Cardboard project

my project was pretty hard to make because you have to find what you are going to make first than you have to make it.  The task was to make a project out of just cardboard. Me and my partner used are tablet to get ideas too.

This is my and my partners project which  is a computer. it has every part of a computer like a battery, fans, and power buttons. it doesn't have a front plat soo that you can see the insides.

My partner showed me how to make and wire a computer which if I ever wanted a computer I know how.  it is a good skill  to have  so that  in some jobs that is a skill to know.  Not everybody know how to make a computer.   

For this project we were a empowered learner by finding what we were going to on are tablet to look up lots of images of the parts of a computer.  a empowered learner makes a goal or something to make and goes out to make it happen.  That's what me and my partner did.                                               

Trying to understand how to make a computer was hard and challenging. all cords can be confusing where to put them and you have to have the right  graphic card.  but I figured out how to make a computer. 

something I would change is the power buttons. because it is big and lumpy.  it doesn't look like a power button and I could of made it look more round

• Using cardboard, me and I created a cardboard computer because it sounded really fun to make as are project.

• During this process, I learned how to make a full computer.

• 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 an empowered learner because we said that we were going to make a computer and we went and made it.

• A challenge I overcame on this project was trying to learn how to make computer sense i did not know how. I was able to do it by listening to my partner because he knew how to make a computer.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change is the power button. The reason why I would change it is because it was too lumpy and fat.
