Chpt 8 Designing With Technologies
- 2. What is design? Pro’s Con’s Design is conceive or fashion in the mind, invent Fosters Creativity It is ubiquitous, word documents, computers we use, music, etc. FIRST Robotics and Lego Design http://www.usfirst .org Identify a need or opportunity Generate a design Plan and make a solution Evaluate and reflect on solution
- 3. Let’s Play Beach Ball…. Computer Aid Software Simulator Software Designing in the Media Musical Composition Software
- 4. Drawing Design Ideas with Computer-Aided Software (CAD) Computer-Aided Software (CAD) was created for designers to be able to create their designs by saving and edit their creations. Development of CAD was to so designers can create orthographic projection drawings which is front-, side-, and top view and isometric drawings. CAD programs play a vital role in drafting for visual aids, by showing the value of design. Disadvantages: Many students are not skilled in converting their concepts into useable drawings.
- 5. Pro/DESKTOP It’s no cost to students, with agreement It has special effect indicators so students will know when changes overlap one another Students grow up using this software to create effect designs were employers hire them and buy the software in which software producers benefit. Pro/DESKTOP allow students to create virtual objects in three “interface” views stages: Design, Drawing and Album, to help with their creative design. http://www.ptc.com/
- 6. Testing Designs and Building Mental Models With Simulation Software Simulation Software can help students build mental models of how the natural world works. -Natural Selection: The transmission of genetic traits to progeny. -Ohm’s Law: behavior of electrons as current flow through electric circuits. -Newtonian Mechanics: Movement of objects under the influence of net forces.
- 7. OK…SO WHAT? Simulations help students build causal links and explanations of how the system works and how elements within the system interact with one another. “ Intermediate Causal Models: when simulations are done well they act as models that bridge the real world with abstract theories and laws of nature.
- 8. What Can this do for me? Benefits -understandable -learnable -transferable Linkable http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= SkvsB_y1un0

- 10. Developing Programming skills While Designing in the Media Arts Software design: impact the capacity to think reflectively, divergently, and metacognitively. Inspired products - “microworlds” “ construction kits” - “newly scratch”
- 11. Scratch A piece software that empowers users to create object-based programs that manipulate digitized video and audio in an environment. http://scratch.mit.edu/
- 12. Designing Music with composition software They do what word processor do for writing. Work with a blank page and collect, revise, and review group of notes while working to finish composition. A pedagogically powerful, elegant, & free piece of software for designing music.
