Lifeskills 9-21
- Your Churchill registration forms need to be back to Mr. Jones or me by Monday, March 3.
Robotics 8A
- Today we continued exploring the wonderful world of HTML. On Monday, March 3 you will have time to ask me any questions that you may have regarding the Intro to HTML tutorials (1-13) and then you will have a quiz on the information covered.
Robotics 8B
- Wow, super impressed with the work that occurred today even though a number of you were away. We continued to work on the NXT Checklists and many of you had started to work on using the sensors.
Robotics 8C
- Please make sure that your first sketchup assignment is handed in by midnight. If you forget how to do this please check the last classes post.
- For the next assignment I have asked you to work on designing and creating something that could be considered useful. The three options I gave you, if you do not want to come up with your own, are creating a cable organization tool for the laptop carts; a device that will hold up a phone or a tablet; or something that will stop you from losing your pen or pencil. You will have more time to work on this next class.
Robotics 9A
- Yet another short class, so we spent the time trying to finish building our racing robots. On Monday’s class you will have a short amount of time to make any finishing changes and then we will be racing and moving on.
- Many of you have not finish the Robots in Our World activity. Please make sure you do so soon so that I can assess this.
Robotics 9B
- I think a number of you were overwhelmed today with what I was asking you to do in Scratch. Please remember that you can also work on Scratch at home as it is web based so it will work on both Mac and PC computers.
- You will have more time next class so don’t stress too much over this. Remember that you need to ask for help or clarification because it is your learning.
Robotics 9C
- We spent close to an hour trying to finish our racing robots. The quality of the builds ranged from impressive to something that really did not go anywhere. However, I hope that everyone had a chance to explore some of the parts and also how to build using the Mindstorms. The focus was on design, and the designs did vary a fair amount which was neat to see.
- For next class please finish the appraisal / reflection for this. I have shared the file with all of you in Google Drive. Please remember that the questions at the bottom of the second page are just there to guide your thoughts.
- Most of you will likely do this as a paragraph response but remember feel free to respond to this and share your learning in any way that you like.
- If you are handing something in digitally then please put it in your Google Drive folder, otherwise bring it to class and hand it in the bin.
- Your folder should be named as follows (your name – 9B). Remember to create this go into Google Drive, click on “Create” and then “Folder”. Once you have made this please share it with me by right clicking on the folder, and then “Share” You will add my email address, [email protected], under invite, and please give me editing privileges.
