We worked on the Nintendo Controller
We made the baseball video and the Mario video.
We worked on the outer design of the controller
We finished making the controller
We finished up the details on the Websites.
Are you working by yourself or in a team?
In a team
What materials will you need for your project?
Cardboard, Aluminum foil, Makey Makey, and Play Doh
What is your plan to create in this project?
A gaming controller
What unique qualities will your project have?
I will be able to use all of the arrows, the space button, the mouse buttons, and some of the letters
Using Makey Makey, We created 2 different Nintendo controllers because we thought it would be a fun and easy thing to make. We also made it because we wanted and creative way to play games.
During this process, I learned Makey Makey is easy to work with. I also learned that teamwork doesn't always help because, it is annoying to share different ideas
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 we had multiple problems including not having the Makey Makey work. We also had he problem of having to restart the entire design for the controller.
A challenge I overcame on this project was not having the Makey Makey work. I was able to do it by using the smaller cord included in the packet. Another challenge we overcame was messing up the design of the controller. I was able to do it by restarting the entire design for the controller.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the amount of effort I put into the design of the controller. The reason why I would change it is because the design is very flat and basic. I would also make the controller smaller and more compact.
