Reflection: 
Using the Dash Robot was such a fun experience! I downloaded the Blockly app to use with it
and code different sequences. I had the Dash robot do most of the actions and tried to make one where
Dash acts as a police officer. I really liked how many different actions Dash could do, and there is an
unlimited amount of coding sequences. This would be such a great tool to use with students when
learning to code.
The affordances of this technology are how well it completes the actions and links with the iPad,
the creativity that can be shown through it, how it teaches students to code, and the many different
actions Dash can do. The 21st century skill that Dash can be acquainted with is the Innovative Designer.
This technology lets students test their ideas by using a design process and they can be problem solvers
as well. The Dash Robot was such a fun tool to try out and I would definitely like to use it in the
classroom with students one day!
