525,600 minutes - how will you spend them?


Year 10 Welcome back and Welcome to 2013 - This term gives you an opportunity to excel!

Before we broke for Christmas holiday we began on the introduction to our project (1.  Identify the problem). We agreed that the following elements are necessary components: stating the problem, discussing the relevance of the project, stating the solution to the problem, mentioning the "customer".  You must also connect this project to an area of interaction.

 2. Develop a Design Brief  - This is the 2nd step of the Investigate

1. Write a sentence or two to introduce this portion of your Investigation.

2. Then follow these learning objectives to success,

-formulate and discuss appropriate questions (4 or 5) that guide the investigation -this means that you should create questions and then do research that will help you solve the problem
identify and acknowledge a range of appropriate sources of information - use in-text referencing and create a bibliography
-collect, analyse, select, organize and evaluate information - this deeper analysis of your research will lead to higher marks
-evaluate your sources of informationwho are your sources? are they appropriate? are they experts in the field?
