Planning Questions
Are you working by yourself or in a team?
I am working by myself.
What materials will you need for your project?
I will need a Sphereo, an iPad.
What is your plan to create in this project?
I will create a obstacle course for the sphereo to go through.
What unique qualities will your project have?
My project will have the robot go up a ramp.
Day 1
Day 1
I answered the planning questions and made my list of 10.

I edited the video and then answered the reflection questions.
Day 2
Day 2
I played around with the Sphereo to learn how to use it.

Day 3
I got the Sphereo to get over the ramps.

Using a Sphereo bolt robot, I created a video of the robot going up a ramp with effects and sounds, because I wanted to use the Shpereo and make it go up a ramp but also film a video of it with some effects. I did this by using a video editing software and adding a filter and sound effects to the video.
A challenge I overcame on this project was the robot not wanting to go over the ramp and fall off of it. I was able to do it by following some instructions and lining up the robot just right and then going at a higher speed so it would be able to make it up..
During this process, I learned how to control a Sphereo and make it drive in a certain direction. I learned how to do this by following some instructions on an app and also by trail and error.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change my goal for this project. The reason why I would change it is that I want to do something more complex and challenging to make this project harder. This would make it a better overall project because I would have more to work towards.
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 knowledge constructor because I constructed knowledge on how to use a Sphereo bolt. I used instructions and learned by trial and error how to control the robot.
