8P5- Coding

Using Minecraft Education Edition I created a house with my agent. The reason for me creating a house is because I wanted to learn how to create something with code and I wanted to learn how to use Minecraft. I also wanted to learn how to use an agent.

During this progress I learned a whole lot coming in as a beginner. One of the most blunt things I learned was to press C on the keyboard to get code to pop up. Next on my list was learning how to command my agent to build things which was very difficult until I figured out how to build it in a tutorial.

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 Empowered learner. This is apparent because I set a goal to learn how to code in minecraft with no background knowledge and I achieved it, now it wasn't very good coding but I still learned how to do it.

A challenge I overcame on this project was learning how to get the code onto my screen. I learned how to code by watching tutorials along with asking people how. Another thing I learned was how to get an agent in which I watched YouTube videos to learn how.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change my code to build a different house. The reason I would do this is because my house right now isn't very good. Another thing I'd change is how high up my house is because I prefer smaller houses.
