Project Ideas Program Tips Meet The Cuckoos Set The Clock • More Clock Projects: • The minute hand advances every second instead of every minute so the clock can be tested and demonstrated. Can you change the code to make the clock keep real time? • How accurate is the cuckoo? • What could account for inaccurate time? • Can you run tests that enable you to predict the time lost or gained each day? • Design your own cuckoo. • Write a cuckoo song and record it. • Edit the code so you can select from many cuckoos.

Project Ideas Program Tips Meet The Cuckoos Set The Clock • Project Tips: • Write a storyline about your project. • Develop all the graphics using Power Point with white backgrounds. • Using Paint or Draw, cut the graphics so they are no bigger than need be. • Before you start coding, think about how you can break the entire project into a number of short tasks. It’s great if these short tasks (or sprites in Scratch) can be reused. The Extreme Cuckoo Clock developed at the Build-It-Yourself Laboratory
