Explain the exact problem, related to being a person of determination, that you will create a solution for. Tasks Complete the two tasks listed above in the below section Inclusivity is an important aspect to take into account when designing and/or creating something for the use of the public; for example, a rollercoaster. There are many benefits to being inclusive when designing something for the general public, these include economical benefits for the person or business responsible, the benefit of doing something good for the world and many others, the list goes on. In this project I will elaborate on the problem of the lack of rollercoasters and other entertaining rides for people of determination. People of determination may have problems with mounting/dismounting such a ride or have problems with the ride itself. Examples include: the seating may not support their spinal support, or for some of those with disabilities in their legs, there is nothing to secure their legs with.

"health issues mostly physical i think" "their bones” "Probably a wheelchair." “some people of determination don't have sensation in their arms or legs” Is it important for you that inclusivity is implemented in roller coaster rides? 2/5 Any person of determination, it is best if there is a variety of people with different disabilities/ a classmate. "yes very important" "YAS GUrL” "Yes because it is not foair to disables people" “Being inclusive is important when designing rollercoasters in order to understand the needs of different people. Therefore, it is necessary to design rides suitable for everyone including people of determination.” Have you ever been impacted by the fact that many rollercoasters are not very inclusive/ do you think it makes an impact? What would you consider the main issue when it came to rollercoaster for disabled people? "i visit the nonetheless" "sUrE" "yes” visitaccessible them withby with family andaround friends” Challenge task: Produce a digital response collection form that will help collect data from more sources and have the“Idata people from the world. Do you think that the fact that most rides do not support diabilities impacts the amount of times disabled people visit theme parks or do you visit them with family and friends nonetheless? 3/5 Any person of determination, it is best if there is a variety of people with different disabilities/ a classmate.

These might be rollercoasters that have been designed specifically for people of determination or general rollercoasters that have features included in them that make them useable by people of determination. Remember you might be designing an innovative product or improving an existing product! Parts, purposes and complexities task: Choose your first rollercoaster and ask Question Answer What are its parts? What are its various pieces or components? What are its purposes? What are the purposes for each of these parts? Brake run(section of the tracks meant to slow or stop the car), Buzz bars (bars used to keep passengers in their seat), Drive tire( a tire used to propel the car on the tracks), Launch track(a part of the tracks used to propel the car at the beigging of the ride) , Lift hill/chain lift (a part of a rollercoaster used to propel a track up a hill in the tracks), Linear induction motor(the motor used to propel cars), Train/Car (the moving part of the rollercoaster used to accommodate passengers) Criterion A LESSON OBJECTIVE Marble Rollercoaster Aiii: Analyse Existing Products Analyse existing products using: Tasks • ACCESS FM Now you should look for existing products.

Tasks • Describe problem solved, justify both your product choice against other products Using information from strand i, ii and iii, describe what you plan to make. Make sure you summarise your research to justify your decision. You can use your research to describe the problem you will solve (Ai), why your product will suit your client (use Aii), why it is better than existing products (use Aiii). Use the section below to pitch your idea. It should be based on facts from your research but should also really sell your idea! Use persuasive language to help you. I will build a rollercoaster from plastic bottles and cardboard rolls. As a replacement for a drive tire I could use a magnet and a small electric motor, which could help speed up the ride when the rollercoaster would lift, or in any other case when this may be neccesary. One of these contraptions could even be used to slow down the ride. My rollercoaster will be Indiana jones themed, and will be designed to be themed like a desert. I will solve the problem of the lack of inclusivity by creating and ergonomic design for my seats, straps to secure limbs and making sure that the ride is slow enough for disabled people to ride. This will be suitable for people with any spinal problems (ergonomic seats), problem with limbs like arms and legs (straps) or any other medical problems that people may have. Due to the slowness of the ride, it is also suitable for people with mental disabilities and people of very young ages to enjoy. This rollercoaster, would be better than existing ones, because it has a catchy theme and is designed to suit disabled people. It is inclusive and therefore can help in many ways. Firstly, economically. Inclusive rides like this one are perfect for theme parks to earn even more as disabled people can ride and therefore are more willing to pay. Secondly, marketing wise. Showing of a super inclusive ride like this one, can attract more clients to a themepark. Finnaly, inclusivity itself. Being inclusive in the modern world is a significant aspect of any community. Creating an inclusive ride gives benefits to everyone, both the people who can enjoy it and the people who make money from it.
