On The Right Track- Investigation
Technology Design Cycle Report
INTRODUCTION
Indentify The Problem
To illustrate this point, I created a chart, based on prior knowledge, to demonstrates all that I know about assessment in each class and the images are on display (two images below).
Design Brief
Research
+ Spreadsheet is a document that can organize your work into columns and rows.
+ Spreadsheet make for easier to display information, and can insert some formulas to their data.
+ People also use spreadsheet to learn about different things and make decisions.
+ Spreadsheet is base on different varieties of subjects.
+ Spreadsheet has the ability to calculate values using mathematical formulas and the data in the cells.
+ Microsoft Excel is one of the best examples for spreadsheet.
+ In a spreadsheet, spaces that hold items of data are called cells.
+ Daniel Bricklin and Bob Frankston created the first spreadsheet application.
+ A spreadsheet is generally designed to hold numerical data and short text.
+ An electronic spreadsheet is a computer program that is used for storing, organizing and manipulating data.
This is the example of spreadsheet:
Stand-alone Presentation:
Stand-alone Presentation is the presentation that is not required talking and explaining. It base on showing other or making slide show.
Stand-alone include
- essential
- Number list
- Diagram
- Roadmap
- Use title slides for each main point
- Use large explanations
- Poster
- Prezi
- A banner
- Slidshow
- Blogster
- Photo
- Graph
What is IB MYP?
The MYP(Middle Year Program) start from 6 to 10 grade. It design for students from 11 to 16. The MYP is preparing students to be successful at school and to be active.
I will now explain assessment for each subject:
Technology
The maximum score for technology is 36 because there are six component and each one is 6/6.
- Investigation 6/6
- Design6/6
- plan6/6
- Create6/6
- Evaluate6/6
- Attitude6/6
We have a little interview from our technology teacher Luke Watson. This is the result of the interview.
Math
The maximum score for math is 28 because there are two 6 and two 8.
- Knowledge and Understanding:8/8
- Investigating patterns:8/8
- Communication in mathematics:6/6
- Reflection in mathematics:6/6
Science
The maximum score for science is 36 because science have 6 criteria and the full score is 6/6.
- One world:6/6
- Communication in science:6/6
- Knowledge and understanding of science:6/6
- Scientific inquiry:6/6
- Processing data:6/6
- Attitudes in science:6/6
Humanities
The maximum score for humanities is 38 because it has some 10 and some 8.
- Knowledge
- Concepts
- Skills
- Organization and presentation
Physical Education
The maximum score for P.E is 32.
- Use of knowledge:8/8
- Movement composition:6/6
- Performance:10/10
- Social skills and personal engagement:8/8
English
The maximum score for English is 30.
- Content:10/10
- Organization:10/10
- Style and language Mechanics:10/10
The Arts
The maximum score for Art is 34.
- Knowledge and understanding:8/8
- Application:10/10
- Reflection and evaluation:8/8
- Personal engagement:8/8
Design Specifications
The product created to explain how assessment in grade 8 must:
- be stand alone
- be appropriate in length (not to long or too short)
- for MYP students (audience)
- outline assessment criteria, how each assessment criteria is graded and how and overall grade is calculated
- use a good balance of images and text
- when information and/or images are used from other sources - it must be referenced
The spreadsheet created must:
- include all subject
- include all assessment criteria
- allow for multiple units of work
- calculate averages, when appropriate
- include overall grade
- use different cell colours for different subjects
- include a heading
Testing Method
- Was the stand-alone appropriate to the Target Audience (MYP Students)?
- Was there a careful balance between text & images?
- Were all the classes covered in the stand-alone?
- Was there a clear introduction?
- Was the Color scheme, font & layout choice stylish & effective?
For the Spreadsheet:
- Was the Spreadsheet complete with spaces for all subjects, all criteria?
- Was Coloring used effectively on the spreadsheet?
- Did the Spreadsheet use the formulas for average? for sum? for sorting data? and for sell-merge & bordering & shading?
- Did the spreadsheet have a good title?
- Was the layout good?
For Comments:
- Name 3 things you like about the stand-alone
- Name 3 key facts from the stand-alone
- Name 3 things you like about the spreadsheet.
- Name 3 things that should be changed so the spreadsheet could be better.
- Name 3 things that should be changed so the stand-alone could be better.
I will conduct the best between 24th-26th September
The testers will be:
- Sophie
- Lareach
- Hanbeen
