Reflection
Using a BattleBot, iPad, and Legos I created a video of BattleBots battling because I wanted to see whether me or Max was better at building BattleBots.
During this process, I learned that quality is better than quantity.
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 innovative designers because I created an original battle design for a BattleBot.
A challenge I overcame on this project was the weight of the legos. I was able to do it by using lighter bricks to create my design.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change not having back armor. The reason why I would change it is because it would have given me the victory as I lost because Max's robot was too fast and got around mine.
