7p8 makey-makey

Using makey makey, I created a controller for games because I wanted to see how hard it was to play games with a playdough controller. I used multiple setups to make all the controllers. Also learned a lot along the way.

During this process, I learned how to make a playdough controllers for multiple games and all the games needed to have different setup for the controller. It was difficult but I found a tutorial on a website for makey makey. Then I made all of them work.

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 i used my knowledge to make a controller with makey makey and playdough_.i made all of the setups using my knowledge and the website. There were multiple things I could've done but I chose to make a controller instead.

A challenge I overcame on this project was trying to play game with a makey makey. I was able to do it by help from fellow classmates. Also I used the website for pointers.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change timeframe. The reason why I would change it is because i would have like to spend more time on it. And it would give me more knowledge on makey makeys.
