Create PT - Written Response Template: Assessment Overview and Performance Task Directions For Students

This document provides directions for students to submit a performance task for an AP assessment. It includes prompts for students to submit a video demonstrating a program feature, along with written responses. The written responses must identify the programming language, purpose of the program, development process with difficulties and solutions, code segments with explanations, and an abstraction with explanation. The document also provides instructions to export all materials as separate files for submission.

Assessment Overview and Performance Task Directions for Students

Video ​Submit one video in .mp4, .wmv, .avi, or .mov format that demonstrates the running of at 
least one significant feature of your program. Your video must not exceed 1 minute in length 
and must not exceed 30MB in size 
 
Prompt 2a. ​Provide a written response or audio narration in your video that: 
● identifies the programming language; 
● identifies the purpose of your program; and 
● explains what the video illustrates.  
(Must not exceed 150 words) 

2b. ​Describe the incremental and iterative development process of your program, focusing on 
two distinct points in that process. Describe the difficulties and / or opportunities you 
encountered and how they were resolved or incorporated. In your description clearly indicate 
whether the development described was collaborative or independent. At least one of these 
points must refer to independent program development. ​(Must not exceed 200 words) 

I had many difficulties in my app development but I overcame them. My main problem that I 
had a lot of trouble with was trying to make a variable that included all my images. I tried this 
but unfortunately it didn’t work. I resolved this problem by coding what I wanted the image to 
do individually. Overall it was very tedious but did what I initially wanted it to do. 
2c. ​Capture and paste a program code segment that implements an algorithm (marked with an 
oval​ in ​section 3​) and that is fundamental for your program to achieve its intended purpose. 
This code segment must be an algorithm you developed individually on your own, must include 
two or more algorithms, and must integrate mathematical and/or logical concepts. Describe 
how each algorithm within your selected algorithm functions independently, as well as in 
combination with others, to form a new algorithm that helps to achieve the intended purpose of 
the program. ​(Must not exceed 200 words) 

Written Response 

This code has math and is very important to my code. If the player collects the coin a sound 
triggers and and sends a message to the player congratulating them. It involves math because it 
adds 1 to the total score. 

2d.​ Capture and paste a program code segment that contains an abstraction you developed 
individually on your own (marked with a ​rectangle​ in ​section 3​). This abstraction must 
integrate mathematical and logical concepts. Explain how your abstraction helped manage the 
complexity of your program.​ (Must not exceed 200 words)

var total_score2 = 0; 
var total_score3 = 0;

if (total_score >= 1) { 
console.log("congratulations on collecting a coin!"); 
playSound("sound://category_alerts/airy_bell_notification.mp3"); 
}

onEvent("coin5", "mouseover", function() {

if (total_score >= 1) { 
console.log("congratulations on collecting a coin!"); 
playSound("sound://category_alerts/airy_bell_notification.mp3"); 
} 
hideElement("coin5"); 
}); 
onEvent("coin6", "mouseover", function() { 
total_score3 = total_score3 + 1; 
setText("total_score3", total_score3); 
if (total_score >= 1) { 
playSound("sound://category_alerts/airy_bell_notification.mp3"); 
console.log("congratulations on collecting a coin!"); 
} 
hideElement("coin6"); 
}); 
 
 

Written Response 

This code has mathematical and logical concepts. In the code it says that if the player collects a 
coin it adds 1. After a player collect another coin it adds 1 more. The score starts at but 
gradually goes up after every coin. This helped my program by keeping score of how many the 
coins the player earned in the level. If the player doesn’t have a certain amount of coins they 
cant pass.
