Tech at Tamaki College

This week for tech we have been programming our m-bots to make the letter 'D'. Before coding, we had a little game of kahoot which involved things to do with the m-bots. After playing kahoot we started coding. It took a lot of time to make it a 'D' but finally we found out what we had to do. All we did was make the m-bot go straight the made a semi circle. This weeks robotics was very interesting and fun and I enjoyed debugging the code.

This week for robotics this week we were working the sensors on the m-bots. In the video above it shows what the m-bot did. On the site mBlock, we coded what the m-bot needs to do in order to make it go in a 8. To make it go in a 8 we used the sensors to follow the line. It successfully went in a 8, it took quite a lot of amount to make it go in a 8. I would say it was quite easy but it took quite a long time to figure it is. This was our practice since we were then going to write our initials. After coding the number 8, we used the sensor to stop it in its place or go backwards. By stopping it we put our hands in front of the m-bot and it either stops or goes backwards.

This week for tech we had robotics with Mr. Krishna. For robotics this week we played around with the m-bots. M-bots are robots that we have to use code to make it do something. Last term we worked on trying to make a rectangle and square, this week we tried to make the m-bots go in a triangle. I tried using other peoples codes to see if they had a similar code to make a triangle. After many tries I finally made a triangle. The codes were similar to the codes that I made with the square and rectangle codes so it wasn't that hard.

This week for tech we were with Mr Krishna, we also played with the m-bots, which are robots that are controlled by coding. For the challenge today, we tried to make our m-bots go in a square. This process was very hard, but then it was challenging and fun at the same time. We used the codes to move our m-bots to make a square. Near the end I partnered up with Sakina, Miiana and Victoria, to test our codes that we made.
