8P3-Reverse Engineering

Using a laptop and tools, I created a slideshow of the different parts of a laptop because i like taking things apart.

During this process, I learned 9 different parts of a laptop.

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 chose to take apart a laptop.

A challenge I overcame on this project was identifying the parts of the computer. I was able to do it by looking back on my 7th grade STEM project and background knowledge.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change what i took apart. The reason why I would change it is because I want to take apart other things.
