Day-1 played with the robot.
day -2 started on the I robot challenge.
day-3 was in the process of the I robot challenge
day-4 Finished the I robot challenge.
Day-5 started on the dash challenge by building a catapult
Day-6 the catapult failed so we built another one
Day-7 launched the tire successfully.
Day-8 Started the party bomb
Day-9 Worked on the code to the party bomb
Day-10 Didn't completely finish the party bomb but got super close.

What materials will you need for your project?
I Pad, different robots, a partner, Lego, and brain power
What is your plan to create in this project?
I will make robots do different tricks
What unique qualities will your project have?
It will be able to do tricks and cool stuff like drawing my name with a robot and make it sing.
Using robots and an iPad, I created different codes that will make robots do different tricks because I wanted to learn about how different robots and how they work. The robots could do different tricks like catapulting a Lego wheel, blowing up like a bomb cool, and changing different colors. I made the catapult out of Legos.
During this process, I learned that robots are hard and easy to work with. When we were working with the dash's coding we didn't know how to make the code do what it was supposed to do at the same time. Some of the robots were hard to connect to the iPad.
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 Computational Thinker because I overcame problems in the process. The problems I overcame were not making the code right and not being able to connect to the robot.
A challenge I overcame on this project was not making the code exactly right and not being able to connect to the robot. I was able to do it by getting help from Colt. I connected to the I robot by getting on the app I was supposed to get on and pressing the buttons I needed to press.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the amount of time I had to do this. The reason why I would change it is because I would be able to have enough time to do all of the projects. I would also change how big the letters were on the I robot.
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 Tecnical Education CTE program at Hastings High School. My project connects to careers in designing the code for robots that preform surgery.
