8P9- makey makey

Using MakeyMakey, I created A controller made of play dough that is connected to the computer because I wanted to see how the cords connect and transfer energy.

During this process, I learned the the electricity travels through the play dough and if I don't use the play dough and if i just touch it then it doesn't work.

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 Empower learner Empowered learner because i got to pick what i could make with the Makey Makey

A challenge I overcame on this project was wire management. I was able to do it by getting the best playdough and making a better connection to the cords.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change how the wires where places because they were everywhere and hard to controller and know which one would go to each.
