6th Grade Survey

MYP Design Cycle 6th Graders Survey

1. How many steps are in the MYP Design Cycle? 4
2. In what step do you plan a solution/product?  plan
3. What is the second step of the Design Cycle? investigate
4. In what step do you evaluate the problem/solution?evaluate
5. What is the third step of the Design Cycle? create

I am planning to show the 6th graders the slide rocket presentation that I have made and then giving them this survey. The 6th graders would have learned what the Design Cycle is if they answer at least 4 out of 5 questions correctly.    

Where I am at

Right now I am checking on my product. I am putting the final effects. I plan to get started on the survey I will be giving to the 6th graders.

Design

I have finished my product. I used sliderocket. The product came out like a power point. I added the information that was neccesary. I am finished. I did not like this design. I will be adding more things next time to  make it better.
I give myself a 6 on my attitudes in technology because today I helped people and I was on task and I finished my design.

Thesis Statement

Slums have an effect on human populations because they could be the cause of diseases, could create antisocial behavior, and they put people's property at risk.

My progress so far.

Today I was working on my project. I was creating my slide show. I am done typing all the information I want to have on my lesson. I was working on getting my slide show ready for the special effects to be added. Next time I come I will be working on adding the special effects.

Design Brief

10. Write a short statement of what you are going to make, why you are going to make it, and for whom you are making it.

I am going to create a short video that will teach the 6th graders exactly what the Design Cycle is.

Formulate a Design Specification

11. What are the requirements for this assignment? 

The requirements for this assignment is to create a product that will teach the 6th graders what the Design cycle is. 

12. What are the limitations you have with this assignment?

The limitations for this assignment is that we do not have enough time and that our product must accomplish our goal.

13. How will you "test" your project? 

I will test this product by asking the 6th graders questions about the Design Cycle. The results of their tests will determine if they learned what the Design Cycle is. To be succesful I will want the 6th graders to get an average of 80 on a quiz that is 5 questions long.
