Day 1
I watched tutorials to learn the basics
Day 2
I brainstormed for what I will make
Day 3
I made a game select system.
I completed game 1, Random Number Picker
I completed my final game, or moreso tool, calculator.
Using the Microsoft Micro:Bit, and the computer, I created a game and a calculator because I wanted to see what I could do on a microcomputer.
During this process, I learned how to effectively use variables in code.
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 Computational Thinker because I created a free game and calculator that can be used by many.
A challenge I overcame on this project was figuring out what I could make on the Micro:Bit. I was able to do it by watching tutorials.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the game I created. The reason why I would change it is because it feels very simple and boring.
