It heroes - Micro-bit Reflection

IT Heroes - a Micro bit

\13/06/2018

Today in IT heroes, Sam and I continued in making our soccer field micro bit activity. While sam started with making the template for the other goal I coded the micro-bits and we started thinking about how we are going to do the circuits  and how we are going to make it so that the ball will have a big enough impact to hit the net(piece of cardboard) which will hit the back of the goal and trigger the scoreboard to change. To complete our soccer field we will just need to complete the circuit part of it and figure out where to put the crocodile clips. We will need to get a buzzer and some tin foil and once we have those we will be able to complete the activity and have a fully functional micro-bit soccer field.

Micro Bit Challenge - Coding

This is my code for my micro bit point system for my micro bit football activity,
The purpose of the Forever block is for the code to go on forever, it is the forever loop so the code will repeat itself everytime its triggered so in this case, the  game can go to whatever score you desire, the forever block is great for when you want the code to repeat itself or for it to work forever.

One skill I think I have learned was how to work a buzzer, for Sams and I's football field we needed the buzzer to work whenever a point is scored so I figured out how to set up the wires properly so the goals will work, now I just need to figure out how to arrange the wires so they still work properly and will not get in the way of the game.

Itheroes - Mrs Hylands Questions

Mrs. Hylands Questions

Name one specific thing about your learning at campion college that really engages you. 

I like working with my friends. Why? I like working with my friends in class and if working in groups I like working with friends or people I at least know or talk to because if I'm put with someone I don't know I don't work very well or talk very much. 

How do you prefer to learn something new? 

Through the teacher teaching us up front, like them explaining it to the class with information (like slides or images or videos about the subject) 

If you could change anything about how the school is organized to support your learning what would it be? 

Actually being more organized with everything because there have been so many things that have not been organized. 

Why would you change it? 

So that the learning and activities and everything will be organized beforehand and be ready for us. 

How would you change it? 

Make people become organized but I'm just a student I can't change anything… 

How important to you is it to know why you are learning something? 

Not very important… 

How important to you is it to know how you are assessed? 

Very I guess? I like to know how I have done.

A classroom that's not like completely quiet because it's hard to concentrate when it's like dead quiet
