March 15th

this morning in Green Fab
  • we learned about arduinos
  • we learned that once you learn how to make a LED turn on and off you can power almost anything.
  • we played around the arduinos and made them turn on and off for different variations of time and at different speeds.
  • to do this you need to have a software on the computer called Arduino. there you can change anything about about the speed and how bright the LED glows/lights up.
  • With Arduinos you can also power up things such as motors, and other recorded messages.
This afternoon in Green Fab
  • we found out the importance of a planned drawing and how to do so.
  • a planned drawing is a drawing from an over head view.
  • there are different dimensions for a planned drawing such as a running dimension and over all dimension.
  • we had to make a planned drawing of our class-room. the running dimension of our class was hard because of the columns in the walls but the over all dimension was also difficult because of how wide the walls were.
  • we were composed into teams of two people. each team got a measurement tape.
