Using Legos and an iPad, I created a healthy life choice as part of my project. By combining these tools, I was able to design and demonstrate a concept that promotes well-being, emphasizing the importance of making positive decisions for one's health. This project allowed me to creatively explore ways to represent and encourage healthy habits through interactive technology and hands-on building with Legos.

During this process, I learned how to create a stop motion animation. This involved capturing a series of individual frames by taking pictures of objects or scenes in small incremental movements. By putting these frames together in sequence, I was able to produce the illusion of motion. It was a valuable learning experience that helped me develop new skills in both photography and animation, allowing me to see how small changes can come together to tell a story.

The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to the Digital Citizen standard because I made sure to respect copyright laws and avoid using any material without permission. By doing this, I ensured that my work was ethical and responsible, demonstrating my understanding of digital rights and the importance of creating original content in a digital environment.

A challenge I overcame during this project was that my partner was absent, and I had to complete the work on my own. Despite this setback, I was able to stay productive and focused on the task at hand. By managing my time effectively and staying organized, I was able to accomplish everything that needed to be done, ensuring the project was completed successfully.

Given the chance to do this again, I would change the way my partner and I worked together. When my partner was present, we struggled to collaborate effectively, and I believe we could have worked better as a team. If we had communicated more clearly and divided tasks more efficiently, I think our project would have turned out smoother and more successful. The experience showed me the importance of teamwork and how much it can improve the overall process.

Hastings High School's Career and Technical Education Program offers a wide range of courses, including Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, and Marketing. My project is connected to the Engineering Design CTE program at Hastings High School, as it involved using design and problem-solving skills to create a functional and innovative solution. Through this project, I was able to apply the concepts and techniques learned in the Engineering Design program, making it a valuable hands-on experience in the field.

My project connects to careers in construction because I designed and engineered the Legos used in the project. By carefully planning and building with Legos, I applied concepts similar to those used in construction, such as structural design, precision, and problem-solving. This experience allowed me to explore the practical aspects of engineering and construction, as I worked to create a stable and functional model, much like what would be required in real-world construction projects.
