No materials for the event yet, sorry!

Anyone can write a tried-and-true exam question that says “write a block according to the following specifications”, or “predict what does the following code do?”. We have collectively been authoring Snap! assessments (well, it was BYOB back in the day) for over 16 years, and would like to share some much more creative ways we’ve come up with to assess Snap! programming. The topics we will include and demo range from basic functions, domain/range, composition, testing, debugging, boolean logic, concurrency, higher-order functions, and recursion. Overall, we hope to demo over twenty different questions on many different topics. With each question, we’ll talk about the spirit behind the question, and why that question was a novel way of looking at the material. There will be ample time for Q&A throughout the presentation; when a presenter is not speaking, they will be active in the Zoom chat responding to questions and comments.
