Projects Quality ?

Hello everyone,
I just want your idea about quality by answering this simple question.

When you say  "this project has good quality", what category do you use to measure it or in simple way "what good quality means to you, in terms of Scratch project? "

I am interested in researching about user perspective on quality of Scratch's Project.

I will  really appreciate any answer.

Cheers,
Ivete

Re: Projects Quality ?

I take into account most everything.  Effort on art (whether they drew their own sprites or used Scratch's pre-made ones, or used a resource), effort on programming (if they took the time to remove glitches, making it smooth, special features or tidbits of programming), creativity, practicality of the layout, and so on.

The only thing I really don't take into account is music, unless the whole purpose of the project is to show a song the user wrote.

Re: Projects Quality ?

I think you will find that it is very difficult to define the word "quality".

If you are interested in searching for a definition, try reading the book Zen, and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.

Basically, it comes down to "I can't define it, but I know it when I see it."
