Reflection.
Using a dell optiplex, I created a project where I repair the generic dell pc. because it sounded cool and fun to take apart a pc and fix it. I also filmed the process with Weston's iPad using the camera app.
During this process, I learned how to build a pc better. Before I was new to building pc but now I am better than I was previously. I have now improved on myself in this project.
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 Constructor because we had a issue with the hard drive and didn't know what was wrong with it but a google search later we found out it was missing the hard drive.
A challenge I overcame on this project was installing the power supply . I was able to do it by pushing down on the power supply and it then locked into place.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the video we put on our website. The reason why I would change it is because it was very low quality and was aimed at my iPad running iMovie. instead of having a video I was proud of I had a low quality mess. I am not very happy about the end result. We could've done better if the iPad would let us upload the videos to google drive.
