Tech Fair project peer evaluation:
Kimberly and
Ashlesha:
The students in the group were Kimberly and Ashlesha, the name of the
project that they created was the Scrub Bot. This is a moving robot that is
made out of 3 scrubbing brushes, batteries, computer fan, negative and positive
wires and zip ties. The motor was self-made which is hard to accomplish. There
were many positives in this project, one being that it is very helpful not only
for cleaning but also in the field of abstract arts. It is an innovative
project, and as they said is easy to make. Some of the problems in this
project were that finding the materials is difficult, if the materials are
loose they will fall off which will cause the robot to stop working. One of the
biggest problems in this project is that it only works on grass. I think
they should be going into the tech fair as their project uses a lot of
self-made technology and is successful.
Samra and Racha:
The students in this group were Racha and Samra, the name of the project
that they created was called the Nintendo phone. (Copyright) This is a 3D model
made out of cardboard which carries a phone inside and has the same controls as
a DS. I think that this project is not successful as it does not use technology
in any form because it is just a model. They call it 3D though only the outside
Is 3D, at least, the buttons could have been realistic looking. If this project
is actually made some of the benefits will be that it will have a longer
battery life, increase popularity for the DS and easily connect to Wi-Fi. I
disapprove of these students going to the tech fair as their project has no
technology in it.
Romee and
Joudei:
The students were in the group were Romee and Joudei, the name of the
project that they created was the Delivery bot. this is a remote control robot
which is made of a cardboard box on top of a car. This project will help reduce
the cases of back aches that students get while carrying heavy bags as it will
carry them for you. It also had a portable charger in it to charge phones. Some
of the bad things in their project was that they said it will reduce backaches
which are caused by HEAVY bags but later mentioned that this can only carry
light weights. It is also not sturdy and not what they said it would be like in
their promotional video. I do not think this project should be a part of the
tech fair as the technology part of it (charger and car) is not made by the
students, it is only put together by them.
Sofiya and
Sarah:
The students in this project were Sofiya and Sarah, they created a 3D
projector hologram. this was a pyramid shaped see through pyramid that
projected real like looking shapes when it was placed on a hologram video. it
was made using old CD covers and tape. the video was not made by them and
neither was the device which was the biggest con. some of the positives were
that it was very entertaining and created a very strong illusion. they had put
a lot of effort into the project as it was their third try making it though I
think they should not go into the tech fair as they did not do the
technological part, and didn't even attempt to do it.
Lyoma and Ahmed:
The students in this project were Lyoma and ahmed, they created a game called Veteren Warfare. This is a game in which the person playing the game will be doing all of the action, it was made using a software called unreal engine 4. The positives about this project is that it helps enhance creativity, improves hand eye coordination and is professional looking. Though some of the negatives that I noticed was that it was only designed, this means the parts of the game, like the guns and background were already made, which is a good skill but would have been better if it was completely coded by themselves. I think they should go to the tech fair as they used technology well to create something that would help the society.
Emil:
Emil has created a game called honor and conquest, it is a game that will teach little children to read in a fun way. It was made using a software called sploder, the children will be virtually trapped in a medieval world where there are demons kidnapping their family, to get out of the world they have too read and follow instructions that would lead them to read something even if it is in small pieces. the good thing about this project was that it was made to help people, enjoyable and challenging at the same time. the negatives were that it was not coded but designed and also time taking to make. i think he should go to the tech fair as his project is very helpful and uses technology.
