Hi Bob, Just worked my way through the playlist. Fantastic! From my point of view it was a great balance of maths, computing and problem solving. You also managed to slide a heap of J primitives and features into the Labs without losing the focus on the problem. I thought the animations were very clean and clear although sometimes I felt they could be a bit slower to help me understand exactly what was going on. For my taste some of the sound effects could also have been a bit more subtle. I liked how you've split the Lab into bite size chunks - and they always left me wanting to do just one more to find out what came next.
Well done!!
