For this project, I learned circuit-building basics. First, I uploaded a program to my red-board. Second, I controlled LEDs with digital outputs. Third, I read sensors with analog inputs. I applied computational thinking skills like algorithm design by following step-by-step instructions from the SparkFun Inventor's Kit Guide on how to make the LEDs successfully blinked.

Light 2
Light 3
Light 4
The most rewarding part of this assignment was the time when the led successfully blinked. I feel really satisfied to know that I was putting my electronic components in the correct location, especially if I was successful during my first try. I believe I learned a lot valuable lessons from this assignment as I really need to be patient in putting the electronic components piece by piece. I was sure that this assignment made a valuable experience that I might not get elsewhere. I felt like I did something useful and important in this individual project. In the future, I might be able to fix my LED light by myself.
