Write a brief
Write a short
statement giving the
general outline of the
problem to be solved.
Our project is that we have to design what
Holy Name will look like in 75 years. We
think that the school is too small and we
need better facilities
Research the
problem
Think about ways in
which your
considerations can
be
solved/accommodated
for. E.g. If you
decide that your
school needs space
for increasing
numbers, what are
some ways in which
you can create space?
Creating space. We will need to buy houses
from around the neighbourhood to expand
the school. We are going to make another
floor and we will do that during the
holidays. We will also do fundraisers and
raise the cost to go to the school to get
more money for these arrangements.
Designing:
Write a
specification
This detailed
description of
the problem
spells out what
the design must
achieve and what
limitations will
affect the final
solution.
Some classrooms are too small for classes to
work freely and
Work out
possible
solutions
Combine the
ideas from
your
investigation
to suggest
several
possible design
solutions.
Sketch several
possibilities on
paper.
Select a preferred solution
Producing:
Prepare
working
drawings and
construct a
prototype.
Draw, to scale,
detailed plans
of your new
school.
Analysing and Evaluating:

Write a Report:
Write a report that explains the process you followed to complete your
future school design. Reflect upon all the stages in the process and
justify your work. Discuss the investigating, planning, designing,
