During Term 3 you will be working on a special project - Communicating Information.
The problem is as follows:Guincho is considered both one of the best and most dangerous windsurfing beaches in the world. How can we better communicate to people, once in the sea, about changes in weather and sea conditons?
Challenge:Create a new method of communication that could be used by life guards or the general public. The system should be cheap to produce, easy to learn but complex enough to communicate a range of instructions. The system can be visual, audible, sensory, or a combination of these.
There you have it Year 10 - Term 3 in a nutshell. Keep your mind open and allow your creativity to drive your solution.
Remember that the Investigation has 3 steps: Identify the problem, Develop a Design Brief, Formulate a Design Specification.
The Identify the Problem is due at the end of NEXT class.
Template for Identify the Problem
Learning objective: consider the problem and its solution in relation to its possible impact on life, society, and the environment.
