• Using the Makey Makey, I created a controller because that's what I wanted to make from the start of this project.

• During this process, I learned how to use alligator clips and make a controller.

• 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 a global collaborator because I posted my work on my website for the world to see.

• A challenge I overcame on this project was learning how to make the controller effectively. I was able to do it by messing around with the makey makey and the alligator clips.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would change what I made. the physical controller The reason why I would change it is because I was in a time crunch so I had to make the controller on the case it was in.

• Hastings High School Career and Technical Education Program offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, and Marketing.  My project connects to the engineering design CTE program at Hastings High School.  

• My project connects to careers in mechanical engineering because in mechanical .engineering you also might have to use alligator  clips to make an electric current
