Makey Makey is an electronic tool that allows users to connect "everyday" objects to computer programs. Using a circuit board, alligator clips, and a USB cable, the electronic kit uses closed loop electrical signals to send the computer either a keyboard stroke or mouse click signal. This function allows the Makey Makey to work with any computer program like scratch or webpage that accepts keyboard or mouse click inputs. Students will be able to take ordinary house hold items and turn them into controllers for a game or create a game all together that can be run on a platform like scratch. They will learn how to program the tool, create codes to run the scratch program and create interactive games.

Here are some of the projects created by the students in Makey Makey workshop. Students choose what type of game they wanted to create. They had to write about and have a family member play there game and recorded it. They had to write a report on how they did the project they created a PowerPoint presentation.
