Using a button maker, tablet, and a printer, I created buttons that I liked because I thought it would be cool to make some buttons. Another reason is I thought they would look cool on my wall because I have a wall in my room that is covered in posters and other random stuff and I thought it would look cool up with all of my other posters and stuff on my wall.

During this process, I learned that it is not very hard to make a button. I thought it was gonna be this long process when really it wasn't. Another thing I learned is that the paper can't be too big or the plastic won't stick. One more thing I learned was that you don't have to push down very hard for it to work which I thought you would have to push it down pretty hard.

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 Innovative Designer because I am learning from my mistakes like I accidently put the plastic sheet on wrong and so I was off the side a little so it didn't go on right.

A challenge I overcame on this project was the plastic part that you have to put over the paper so the button will stay together wouldn't stay and the whole thing would fall apart. I was able to do it by grabbing a new piece of plastic and would make sure it was in line with the maker and wasn't going off the edge. Another thing I did to fix it was press down. harder. 

Given a chance to do this again, I would change the pictures that would go in the button maker. The reason why I would change it is because the pictures, are pictures I like but they aren't very personalized. If I were to d this again I would bring in one of my one pictures. I could've done that for this project but I kept on forgetting to bring one into school.

My project connects to careers in Manufacturing because I am making buttons by putting them together. A career I could do that connects manufacturing is assemblers which construct products and the parts that go into them. Another job that connects to manufacturing is quality control which is wear they test raw products to make sure they are good. There salary is 46.530.
