• Using a Micro:Bit v1, I created multiple different creations because using my computer I was able to design and find out whether a code needed to be fixed or if it was fine.

• During this process, I learned how to program a Micro:Bit and use the controls on the sides of one, and I learned the difference between "On start" and "Forever" code blocks.

• The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project is tied to Knowledge Constructor because when I started the Micro:Bit I had no idea what to do and how it worked, but as time passed I learned how and got better and better.

• A challenge I overcame on this project was having to come up with ideas day after day just to keep up with the project and another one was not having enough light squared on the grid to make all of my ideas. I was able to do it by changing all of my ideas and having some help from fellow classmates and changing the design of the project so it would work on the smaller grids.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would change the amount of resources we were given so I could make the different things that can be made with the Micro:Bit. The reason why I would change it is because a lot of my projects had the same coding for the way it worked and because it would open so many more ideas.

• Hastings High School Career and Technical Education Program offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, and Marketing.  My project connects to the Computer Programming CTE program at Hastings High School.  

• My project connects to careers in computer programming because, in the process of making my projects, I was using coding to create the end result and improve by building off of that code or even restarting a code.

• Are you working by yourself or in a team?

I worked by myself

• What materials will you need for your project?

My computer, Micro Bit V1

• What is your plan to create in this project?

Different things with the micro bit

• What unique qualities will your project have?

The amount  of projects I made and  the things being visible on the screen and being able to code what I am going to make
