Product: Bumblebee a voice controlled robot
What was the project about?
The project was a voice controlled robot called bumblebee. They made the robot using pieces (kits) and then to make the robot look nice they added a colourful body. They also made a video to advertise their product which was very nice. The app which you can give the commands from using your voice was not created by them, they used it. The commands you can tell the robot to complete were right left forward and backward.
What were the positive things I liked about their product?
For their product I liked many things that included the outer body that they made for the robot as it looks nice and very creative. I also really liked the fact that it was voice controlled as it is kind of a new feature that is very nice. Finally I liked the project itself as I saw that they put effort to complete the robot.
Is their any feedback I can give their group?
Although the product was very nice I can still give them some feedback, for example they can try giving the robot more functions other than the usual ones. They can also make the connection or whatever they connect the voice controlled app with the robot stronger as on the day they had to try several times before the robot got the message and started completing the action - function demanded.
Do I think the product deserves to be in the tech fair?
I liked their product but I don't really think it should be chosen as on the exhibition day it will be very noisy which will cause there product not to work.

What was the project about ?
The product was something like a robot called the hydraulic arm. It is made of pieces of cardboard, syringes, a hose, a wooden stick, screws and a wire. They made a very nice video that explained more about their product. There product has an arm that should be able to lift some things. I liked their product as I saw they put lots of effort.
What are the positives about their product?
For their product I liked some things that included:
For me it was a new creation that I didn't see a lot of before. The design itself looked nice, tidy and creative.
Is their any feedback I can give their group ?
It was nice but their is some feedback I can give, their product didn't have a lot of technology. They can also be more creative in closing the product.
Do I think the product deserves to be in the tech fair ?
I don't think it should be chosen as it didn't have a lot of technology and doesn't have many functions.

Product: Schematics robot and lamp
They made two products but only presented one as the other didn't work. Their product was made of lots of technology and complicated. I liked the fact that they tried very hard to complete and learned a lot about the use of computers and the ways to function on a computer or a software. Next time they can focus an only one product so they can finish it perfectly and maybe think of a less complicated product so that they can complete it without many problems. I don't think they should be in the tech fair as they didn't complete all their products/projects.

Product: CD 3D project
What was the product about?
It was making/designing a dress/shirt with CD's. They made their product using CD's, a shirt, 3 doodler pen, hot glue gun and scissors. They made a pretty nice video to advertise and inform people about their product.
What are the positive about their product?
I really liked their product as personally it was a new creative product that I've never seen before. I barely saw any product that combined CD art and 3 doodlers. The shirt looked very colorful in the end and it was very bright and shiny. Their product was very nice and I think they worked together very well.
Is their any feedback I can give their group ?
I really like it but maybe they can use a little bit more technology in their product. They can also make more copies of their product ( more than one shirt/ example ).
Do I think they deserve to be in tech fair?
I do think they should be in tech fair as their product is new and very creative.

Product: A video to raise awareness about social media.
What was the product about?
They made a video to raise awareness on social media. It was edited using Powtoon.
What are the positives about their product?
The video had lots of information about the effects of social media and it was also very neat
The PowerPoint had lots of information about their product.
Is their any feedback I can give their group ?
They can add music and sound to the video, they can also add more I found and make a website or another poster.
Do I think the product deserves to be in the tech fair ?
I don't think the product deserves to be in the tech fair as it is very simple and is not attractive. I also think they didn't put lots of effort as it wasn't very clear and they even had to edit something on the day of the presentation which meant that they are not very organised and didn't have many eating to complete and check their product.

Product: Larger model of the Polaroid camera
What was the project about ?
Hey made a larger version of the Polaroid camera and they also made a website about their product. I can see that they have researched a lot about the different parts of a Polaroid camera.
What are the positives about their product ?
They worked together very well and had great communication and collaboration together. They divided the roles very well and caused he project to be very good. They had many sources to explain how the project work and what it's about. The promo video was funny.
Is their any feedback I can give their group ?
They can improve their promo video as personally it didn't explain a lot and they were talking too fast in the video . They could also divide them selves a little bit instead of being 4 in the group.
Do I think the product deserves to be in the tech fair ?
I don't think it should be chosen as I think they didn't have to put so much effort because they were 4 in a group which meant that everyone will have a very small task/role to complete.

Product: A game
What is their product about?
They have created a game using a website called sploder. There game has five packs each with five levels.
What are the positives about their product?
I liked lots of stuff about their product. These included the following stuff: The fact that it was a fun , attracting and addicting game. It's a very fun game and it's pretty simple to use as there are not many rules.
Is their any feedback I can give their group?
Next time they can make it work on a phone too as this time it can only be played on a computer. They can also give instructions in the beginning (how to move) so that anyone can understand the game quickly and start enjoying it from the beginning.
Do I think the product deserves to be in the tech fair?
I do think it should as personally I enjoyed the game from the first I tried it. I found it very attractive and fun which can make people in tech fair day enjoy their presentation. I think that only one of the 2 groups that did games using sploder should go in the tech fair as both of them are very similar.

She made a car out of recycled material.She had a fan made of recycled materials and placed it in the back which helped the car move forward

She could've made the car move faster as now it is moving really slowly. She could've made the PowerPoint a bit shorter and more interesting.

I think she shouldn't as I believe her product is simple and doesn't have a lot of technology and thus whole topic is about technology projects.

What are the positives about their product?
There game is very new to me which made it stand out. It was very unique for me and I enjoyed watching it a lot.
Is their any feedback I can give their group?
They could've published the game or shared it so that the class can see it from the big projector to make it more clear. They can speak louder and they can improve the graphics.
Do I think the product deserves to be in the tech fair?
I don't think they deserve to be in the tech fair as they didn't really have a lot of knowledge about their product and had very low voices.
