Using a Makey-Makey and Play-doh, I created a controller to play Funky Night Friday (FNF) because I wanted to do something as last year but know make it better. I made this controller for the Tryhard people that spend their whole day playing videogames and they are looking for something challenging or something new to try. Also this controller is really hard to use because sometimes it's hard to make it work even if you are holding the cable connected to the bottom part of the Makey-Makey.
During this process, I learned that when you make something by second time it will be easier because you already know how to make it work. I also learned that when you do something by second time you do it faster than last time because you already have the knowledge of it and it makes it easier to make again. When I made this controller by second time it just took me 10 minutes to make but last year it took me 2 days because I had to search for the information of how to make work the Makey-makey.
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 Global Collaborator because I'm sharing my project with the world and they can see everything I post on it. Also they can use my website as a way to help themselves when they are making similar project as mine.
A challenge I overcame on this project was trying to write paragraphs for my website. I was able to do it by looking back in my old projects and taking information from them. Trying to write paragraphs for my website was hard for me because this was the first time I'm trying to write the paragraphs. Also I didn't find much information for my website so I started looking for information in the student's work from last year so I can have an idea of how I'm gonna do my website.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the video of my projects. The reason why I would change it is because I think last year I made the same video as I did this year. I think I was able to use another videogame besides FNF but when I was making the controller and I tried to use it in other videogames I couldn't so that's why I use the controller to play FNF again.
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. I created a controller that you can use to play videogames as is FNF technically every game where you can use the controller(Makey-Makey).
My project connects to careers in Game designer because with the Makey-Makey you are making an alternative way to play videogames. I also made a new controller to play videogames but just games where you can use the controller. The controller makes the videogame harder by having smaller pieces than a normal controller and by making it hard to use.
