Daily Log:
Day 1: We started with the catapult but we didn’t have enough time
Day 2: Built a better catapult and coded it to throw a ball
Day 3: Coded with Spark
Day 4: Made part of the robot video
Day 5: Thought of more ideas and try them
Day 6: Worked on the website more
Day 7: Worked on the video more
Day 8: Worked on Dash
Day 9: Work more on the website and did some work on the marker bot
Day 10: Added all of the details
Dash
Sphero Mini
iRobot
Using Dash, bolt, Sphero Mini, and iRobot, I made code for all of these robots because the project requires having all of the robots for a full grade.
During this process, I learned how to code various types of robots.
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 Digital Citizen because I used separate apps to make the task that was needed.
A challenge I overcame on this project was not knowing the information to code. I was able to do it by taking time and seeing what different code does.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change is the way we coded Dash. The reason why I would change it is that I didn't like how the catapult didn't throw the ball as expected.
