Reference

• Using an iPad, computer, snake, and the Makey Makey website, I created a Play-Doh controller for snake because snake is a good game and well my teammate and I decided to do a play-doh controller.

• During this process, I learned how to make a controller for the Makey Makey.

• 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 Creative Communicator because I was using a website within a group.

• A challenge I overcame on this project was understanding how to make a play-doh controller work. I was able to do it by researching and focusing on the task ahead.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would change the game. The reason why I would change it is because I wanted to play Pac-Man.
