Well, I was thinking just that.
Here's a rock-wall building app that spits out a rock wall with the click of a
button...
(no, wait, that's so 2000's)
with the tap of a screen...
(no, wait, that's so 2010's)
with as request to Alexa...
(although 'they' probably have your whole psycho-social profile stored in the
cloud and know what your professor wants already ...

.... and so what have you really learned / accomplished.

In any event, the parameters of the project need to be communicated more clearly
