Planning Questions
Are you working by yourself or in a team?
By myself
What materials will you need for your project?
Just the micro bit, maybe a speaker and the coding classroom/ makecode
What is your plan to create in this project?
Im gonna make a alarm clock and when u shake it its gonna say snooze for like 5 minutes
What unique qualities will your project have?
Im probobly just gonna make it do cool pattern that flashes faces and just cool stuff
List of Good Ideas 10
1.the Alarm clock
2. make it show the time but i can probobly just put that on the alarm clock
3. tic tac toe
4. make a thermometer where it shows the temperature
5. make like multiple timers to remind you of stuff
6. make it play a song
7. a compass or tracker
8. A automatic night light
9. step counter
10. just make it say whatever i want
i coded my first name on the micro bit
Couldnt work this day because of our trip
i added a lot more like arrows spinning and faces just so it looked cool
i added a cool little pattern that will swicth and i tried to add music but no speakers fit
My whole project didn't save and i was sick all week so i decided to improvise and make a low energy foot step tracker
I made my name at the start
Using a microbit and a coding website, I created a low energy footstep tracker so you don't need a battery pack because some people want to track how much theyve ran and this was a really good way to without needing to buy a expensive watch.
During this process, I learned how to overcome challanges when my project wouldnt save and code a microbit.
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 Knowledge constructer because I got feedback and added stuff to the code to make it better and I built my knowledge on it.
A challenge I overcame on this project was restarting my whole thing because my project didn't save. I was able to do it by quickly thinking of something better in the little time i had.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change just maybe if i had more time i would make one with a battery pack. The reason why I would change it is because it would make it higher quality and more acurate when you take a step .
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 Engineering Design CTE program at Hastings High School.
My project connects to careers in Software development because it both codes stuff.
