Introduction:

The design process is a systemic, interactive approach to problem solving that promotes innovation and yields design solutions. Young people who have cool ideas like skateboards, Ipods® and Webkinz® all need to follow a creative logical process to take an idea to market. Are you creative enough to design an idea worth marketing?
 

Outcomes: Develop an understanding of the attributes of design. (ITEA 8)

  • The design process is clearly defined, iterative and creative process. (ITEA 8-H)
  • Design problems are seldom presented in a clearly defined form. (ITEA 8-I)
  • The design needs to be continually checked and critiqued, and the ideas of the design must be redefined and improved. (ITEA 8-J)
  • Requirements of a design, such as criteria, constraints, and efficiency, sometimes compete with each other. (ITEA 8-K)
