What I did: Using Microbits I created a name tag that had a song that came with it, once you pressed a button because I thought it would just be a cool project I could do. During this project I learned how to use the Microbit user interference. 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 had to use my past knowledge of coding to figure out how to code my Microbit to say what I told it to. A challenge I overcame during this project was figuring out how to download your code to your Microbit. I was able to do it by going on the Microbit website and searching how to download the code. Given a chance to do this again I would make something other than a name tag. The reason why I would change it is because honestly, it was really easy to do it, I just spent a lot of the time figuring out how to download the code.
