8P2

• Using Tinker Cad, I created a RC boat hull so I could create something different.

• During this process, I learned that I am very passionate about RC stuff.

• The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project is tied to innovation and design because it allows me to design things in the real world.

• A challenge I overcame on this project was learning how to use Tinker Cad. I was able to do it by getting help from friends and the teacher.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would change the whole project. The reason why I would change it is because I have seen some other people's projects and they looked much better and gave me some more ideas.

• Hastings High School Career and Technical Education Program offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, and Marketing.  My project connects to the Digital Multimedia CTE program at Hastings High School.  

• My project connects to careers and engineering design.

Design thinking is a nonlinear, iterative process that teams use to understand users, challenge assumptions, redefine problems, and cerate innovation solutions to prototype and test. It is most useful to tackle ill-defined or unknown problems and involves five phases Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test.
