Using Scratch on a Computer, I created a Calculator because it can be helpful for quick math

During this process, I learned how to program using Scratch, and how variables work 

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 these because because I'm an empowered learner, because I knew what I wanted to do, and I'm a digital citizen, because I did not directly copy anyone. I'm a knowledge constructor because I made sure it I knew what to do, and how to make it work. I'm a innovative designer, because I made something original and I'm a computational thinker, because I used tech to find ideas, and how to make stuff.  I published, and the work is public, which also is why I'm a global collaborator.

A challenge I overcame on this project was having issues or not knowing how to make something work. I overcame it by looking at some tutorials, and continuing to keep trying new solutions   

Given a chance to do this again, I would do something more complex, or make it do more operations, because I then it could be more helpful

Hastings High School Career and Technical Education Program offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, Marketing.  My project connects to the Computer Programming CTE program at Hastings High School.  My project connects to careers in Software Developers, and Web Developers, because I developed software using programming.
