 # Project: Make an Accelerometer Project
 
-For this project, you will work separately or with a friend to design a project that incorporates the micro:bit’s accelerometer capabilities.

 ## Global Goals

+In 2015, world leaders got together and came to agreement on 17 major global issues that need to be addressed. Visit the [Global Goals website](https://www.globalgoals.org)
 
 - Each of the 17 goals (globalgoals.org/goals) is broken down into smaller, more specific goals.
-
 - The webpages for each of these more specific goals describe ways that citizens can take action to help reach that goal.
 
 After exploring the website, consider the following questions:
 
 - Which of the 17 goals interest you the most?
 - Which of the 17 goals do you feel most directly affect you and your community?
-- Why do you think they refer to these global issues as “goals to reach” rather than “problems to solve”? How does describing something as a “goal” differ from calling it a “problem”?

 ## Global Goals and the micro:bit: Do Your :bit!
 
 As we have experienced already, the micro:bit is for making. From tools to games, you have made different projects and products using the micro:bit. The micro:bit can also be used to make a difference!
 
 ### Do Your :bit

 You can use your micro:bit to help reach one of the 17 Global Goals!
 
-Visit the “do your :bit” website ([microbit.org/projects/do-your-bit]()) to find out how other students from around the world have created projects that aim to help reach these goals.

 ### Project Expectations
+
 Follow the design thinking approach and make sure your project meets these specifications: 
 
-- Uses the accelerometer to gather input about the micro:bit’s position and motion in space
+- Uses the accelerometer to gather input about the micro:bit's position and motion in space
 - Uses accelerometer blocks in a way that is integral to the program
 - The program compiles and runs as intended and includes meaningful comments in the code
-- Provide the written Reflection Diary entry (which we’ll talk about after you complete your project)

 ### Shake the Bottle
+
 ![Shake the Bottle Instructions](/test/static/courses/csintro/accelerometer/shake.png)
 
 This game is inspired by a game in the Nintendo Switch game 12Switch. Players take turns holding the micro:bit, which is taped to a bottle. They give it a shake and some bubbles show on the screen. They pass it to the next player, who also gives it a shake. At some point, the bottle will pop and the player left holding the bottle loses.
 
 There are no extra components needed for this game as it just uses the built-in accelerometer to detect when the bottle is shaken.
 
 #### The code
-We start with a variable called ‘pop’ and set its value to 0 at the start. When the first player shakes the micro:bit, it checks if the value of ‘pop’ is greater than 50. If it is over 50, then it displays an asterisk (*) and the game is over. If it is not over 50, it adds a random amount to ‘pop’ between 0 and 4 and shows some bubbles on display.

 ### Zen

 ZEN is a game our students made that was inspired by the Nintendo Switch game 12Switch. The aim of the game is to strike a yoga pose and hold it while keeping the micro:bit completely still. If you wobble, your screen starts to fill up. If it is full, then you are out.

-We start by creating a variable called ‘wobble’ and setting it to 0 at the start. The value of ‘wobble’ is shown as a bar graph on the display. If ‘wobble’ becomes greater than 10, it shows an X and that player is out. If the accelerometer detects a tilt to the right or left exceeding 500 or -500, it adds 1 to your ‘wobble’ value.
