Approaches to Learning
Process Journal
Step: Simple documentation of what step you are taking in the process (i.e. concept sketching).
~ Time: Approximate (~) time needed to complete the step.
Resources: List resources needed to complete the step (i.e. A4 paper, pencil and ruler)
Process: Brief description of the process you will go through.
Progress / Changes: Document actual time and any changes you made to the process.
Presenting
Present your final design and document whether or not you met your Key Dates or had to change your plans. This can also be a link to your final product or solution.
PVLEGS
When presenting in public, it's important to use the following acronym and rubric to polish your presentation.
Poise
Voice
Life
Eye Contact
Gestures
Speed
Planning for the unforeseen
During the design cycle, it is rare that everything goes to plan. Measurements need to be adjusted, unforeseen events interfere with key dates. Use the template provided to document any challenges that you encountered while making your product or solution and what changes you made to your design and plan as a result.
