7P8 - Makey Makey

• Using the makey makey, I created a video game controller because i wanted a harder challenge for games.

• During this process, I learned how to hook the cables up and use the playdoh with the cables.

• 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 Empowered Learner because I set my own goals .

• A challenge I overcame on this project was not knowing how to connect the wires. I was able to do it by having Isaiah learn with me.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would change what resources i used. The reason why I would change it is because I only used cardboard and playdoh when i should've used other stuff.

• 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 video game controller making.
