This was my final product. This was the last step to finishing my capstone! As I said in my last post, I started to work on it when I was more focused on my main inquiry answer. I had the choice to do an Ignite, IMovie or TEDTalk. I chose a TED because I wanted to include these robots named Dash and Dot. I wanted to use these robots to demonstrate how people code the robots to, for example, move forward, or turn right 90%, or something like that. These robots are coded like scratch, but in my opinion, it’s easier. I made a track out of paper and tape, and coded Dash to go around the “neighborhood” and explore. He will also meet some “friends.” I am going to talk a little about space and underwater robots, then I am going to demonstrate with dash and dot. I practiced a few times in front of my class, and they gave me feedback, I fixed what they said I should do, especially what Mrs Edwards said. When I finished updating everything, Michael H helped me practice my brand new TED, and when I went up, I was ready. When I finished, my classmates just said I had to be a little more enthusiastic. But they thought it was good, and all I have to do now is present in front of our parents. Well, wish me luck!
This is my slideshow:
Jordan, you’ve worked hard on your TED Talk and it shows. You have great content, your slides look amazing, and the last time you practiced your presentation you were smiling and able to “ad lib” for what Dash does on the track. Your classmates love your presentation and I know your audiences on Monday and Tuesday will, too! Way to go, Jordan!
