7P8-Makey Makey 

Using Makey Makey, Play-dough iPad, and Pc me and Micah created controller for multiple games. We made a controller for a soccer game, Cookie Clicker, and a shooting game. I made this because I wanted to see what is was like to use playdough for a controller.

During this process, I learned how to use the Makey Makey, and how a ground wire works.

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 Global collaborator because my project is on this website and this website is shared with the world.

A challenge I overcame on this project was Figuring out there is a ground. At the beginning me and Micah would just touch the medal. I was able to do it by learning about the ground wire and what it does..

Given a chance to do this again, I would change the materials that we used, we only used playdough and I want to to use a banana. The reason why I would change it is because I think that we could have used a banana. of a piece  bread or something..

My project connects to careers in engineering because I engineered and made my own controller.
