The Design Process • Innovation Academy • Smarter Energy with Ms. Mills • Monday Design Challenge
EMPATHIZEPartner Interview Time • How do we use energy in our everyday lives? • Give examples of different places that use energy and how they use it. • Why would it be important to design a way to monitor energy? • Why would it be important to design a way to decrease energy?

DEFINE • Design a way to monitor and decrease energy consumption.
IDEATE • Headline • Build on the ideas of others • Stay on topic • Encourage WILD IDEAS • Headline • Brainstorming Rules: • Defer judgement • Go for volume • One conversation at a time • Be visual • Headline http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1h5L_0rFz8.
PROTOTYPE • Start rough and rapid • You will have 10 minutes to build before the 1st round of FEEDBACK
TEST • Go back to the student you interviewed • FEEDBACK is the key - • I like... • I like... • I would maybe change...
Prototype Share-out • 1. Did you come up with a way to decrease or monitor energy consumption or both? • 2. How does your design monitor/decrease energy consumption? • 3. What is the BEST feature of your design? • 4. If you had more time, what would you add/change, etc?
Overall Challenge Reflection • What did you learn today? • How did the design process help create innovative thinking? • What did you think about the specific design challenge today? • If you had more time what would you do to your design? • Check blog for key word!

Math Inquiry Question: How do we measure energy? Lesson: Students will use a light apparatus that detects the energy consumption of different types of light bulbs. They will calculate the amount of energy consumption and put the data into a table and convert this into a graph. The student will calculate the lumens per watt which explains the how much energy is produced per watt (energy efficiency).
