Today we're discussing the importance of creating a logical plan for your projects. This plan will guide you throughout your design process. Can anyone share what they think should be included in a logical plan?
I think we should include the materials we need.
Exactly! We can remember this using the acronym 'M.R.P' — Materials, Resources, and Procedure. What else?
We might also need a timeline for how long each part will take.
Good point! Timing is essential to ensuring we're on track. Let's summarize: we need Materials, Resources, a Procedure, and a Timeline.
Next, we must focus on our technical skills. Can anyone explain why craftsmanship is important?
Craftsmanship shows how well we can create our product. If we have those skills, our solution will function better.
That's right! High-quality craftsmanship leads to better functionality. If we remember 'C.Q.R.' — Craftsmanship, Quality, and Result — we can keep this in mind as we work.
So, if we build something well, it will be more effective in solving the problem!
Exactly! Well done.
Let’s talk about adapting your plan while creating. Why do you think this flexibility is needed?
We might run into issues that we didn't expect!
Exactly! Adaptability is key. Remember, we can use 'A.R.E.' — Assess, Revise, Execute. Can anyone share how modifying a plan might improve the final solution?
If we find a better way to do something, we should definitely change it to make our product better!
Great thought! It’s all about improving our final output.
Lastly, let’s ensure our final solution functions as specified. What steps should we take to confirm this?
We should test it against our design specifications.
Exactly! Testing is crucial. We can remember 'T.S.A.' — Test, Summarize, Adjust. Can someone give an example of how we might test a product?
If we create a toy, we could see if it works as intended, like if it can move or play sounds.
Exactly! Great examples today, class!
A structured approach to outlining material and resource needs for project execution.
The proficiency and craftsmanship required to effectively create a product.
The ability of the finished product to correctly perform its intended functions.
The importance of modifying initial plans to improve the outcome based on real-time challenges.
To build it right, with steps in sight, a plan will keep the job in light.
Once upon a time, a carpenter learned that a solid plan helped him craft the most exquisite chairs. After facing problems with missing tools, he adjusted his blueprint, realizing flexibility leads to quality craftsmanship.
Remember 'M.R.P.' for your logical plan: Materials, Resources, Procedure!
Use 'C.Q.R.' — Craftsmanship, Quality, Result to remember the importance of skills in designing.

A structured outline detailing the materials, resources, and methods required for product creation.
The skill used in making something, emphasizing quality and detail.
The ability of a product to operate according to its specifications and intended purpose.
The ability to adapt or change a plan based on unforeseen challenges or improvements in the creation process.
This section outlines the requirements for students to demonstrate technical skills and create functional products in the MYP Design framework.
In Criterion C of the MYP Design framework, students are tasked with constructing a functional solution based on a logical plan while showcasing craftsmanship and necessary modifications. Emphasizing the importance of innovation, the criterion encourages students to engage with emerging technologies during the creation process.
Criterion C focuses on the ability of students to create a product that meets the designated design specifications. To achieve this, students must demonstrate the following key elements:
This criterion not only evaluates the final product but also assesses the innovative approaches taken during the creation process using modern technologies like robotics, IoT, and digital fabrication. The integration of innovation with technical skills prepares students for real-world problem-solving in technology and design.
