Make sure you have your video of a project
Using my iPad and a robot, I created a video where the robot jumps because i figured it would be cool for mine and tanner's project.
During this process, I learned how to code a robot to do things.
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 was motivated in myself to figure out an idea for my project and I was curious about how high I could make the bolt jump.
A challenge I overcame on this project was trying to get a good view under the bolt so that in the video you'd see it jump. I was able to do it by putting the video in slo-mo and putting the camera as close as I could to the ground.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the direction the ball was moving so i could keep the camera more stable so the video was easier to watch. The reason why I would change it is because it would look better.
