7P3 "micro-bit"

Using a micro bit and my computer, I created my name scroll across the screen. As well as making a magic 8 ball, a rock paper scissors game and an animation because I thought creating the different things would be fun and interesting. Starting by creating my name, then the magic 8 ball then the rock paper scissors game and finaly the animation.

During this process, I learned how to create codes on my micro bit. Enabling me to make games and fun animations. Another thing I learned was how to use the if, else if, and else codes to do what I want.

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 being a global collaborator because I created a website page for my micro bit showing off my work with the world. My project also ties to being a Digital Citizen, because didn't copy right anything.

A challenge I overcame on this project was creating the rock paper scissors game. I was able to do it by just trial and error. It was difficult though because at first anything and everything I had tried (at first ) didn't work. eventually I figured out what my error was and was able to finish my game.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change how many things I did. The reason why I would change it is because I think it would be fun (if i had more time) to create more/different things. For example I think it would be fun to create a game .

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  Computer Programming CTE program at Hastings High School. My project also connects to the Digital Multimedia CTE program at Hastings High School.   

My project connects to careers in Software Developer/Engineer because it works with coding. My project also connects to careers in Game Developer because it works with coding as well. Along with problem solving.
