Reflections and Paragraph:
Using Makey Makey, tinfoil, and a computer I created tinfoil buttons that work when you click them because I wanted to make a controller but I had limited options.
During this process, I learned how to make a controller out of everyday items by watching tutorials and trying stuff by myself.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Global Collaborator because everything I have done with this project is being shared with the entire world.
A challenge I overcame on this project was getting the tinfoil buttons to work, I was able to do it by watching a tutorial and trying it on my own until it worked.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change what my the buttons were actually supposed to be. The reason why I would change it is because I was rushing to make them and they were just not very nice looking overall.

My project connects to the Engineering Design CTE program at Hastings High School.
My project connects to careers in controller manufacturing because I made a customized controller that works.
Using Makey Makey, tinfoil, and a computer, I created tinfoil buttons that function as a controller. I designed this because I had limited options for building a controller out of everyday objects. The tinfoil buttons work by completing circuits when clicked, allowing interaction with the computer. During this process, I learned how to create a controller using everyday items by watching tutorials and experimenting on my own. Through trial and error, I gained a better understanding of how to build custom devices. Out of the 7 standards my project connects to Global Collaborator because everything I’ve done is being shared across the Earth by using accessible tools and online resources. A challenge I overcame in this project was getting the tinfoil buttons to work. I was able to solve my problem by watching a tutorial and then experimenting on my own until I figured it out. If I had the chance to do this again, I would change the design of the buttons. I rushed through the process, and the buttons weren't what I actually wanted them to be. My project connects to the Engineering Design CTE program at Hastings High School by applying problem-solving and design principles. My project connects to careers in controller manufacturing because I designed and built a customized controller that functions effectively.
