Graphical Applications
 
The Hero of Time To begin the second quarter of the 2012-2013 school year, my students had an assignment to develop a Java computer program to create an image of their choice.  They used basic geometric shapes such as rectangles, ellipses, lines, and polygons to construct these graphical applications. 
 
 
There were nearly 70 entrants in the contest.  The following are the top 15 winners (as voted by my students):
