Encoding Experience

     Last week in APCS we were given a fun project. We had to choose something we've experienced in our life and then encode it! We learned how things can be broken down and recreated digitally and then applied it to our project. I chose dog sledding in Alaska as my experience. First I broke the experience down into 5 units. Then I picked one of the units and formed subunits to it. After, I repeated the process again. At this point I had 7 sub-sub units. I decided how each one would be interpreted digitally and then proceeded to convert them digitally. I found the number of bits each sub-sub unit would amount to and why it was so important to include it. That is how we encoded an experience! Below I have a picture of the chart I made as an outline for the project.
