Design a device
Your task: to design the next big
First:
tech device!!
Timeline panel
Research
your selected device to create a timeline to show and
explain its evolution. The timeline needs to have 8 panels. 7 showing how the
device has changed over time and the last panel will have a picture of your
design in it. The pictures can be drawn or digital.
Then:
create
your design as a sketch with labels by observing its
progression overtime and predicting what the future of that device could be.
How will people interact with your device?

Date &
Name of
device
After that: build a prototype of your design! You may use any materials/device to show
a model of your design.
Lastly: Finalise your work and make sure it is easy to understand and that you have done
your best work. Put your name on it and prepare to have it put on display so that everyone
can see your awesome design.
TASK: What is your task? Explain in your words what you need to do. (put on top of written
summary)
IMAGINE: What ideas could you use for your design?
PLAN your design on an A4 sheet. Make sure all aspects are clear and labelled so that this
can form part of the end display. How does it make life easier? How is your design the
same/different as the last version?
