Rob,
 
I remember seeing exams that have snippets of AS2 in an exam then getting students to 'find 3 errors' or some such task. This is my first year teaching it so someone else may know more than me on this one!

Thanks for the tutorials Trav.

I'm a little confused about the 'only AS2' condition you mentioned.

If scripting is not examined on the exam except in the form of pseudocode (am I right?), then where is the problem.

 

Can anyone shed some light on this - have I missed a reference to this issue in a VCAA document?

Ray,

 

I have spent Summer learning AS3 (Only to be told at Friday's PixelEd conference that we can only use AS2!), so here are some tutorials that I have written.

 

'Boxes using a button' is changing frames by clicking a button

'Boxes using a keystroke' is changing frames with a keystroke

'Interactive files' is a multiple choice application

'Jumping to a random frame' makes use of a button that, when pressed jumps to a random frame.

 

Enjoy!

 

Trav

Not being a programmer, AS 3 looks far too complicated for me, a radical
change from AS2 - I know that there's no on(release) or on(press) events
anymore!
Does this help?

Good Luck!
