In this project I'm working again with Brennan (or was supposed to but he was sick) to make a game controller using makey makey and tin foil. this projects unique qualities is that I get to play tank trouble by hooking myself up to a computer making a human controller.

Using makey makeys, I created a human powered controller because it sounded interesting and like an original project idea.

During this process, I learned more about basic circuits and how conductive my arm is.

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 had to design a way to comfortably make myself a wire.

A challenge I overcame on this project was making sure all the wires didn't cross. I was able to do it by spreading the wires out.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change how I put it together by maybe adding something to put all the wires in. The reason why I would change it is because the controller was hard to use because of how hard it was to use the thing.
