Group Chat Week 4
This week, you first got introduced to DOM manipulation and events - allowing us to do lots of cool stuff to edit our HTML/CSS with JavaScript.
As usual, we’ll go around in a circle, and you can talk about what’s been going on for the past week. In this circle’s exercises, we’ll be practicing all of this with some simple problems.
The person whose first name is fourth alphabetically should lead the discussion.
Week 4 Reflection | 20-30 minutes
Go through each member of the group, and answer the following questions:
-
What did you find the most challenging this week, or what did you not understand?
- Can anyone else in the circle give an explanation based on their own understanding?
- If not, make a message in the week-4 channel on the Discord, and Adam will answer it.
-
Did you start the homework already? How far did you get through it?
- If you already finished it, then show off your work! Did anyone complete a rock, paper, scissors game!?
Group Exercise | 20-25 minutes
Go through each of the following code snippets one-by-one. Give yourselves 2 minutes to take a look at it, see if you can crack the answer by yourself, and then compare your answer with the others!
- What do all of the variables contain in this code?
- Why doesn’t this code change the h1 tag to red?
- Why doesn’t this code (different) change the h1 tag to red?
- What is this code trying to do, and why isn’t it working?
- Why does the output break when we press the submit button in this code?
