In today's project,
you learned an important computer science concept,
broadcasting, while you created
with an important storytelling concept, characterization.
Storytelling has been around for thousands of years.
As new technology has developed,
so have new ways of telling stories,
from word of mouth, and cave paintings,
to books, to today's computers
that tell interactive stories.
Modern day story tellers can use computers
to give their audience choices,
to make animations,
to tell stories through dance, and in many other ways.
A few years ago when I got the idea
to combine code and dance to create iLuminate.
(electronic dance music)
I thought, what if you could actually wirelessly control
these lights, and actually communicate
the lights and the dancer, that would be really cool.
You can access Scratch and tell stories
to your friends and family
on any computer with internet access.
The storytelling never has to end.
Remember to look for ways to use coding in your daily life.
Talk to your teachers about building a Scratch report
on a topic for class.
Next Club Dane, you will create a story
that lets the audience make decisions for your character.
Go for it and tell your story.
