  1. Welcome to the Friday Lego Club • Welcome to Our Home: • Tonight… Writing Clear Documentation… • …it’s hard work.

  2. Instructions are Hard • Are You Sure It’s Really Clear • Signs I love… • I feel a lot more like I do now than I did when I first got here • Employees Must Wash Hands • Speed Enforced from Air • Remove pizza from box, place in oven. • Slow Children at Play • We have no trouble understanding these …

  3. Precision • But Machines Need More Specific Instructions • Tires must be round, not kind of round. • Switches should work all the time. • Windows shouldn’t break. • Welds must be perfect. Every time. • How does all this work? • Clear Instructions

  4. For Example . . . • How Hard is This?

  5. What Kind of Talk is That? • Do you speak C, Java, PLC, Basic, HTML, XML? • C else if (PWM_in5 != 0x7f) { slide = 0; } else { slide = 127; } pwm01 = slide; PWM_in2 = (255 - PWM_in2); PWM_in3 = (255 - PWM_in3); pwm01 = Limit_Mix(2000 + PWM_in2 + slide - 127); pwm02 = Limit_Mix(2000 + PWM_in2 - slide + 127); pwm03 = Limit_Mix(2000 - PWM_in3 + slide + 127); pwm04 = Limit_Mix(2000 - PWM_in3 - slide + 383); pwm05 = PWM_in11; //Wheels on frount pwm06 = 255 - PWM_in9; //bar lifting arm (Rreversed) pwm07 = PWM_in8; //ball lifting arm

  6. What Kind of Talk is That? • Do you speak C, Java, PLC, Basic, HTML, XML? • HTML <table border="0" width="100%" id="table7" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td class="NavH"><a href="../tbh/index.htm">Home</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <img border="0" src="../images/Pixels/PixelTransparent.gif" width="1" height="8"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="../tbh/story.htm"> <img border="0" src="../images/tbh/Templates/TBHNavigation01.gif" width="119" height="54" id="img1" alt="The Story of the Film" onmouseout="FP_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="FP_swapImg(1,1,/*id*/'img1',/*url*/'../images/tbh/Templates/TBHNavigation01m.gif')"></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="../tbh/making.htm"> <img border="0" src="../images/tbh/Templates/TBHNavigation02.gif" width="119" height="54" id="img2" alt="The Making of the Film" onmouseout="FP_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="FP_swapImg(1,1,/*id*/'img2',/*url*/'../images/tbh/Templates/TBHNavigation02m.gif')"></a></td> </tr>

  9. Or How Do I Do this? • Writing Good Instructions is Hard Work

  10. Input model Or How Do I Do this? • Good Instructions Require Good Illustrations

  11. Or How Do I Do this? • Good Instructions Requires Good Illustrations

  12. Or How Do I Do this? • Good Instructions Requires Good Illustrations

  13. Or this... • Good Instructions Requires Good Illustrations

  14. Try It • Create an Invention and Document It • First: You’ll get two bags of identical products

  15. Try It • Create an Invention and Document It • Next: You’ll get a set of blank instruction sheets

  16. Try It • Your Tools… • Your Brain! • A Pencil… • Creativity….

  17. Try It • Create an Invention and Document It • Next: Name Your Invention (or when you’re done)

  18. Try It • Create an Invention and Document It • Next: Build your project and write out the steps. Make drawings where needed. Put a red brick on a blue brick and turn it over…

  19. Try It • Build for 30-40 minutes. • After you’ve built your machine we will take your model and hide it. • You will then trade with another group. • That group will then try to build your model from your instructions. • We will then unveil the original models and compare them to what you’ve built.

  20. Try It • Did you build • This?

  21. Try It • Did you build • Or This?
