Design Brief and Specification




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 make a Prezi presentation to teach a 6th grader about the Design Cycle. It's important because this is their first year enrolled in the MYP program. 
Formulate a Design Specification
11. What are the requirements for this assignment?
The requirements for this is to present the Design Cycle in an entertaining form using a tool on the web or any other computer program, two minutes long and as simple and clear to understand.
12. What are the limitations you have with this assignment?
The limitations are that you need to use a computer to create the presentation and not a model. Also it is timed.
13. How will you "test" your presentation?
I will test my presentation by first creating a survey that rates each section from 1 to 5, 5 being the highest. It will ask for their overall opinion, whether it helped them learn about the Design Cycle, whether the font, theme, music and images helped to focus better on the subject. Then, I will create a quiz that will have questions related to each step of the Design Cycle. If the student gets 8 out of 10 questions right, then it means that they mastered the topic. This will be accurate data that will truly give tell me if my product was successful.  

Design Specification
  • 2 minute presentation
  • explains each step of the Design Cycle
  • simple and clear
  • easy to follow
REFLECT ON YOUR LEARNING
Today I learned to create 3 designs for my project. I jotted down my different ideas for the design brief. I got an idea of how my presentation should look like by doing this.
