7P8 Makey Makey

Using a makey makey, my computer and my iPad, I created A game controller because I wanted to see if i could make my own controller and not have to use the keyboard.

During this process, I learned How a makey makey board works.

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 Global collaborator because I will be sharing my project with the world.

A challenge I overcame on this project was actually making it work. I was able to do it by reading the instructions I found on their website.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change the amount of people i worked with. The reason why I would change it is because I think that as a group we would have gotten a lot more done.

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 university engineer design because they also make changes to make something work more efficiently.
