Term 1

Introduction

My name is Nasser Korathe Mohammad, I am a student in grade in EISM. I have created this blog for my MYP Digital Design class which is my Folder that keeps my information for this year. I have studied MYP design only for a year and now it will be my second year. Our teacher shows us what to do when doing jobs and she helps us to be a good designer. The previous year in term 1 I was studying about the characteristics of good advertisements. In term 2 I worked with a partner to try to participate in the tech fair. In term 3 I worked in creating a storyboard and I was scratch programming, we did a few things to try out scratch then we made a story out of it (even though it's super hard). I can't wait to start learning about 3D modeling this year. My hobbies are Football, Archery and watching on my phone.

MYP design makes us study about existing designs and products and annotate it. It is a bit difficult to think new and helpful designs if we don't know what the problem we are trying to solve is. I have read a few websites about the characteristics of good designers and how they solve problems.

STATEMENT OF INQUIRY- Products developed creatively using the technique of 3D Modelling to meet an individual's needs can increase their ability to function within the real world.

RELATED CONCEPT- Ergonomics

KEY CONCEPT- Development

GLOBAL CONTEXT- Personal and Cultural Expression

ATL Skills- Thinking- Creative Thinking and transfer 

Research- Information Literacy


The MYP Design Cycle in Simple Steps

Explanation of the MYP Design Cycle in 12 Steps

What kind of learner am I?

Smart Goal

3D Printing


Tinkercad

Learning the moves 

 In this lesson I learned how to move the objects or shapes anywhere on the workplane by clicking the object and dragging it to another area.

Camera Controls: 

In this lesson I how to move around views to look at things at different angles. You do this by pressing the arrows to check different views.

Creating Holes: 

In this lesson we hap to touch the shape then press shift and then hole and then group to create the hole of the shape.

Scale,copy and paste:


In this lesson we learned how to copy and paste a shape by pressing Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and scale a shape by moving the white dots around a shape

The Problem
The UAE Nurses Association claims that one of the most difficult parts of their job is dealing with small children who have a fear of needles.Although the association has some tips and tricks like putting numbing cream to partially freeze the surface of the skin before injecting medicine, sometimes the anxiety levels of small children are so high that it is difficult to get them to hold still.If only there was an easier way to administer medicine within the syringe.

 My Design Situation:
1- Usually some problems that teens to adults have is that their pants/jeans are too big fit for them and if they were to wear a belt they might be late for their class/job. 

2- When students hold water bottles and bring them to class they will kind of have to use a whole hand and bring their books and other things on their other hand. 

My Briefs: 

1- Friendly Syringe toy:
A really good solution for syringes is to make them look like toys and friendly looking so the kids can trust the doctors and nurses and think that nothing bad will happen to them. The friendly syringes are usually aimed at little kids or kids who have fear of needles or sharp things. The ranges of age of the little kids are usually 1 – 8 years old because they won’t understand that the syringes are helpful for their health. Mostly this design would be used in hospitals but in the kids section because the adults don’t need the syringes that look like toys because they won’t feel the need to use it. The designs will look differently for each gender and age. The boys will get a syringe will look like a small robot with a syringe inside it so it is hidden. The girls will get a syringe that looks like a butterfly and the body is the syringe. Comes in any color

2-  Jean / pants straps:
A faster solution for people to wear their belts is to make their belts attached to the jeans / pants so it will look like straps attached to it to make it easier and faster for people to go to places. This invention is mostly for teenagers and adults because they usually have to wear good clothing when they have to go to school or important meetings. The little kids will not really think that their looks are really important so they will not use a belt.  This design will be worn for school or for important meetings in an adult’s job. It will feel much comfortable when wearing in a long meeting. The design is going to include the regular pants that have belts that look like straps attached to the pants so it will be easier to wear. colors vary from black to brown to blue.


3-Water bottle fabric case holder:
  The invention is a water bottle fabric case that is supposedly covers all parts of a water bottle except the part which is used for drinking. The side of the water bottle has a handle on its side so people can carry other things easier. This is mostly aimed for students so the students can hold their books easier while they don’t have to worry about holding the water bottles. Mostly this design would be used in school because mostly the students will use inventions like this and students are usually in school. The design will look like a cylinder shape fabric so it can store water bottles in them. The side of the case will have a small little handle so people can carry it easily. The bottom of the case will be thicker than the rest of the sides so if the water bottle was to leak the water won’t go anywhere. It comes in any colors.

  1. In Term 1 students created the design folder in the form of blogs. As the subject caters to design technology they were opportunities to understand the design cycle through the use of videos, activity sequencing in the form of a comic strip through which students were able to get a better grasp over the subject as they progressed through the design cycle. The current unit about 3D Modelling enables students to design ergonomically designed 3D models. Students worked in collaboration by brainstorming about 3D printing and its technologies which enhanced their awareness about 3D printing. They were introduced to designing software - TinkerCAD and with the help of tutorials familiarised themselves in building objects consisting of basic shapes. Students made choices to write design situations and design briefs for modelling 3D objects. Nasser has been consistent in completing tasks on his blog and always has demonstrated an inquiry based approach to his learning. However he is encouraged to complete reflections and put in more content when writing about design situations. The design briefs are missing. You are currently at a level 4/8.
