Evaluation for each tech fair project

Rakan:
A video game called tanks was created by Rakan. Rakan has made a video game which no one will pay for and no one can cheat. It is a one versus one mini game. Every time you win a round the screen gets much darker for the winner to make it harder. It is a really fun game and each tank has 200 health. The game is very addicting and he was very creative. Rakan you could have put it in an online mode and more multiplayers. It was good he used the unity software. He should have improved it and he could also helped the environment and I do not think he should go to the techfair.

Christopher & Bhavya:
They have made a robot called a Blinky. The robot is useful because it can carry stuff and move forward.. It is really good for helping in restaurants for carrying the tips and taking desserts to people. It is very useful and they only done it during the weekend. I would not pick them because they could have made it move forwards, sideways and backwards.

Yousief:
He has made a usb powered mini a/c which is very helpful to many people and is very complicated and is very useful in poor countries. I love the way he explained every step. Yousief used it on his XBOX and his computer and it actually works. I would pick him for the tech fair because he has given lots of effort and he has picked a very helpful object/ invention.

Timur:
He has made 2 projects a quad copter and an air freshener. The quad copter consists of many things including a mother board and the propellers and other peices. It can fly high and it can get charged really quickly, It lands properly and it is really safe. It is very fragile and it can very easily break. It can be used for the military for finding missing objects. The air freshener is made up of  a fan from a computer and used a  good smell. I do not think he should go to the tech fair because the stuff were bought and he had copied yousief''s idea.

Dominique & Hannah
They have made a triple purpose car. It is a drone, a transporter, it is also a stand for a camera. It had been made by lego and a car bought, Paper/ cardboard box and a boba clips and a phone. It has a remote control and the charger is in the remote control. The car is fast and it is not as big. I do not think they should go to the tech fair because it looks bought and it is not useful ad kind of broken.

Jasmine & Francesca
They are talking about air vacuums and they have bought a car with an air vacuum and they have made a track. they have created a challenge for the people to ride around the track without hitting any objects and obstacles. You can attach a camera to your car to make it record where ever it is going. i do not think they should go to the tech fair because it does not help the society and they did not create it.

Yahya & Azaan:
They have made a vehicle The wheelie cyclone. The project is a lego made 4 wheeled car with a programming box. It helps society because it moves quick and it looks very nice, If it was for sale many people would have bought it and caught peoples attention. The materials were an NXT box, Lots of lego, Wires, A light sensor, Ultra sonic sensor and an application used to control the car. I think they should go to the tech fair because they have built it from scratch and it looks quite cool and is very attractive and they gave a lot of effort. I think they should go to the tech fair. They had also programmed it.

 Alexandra & Khanda
They have made a movie experience and a projector for the tech fair. It is made of cardboard and it uses a magnifying glass and a phone. It is used to light up the area and show something. It is a mini projector which only works  in a dark area. it is a creative idea and many people can do the same which is the bad part it is not unique and it is very easy to make. I do not think they should go because it is so easy to make and many people can make it very easily. I do not think they gave much effort. They have also made a utencil holding thing which has all materials needed for each lesson.

Armaan & Omar:
Armaan and Omar made a light emotion censor, it is used to light up dark areas and it turns on and is also used as an alarm. It has a cable to connect it to. It made up of many wires and a base for all the censoring. It has detective motion. They have given a lot of effort and I really think their invention is pretty interesting. They have downloaded a software for the coding and made the light censor. I think they should go to the tech fair for thinking outside the box and taking time to make the invention.

Lina & Ban:
They have made a robotic arm out of metals and other materials. Yhey have used programming and it is useful in many ways for example picking items up and taking something from place to place. The way it looks is really nice. Many people would want it and people would love having it as a really good use. I do not think they should go because it was bought and most of it and many people can do the same.

Jonas:
He has made a robot which can move around and it is not very attractive and only moves slowly and not as good as an actual robot. It can get broken really easily and it is not water proof and is not resistant to water and it does not work that well. It can be used for entertainment and other stuff. I do not think he should go to the tech fair because it looks like it has had effort put in that much. He does not want to go any way

Troubles and difficulties during tech fair

Troubles and difficulties:
In the first week of doing the tech fair project I have working very well but because of all the assessments Yousef and I could not meet. We had many Ideas but it was hard for me to keep contact. After that week he had disagreed to work with me for no reason, so I went on looking for another partner and I had finally found a partner which was also looking for one. It was Karim he had appreciated me and from then on we have been working together really well. There was another difficulty which was that Karim and I could not find our materials needed especially a hamster ball for the outer layer of the project. We started checking pet shops and asking some students if they have had a hamster with the ball. So Karim and I decided that we will meet up and he will take the sphero with him and I will show him the stores to check the sizes for the object.
