8P5 - Microbit

• Using Microbit, I created little motivating messages because I thought it would be fun to have little messages that people can read and enjoy after a long day or to just give them some happiness or motivation.

• During this process, I learned how to work microbit again because I forgot how to use them so I had to grow through and relearn how to use it and how to get the code onto the microbit.

• 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 had to relearn and figure out how to use the microbit and how to get the code onto it.

• A challenge I overcame on this project was having to relearn and figure out what I was supposed to be doing in order to get the project to come together. I was able to do it by trying a bunch of new things and even asking others for help as to what to do.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would add more messages and make new designs that could go along with the messages.. The reason why I would change it is because it would add onto my project and make the messages better and maybe make people feel better to see a little design that went along with the message.

• 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 because I had to code the messages and I had to put the message into the mircobit. CTE program at Hastings High School. My project connects to careers in coding and engineering.
