Planning Questions

Are you working by yourself or in a team?

I am working with my classmate Lucy.

What materials will you need for your project?

I will need  a robot.

What is your plan to create in this project?

Different codes to use for my robot.

What unique qualities will your project have?

We are going to include sound in our codes.

• Using my I-pad and a dash bot, I created coding for my dash robot because I wanted to make my robot move without driving it manually. Petunia mainly did races which I thought was fun because I do races myself. 

• During this process, I learned how to use the dash better than before. When I was in elementary school we only coced the dashes how the teacher told us. I enjoyed having more freedom this time.

• 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 not having time to finish projects. On one of Petunia's races she didn't finish before the end of class. I was able to do it by creating a new course and focusing better the next day.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would change my priorities with robot. The reason why I would change it is because the first day with my robot I mostly just drove it around instead of actually coding it..

• 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.  This is because I coded the robot with no one but my partner.

• My project connects to careers in programming because I coded the robot. I coded the robot starting from scratch after I took simple coding lessons.
