  1. DESIGN CYCLE Technology Class

  2. What is the design cycle? • is a model/tool to help students to create and evaluate products/solutions in response to challenges. • The MYP technology design cycle consists of four major stages: • Investigate • Plan • Create • Evaluate

  3. investigate • Identify the problem to be solved. • What is the problem?

  4. investigate • develop the design brief. • How do I intend to solve the problem? • formulate and discuss appropriate questions that guide the investigation • identify and acknowledge a range of appropriate sources of information • collect, analyse, select, organize and evaluate information • evaluate the sources of information.

  5. investigate • formulate a design specification: • list the specific requirements that must be met by the product/solution • design tests to evaluate the product/solution against the design specification.

  6. Plan • design the product/solution: • generate several feasible designs that meet the design specification • evaluate the designs against the design specification • select one design and justify its choice.

  7. Plan • plan the product/solution: • construct a plan to create the product/solution that has a series of logical steps • construct a plan to create the product/solution that makes effective use of resources and time • evaluate the plan and justify any modifications to the design.

  8. Create • use appropriate techniques and equipment competently; ensure a safe working environment for themselves and others. • follow the plan to produce the product/solution • evaluate the plan and justify any changes to the plan (when necessary). • create a product/solution of appropriate quality.

  9. Evaluate • Evaluate the product/solution • carry out tests to evaluate the product/solution against the design specification • evaluatethe success of the product/solution in an objective manner based on testing, their own views and the views of the intended user • evaluate the impact of the product/solution on individuals and on society • explain how the product/solution could be improved.

  10. Evaluate • evaluate your use of the design cycle • evaluate your performance at each stage of the design cycle • suggest ways in which your performance could be improved.

  11. Design cycle • Four stages: • Investigate • Identify the problem to be solved. • Develop the design brief. • Formulate a design specification. • Plan • Design the product/solution. • Plan the product/solution. • Create • Use appropriate techniques and equipment competently • Follow the plan • Create a product/solution of appropriate quality. • Evaluate • Evaluate the product/solution • Evaluate your use of the design cycle

  12. quiz • Answer the following questions: • What is the design cycle? • What are the 4 major stages of the design cycle? • Why is the design cycle so important in our technology class?
