Screenshots of making the website3/22/2021 To create the website, I decided to use HTML programming language as I had previously learnt how to use it in my digital design class and it is sufficient to achieve my goal. Here are some screenshots:
For the creation of the product, I decided to use parts of the design cycle that I have been using since year 7 in DD and similar subjects. This is because the process of the design cycle really helps me create a good solution as there is in-depth thinking and planning that goes into it. Before deciding this, I hesitated a lot as it is a very lengthy process and I wasn’t sure that I’d have time for it, however, after a lot of thought, I decided that I will just focus on the parts of the cycle that I find useful, those being: The research plan (it helps me know more about the product I’m creating, what is important to include, how I should create and more), creating design specifications and looking at the rubric I created, creating initial ideas and asking people from my target audience which they think is the best and their thoughts about each idea, evaluating these ideas against the design specification and deciding what my final product will look like based off these. All of this ensures that I have the best product I could possibly create and that I know what I’m doing when I actually start making the product. I’m really happy that I could actually put the skills taught in other subjects directly into my personal project as it makes me feel like I’m really an IB student who transfers ideas and skills taught in a scenario and applies it to another. I think that this also improves my skills for IDU. In conclusion, although this was a lengthy process, I believe that it helped me with creating the best possible product and I’m excited to keep working on it! First entry- My initial thoughts3/22/2021 A few weeks ago, we did the introductory meeting where Ms. Liza explained all the different parts of the personal project and what is required of us. She explained what the idea and objective of the personal project are, what it means for us and others involved (like our supervisors), what is expected of everyone, the first steps we need to take in order to start working on the project (like creating the criteria rubric) and more.
