Give instructor top 3 project choice list
My top three project choices are: Chunk Poppit, music project and Apps. I really like the chunk Poppit project because it is really easy. Our group just have to play the game and come up with the strategy to pop the most balloons.

Write problem statement
Look through the existing problem statements. Find something not yet done on the project. Create a problem statement for it. Think of a new subsystem that needs to be built for the project. The goal is something simple, possible, for zero dollars.

Assign Task1
This week task will be to research more information on how arduino works and how to get everything connected. And plan out the whole project week by week so we wont run out of time.

Compare actual work done to Task1
My task 1 was to get all the materials and research on how everything works and have a basic overview of how to connect everything and get the project accomplished. In this week I researched on how to get everything working and make sure that we have all the things we need are there. I also figured out which is the best way to connect the plexiglass to the base.

Week1 Narrative
During this week i just researched on how to connect everything and how to make this project work. I also researched some information about arduino. Here are some links that has more information about arduino: Arduino.cc, Music Code

Week1 Peer Review
Go to each team mates weekly summary wiki page. Read their activities and narrative. Then go the associated discussion page. Say something positive on this page. Try some constructive criticism.

Assign Task2
I am planning to connect the plexiglass with the base and find out more information about arduino so we won't have to do more research later on.

Compare actual work done to Task2
I did exactly what i planned to do last week. First i took of all the glue from the base. Than, I glue the plexiglass to the base. I also did some more research on hall probe and how to connect that to the arduino. I also found out some code about arduino.

Week2 Narrative
During this week i glued the plexiglass to the base. And continue on with some more research. I also looked at older groups information. That really helped me lot with my research. They basically had everything that i need for this project. I did some more research on how to connect hall probe to arduino. Here are some of the websites that i got information from: input/output,Programming,additional information

Assign Task3
My task 3 is to connect base to plexi glass and connect the hall probe to the arduino

Compare actual work done to Task3
I connected the plexi glass to the base. I also did some work with arduino and hall effect probe.

Week3 Narrative
On tuesday i connected the plexi glass to the base. I also did some research on how to do coding to make arduino and hall effect probe work. I didn't really understand on how to make it work. I am hoping to find some more information next week so i can try my best and make our project successful.

Week3 Peer Review
I commented on my teammates page.

Assign Task4
My task 4 is too continue working on the Arduino and do some more research if i don't get how to code to make the hall effect probe work.

Compare actual work done to Task4
During this week I continued to work on arduino. I am really bad with programming. I just don't understand it. I got several programming code from online and than tried it with hall effect probe and it didn't work. I did some more research on how connect hall effect probe to arduino. Program

Week4 Narrative
During this week i did some programming and connected hall effect probe to arduino and tried really hard to program so the hall effect probe would work with arduino.
