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 making a animated drawing to show the six graders about the design cycle

Formulate a Design Specification

11. What are the requirements for this assignment?  to have simplicity , size of font ,details of design cycle.

12. What are the limitations you have with this assignment? the limitations are to do at least 3 paragraphs

13. How will you "test" your project? to see i all the audiance understand what i meant with my presantation.

neatness  |  16

size of font  |  18

theme  |  10

i gave neatness a 16 because i think that my projecthas to be neat. when a project is neat it is way more readable and the audiance will understand what you are trying to say.neatness is important because some six graders cant read very well and if the presintation is not neatand readable they wont understand it.

i gave the size of font a18 because the letters should be big enough for the whole audiance to see the presitation. i think that the size of the font is very important because the audiance should be able to see the presintation. if the size of the font is to small and the audiance cant see it the presintation will not be very well preformed and designed.

the theme is very important. i gave the theme a 10 because the theme is an esatial thing on a sucessful presitation. it helps you to have a good structure of whatever you aretalking about.

music  |  12
simplicity |  16
flipbook  |  26
score  |  54


i gave music a12 because i think that it will help the sixth graders learn more and be more interesting to them. they will be able to hear and see the design cycle. the music that i will use will catch the attention of the sixth graders.

i gave simplicity a 16 because if the project is simple the sixth graders learn more easily. when the presentation is easy not only does it help to explain better but i is easier to make or build.i think that if you use simplicity on your project it will help a lot.

i gave flip book a 26 because i am going to use flip book  for my project i will make a comic book or an animated drawing of the design cycle. i will create the drawing that will teach six graders about the design cycle.

day 2 investigation-reflection

today i found in that cool  tools i still haven't decided what tool i will use to do on my presentation.i think i will create a video for the six graders. the websites i researched are freepath.com animoto.com vuvox.com jaycut.com i have the plan part and i know that the video will be cool
