this through Google and the website of the National Science Foundation. He showed that if you search something such as "algebra quiz" online, Shodor was the first link out of one million. He also showed that Shodor was one of a handful of companies that have the privilege to be part of the NSF. After he left, Gavin took over and he did a quick review of the JavaScript model code they created yesterday. After explaining the code for their java model, he had them open up Text Wrangler (an editing software) and enter some more code, test the code, and enter more code. This continued until after break. Once they finished adding and testing the code, they closed their laptops, and Gavin explained "for" loops and "while" loops on the board. For loops are specific actions that are done in a certain amount of time, and while loops are actions that are done through an infinite amount of time. The students added the loops and successfully created their java model.
