According to the IBO, "Students are expected to evaluate the product/solution against the design specification in an objective manner based on testing, and to evaluate its impact on life, society and/or the environment. They are expected to explain how the product/solution could be improved as a result of these evaluations.

Students are expected to evaluate their own performance at each stage of the design cycle and to suggest ways in which their performance could be improved."

To get full marks the student:

• evaluates the success of the product/solution in an objective manner based on the results of testing, and the views of the intended users,
• provides an evaluation of his or her own performance at each stage of the design cycle and suggests improvements, 
• provides an appropriate evaluation of the impact of the product/solution on life, society and/or the environment.

Let's recap what is needed in the Evaluate (Criterion E).

1. Print the questionnaire (that you created in the Investigate) and show your game to 5 people and ask them to answer your questionnaire.
2. Write a paragraph to "analyze" the feedback. In other words write about the scores that you received and say how your game could be improved. (Use phrases like: Based on my feedback I can conclude . . .)
3. Evaluate your performance at each of these stages of the design cycle: Investigate, Design, Plan, Create AND suggest ways that you can improve your performance. (You need 4 paragraphs here).
4. Write a final paragraph saying if you accomplished your goal and what impact it will have. (In other words, look at the unit question - were you successful? Explain. Relate back to the Area of Interaction.) Remember this is the final paragraph of your research project. It should finalize the project.


I will also need your Create (Criterion D). (Game, Process Journal and Documention)

Please print your work for Create and Evaluate.
