I am working with Brett and Eli
I will need the track for the hot wheel. one or two hot wheels an iPad and computer
My plan is to create a track that will look cool and meet the needs for this project I might make a few just for fun and to know as much possible for this project.
we might send two or more cars down the track and we might make the track different so it might be a different challenge then others
Day 2
Using hot wheels track, I created a big track with loops in it so I can send a car down the track because. We had to create something with the hot wheels track. And make it more unique then others with loop drops and more.
During this process, I learned this is a fun just creating a track and seeing what your car would do if you sent it down . And making modifications to our track. And seeing what new we can make or add to our track.
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 designer because we had to create a track where se could send a car down and it would not fall off and it would be different then others .
A challenge I overcame on this project was making the steepness right cause if we didn't we couldn't send a car down . I was able to do it by making it so the rail wasn't a straight down off and was able to successfully send down a car. instead after this we just made a lower drop down and everything else.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change how many loops we made and the complexity of the track. The reason why I would change it is because it would make it more interesting and we have already done the project so we want to expand the possibility .
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 CTE program at Hastings High School. My project connects to careers in kids toy building or toy tester.
day 3 I uploaded these pictures showing our track that we built. we originally built just one but then we built one that we could send multiple cars. The track with loops cant take multiple cars cause of the loops so we built the one on the stop
day 3 this is a video of us trying to get the right track. We had to rebuild or make modifications to it cause the rail gong off the table was to steep. So every time we sent a car down it would fall off. So we made a small rail goin off a shorter surface.
day 3 we finally made the track so it wasn't as steep. So when we sent a car down the track it would not fall of and would be able to make all the loops. when we tried this before it was so steep or straight down that the car would fall off. Even this track was a little to steep so we made a littler drop off.
