Daily Log:
Day 1: Today I worked on my older stuff that wasn't turned in.
Day 2: Today I worked on missing work in this class.
Day 3: Today I finished my missing work for this class and the I tried to do the robot where you write you're name.
Day 4: I realized that I didn't want to do the robot drawing thing so I did the catapult one with the Dash.
Day 5: I wasn't here.
Day 6: Today I made my catapult, made a video, and took pictures.
Day 7: Today me and Karmyn worked on the Bolt.
Day 8: Today me and Karmyn made the code for the glitter boom thing that changes colors and we made a video and posted it.
Day 9: Today me and Karmyn edited our video and the pictures then posted it again because it didn't work the first time.
Day 10: Today me and Karmyn took pictures of the code and then posted it on our websites.
Day 11: Today me and Karmyn Finished everything that we had to do and posted the code for the Bolt.
Reflections:
Using a Dash and a Bolt, I created a catapult ( with the Dash ) and a party bomb ( with the Bolt ) because I wanted to see what you could make using robots with stuff around you're house like using Legos for the Dash catapult.
During this process, I learned making robots do things isn't hard depending on what you do, like I wanted to do the I robot drawing thing but I couldn't figure out how to make a name but then after it was to late to do.
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 ( or me and Karmyn ) used a variety of tools and resources to make stuff like a party bomb, and I made meaningful experiences with Karmyn.
A challenge I overcame on this project was trying to figure out how to program the robots to do what I want them to do. I was able to do it by asking a friend and they helped me find out what I had to do.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the projects I did like the Dash and the Party bomb thing. The reason why I would change it is because I wanted to do harder projects but I couldnt do them because I got way behind.
