Overview

This lesson continues the study of binary representation systems, this time with images. The class is introduced to the concept of splitting images into squares or "pixels," which can then be turned on or off individually to make the entire image. After doing a short set of challenges using the Pixelation Widget, the class makes connections between the system for representing images and the system for representing text they learned in the previous lesson.
