The Week in CS559: Week 3 (Feb 4-Feb 8)

Last week, we had snow and cold – which threw off the schedule. This week we’ll get back on track.

Week 3 ( Mon, Feb 4 – Fri, Feb 8): Coordinate Systems, Transformations, and Hierarchy

Mon, Feb 4: Workbook 02: Two APIs (Web Graphics Basics) assigned
Tue, Feb 5: Lecture: Canvas and Drawing
Thu, Feb 7: Lecture: Coordinate Systems and Hierarchy
Fri, Feb 8: Workbook 02: Two APIs (Web Graphics Basics) due

Since we didn’t get to do Workbook 2 last week, we’ll do it this week instead. Tuesday’s lecture should help.

On Tuesday, we’ll talk about drawing with Canvas and use that as a way to look at more JavaScript programming concepts. On Thursday, we’ll talk about coordinate systems, transformations and hierarchy – key computer graphics concepts.

On Friday, workbook 2 is due. Having a week without a workbook probably won’t happen again.
