Your family has decided to take a vacation to Europe and have asked you to use the design cycle to make it a reality.
If you were performing the following tasks:
*Gathering the reasons why you want to go to Europe.
*Making a list of resources needed and researching them.
*Exploring existing trips/tours available.
*Briefly summarizing your plan to your parents.
What stage of the Design Cycle are you in?
Inquiry and Analysis
Developing Ideas
Creating the Solution
Evaluating

If a Designer is comparing different existing designs or products, in what part of the Design Cycle is he?
Inquiring and Analysing
Testing
Creating the Solution
Developing Ideas
You are drawing different sketches to come up with a variety of ideas to choose from. Once you are settled on ONE Idea, where would it go in the Design Cycle?

If you survey people to assess if your design works as you intended, where would you put the results of your survey?
Criterion C4:
Justify changes to the Design
Criterion B4: Design Diagram
Criterion D2:
Evaluate the Success of the solution
Criterion A2:
Planning the Research
The MYP Design Cycle is:
A way to structure the Design process
A problem-solving cycle that has 16 steps in total
a creative framework where you use Design Thinking
A requirement of the IB Program
Criterion A.2 allows you to plan your research. Why do you need to conduct research in order to Design?
Research is necessary to get a good grade
Research allows us to get information that will help us make an optimal Design
I do not research, I do not need it to design
Research is necessary to complete the Design Cycle but not to create a design
All of these are problems except?
An obstacle
A difficulty
The Solution
Failing grades
One of the first steps to finding a solution is
Looking at the ground
Do not talk about it
Inquirer
Skip step one
To think about the problem and its causes means you are
Solving
Analyzing
Talking
not going to solve it
