- 4. WHAT IS DESIGN? • Design means exploring ways to find solutions to problems to make the world a better place. • Design links new ideas, imagination and creativity. • Design is a process. • Design requires teamwork. • Design is using a range of tools, materials, skills and techniques to explore, design and create products and systems. • Design involves taking responsibility for our community and our planet.
- 5. WHAT IS MYP DESIGN? MYP Design is one of the 8 subject groups in the IB MYP programme.
- 6. WHAT IS THE DESIGN CYCLE? A designer always begins with a design problem or opportunity. Every designer may approach a design problem or opportunity in a different way. The Design Cycle model represents how designers develop products that are solutions to problems. It is the process.
- 7. DESIGN CYCLE
- 8. A: INQUIRING AND ANALYSING Students are presented with a design situation, from which they identify a problem that needs to be solved. They analyse the need for a solution and conduct an inquiry into the nature of the problem. In order to reach the aims of design, students should be able to: 1. explain and justify the need for a solution to a problem for a specified client/target audience 2. identify and prioritize the primary and secondary research needed to develop a solution to the problem 3. analyse a range of existing products that inspire a solution to the problem 4. develop a detailed design brief which summarizes the analysis of relevant research.
- 9. B: DEVELOPING IDEAS Students write a detailed specification, which drives the development of a solution. They present the solution. In order to reach the aims of design, students should be able to: 1. develop a design specification which clearly states the success criteria for the design of a solution 2. develop a range of feasible design ideas which can be correctly interpreted by others 3. present the final chosen design and justify its selection 4. develop accurate and detailed planning drawings/diagrams and outline the requirements for the creation of the chosen solution.
- 10. C: CREATING THE SOLUTION Students plan the creation of the chosen solution and follow the plan to create a prototype sufficient for testing and evaluation. In order to reach the aims of design, students should be able to: 1. construct a logical plan, which describes the efficient use of time and resources, sufficient for peers to be able to follow to create the solution 2. demonstrate excellent technical skills when making the solution 3. follow the plan to create the solution, which functions as intended 4. fully justify changes made to the chosen design and plan when making the solution 5. present the solution as a whole, either: a. in electronic form, or b. through photographs of the solution from different angles, showing details.
- 11. D: EVALUATING Students design tests to evaluate the solution, carry out those tests and objectively evaluate its success. Students identify areas where the solution could be improved and explain how their solution will impact on the client or target audience. In order to reach the aims of design, students should be able to: 1. design detailed and relevant testing methods, which generate data, to measure the success of the solution 2. critically evaluate the success of the solution against the design specification 3. explain how the solution could be improved 4. explain the impact of the solution on the client/target audience.
