Tech Fair (Criteria A)

Criteria A: Inquiry and Analysing

Global context: Scientific and technical innovation 

Statement of Inquiry: Developments in technology could be seen as blessing or a curse depending on the impact it has on an individual or society.

Inquiry Question: How can we use Technology to help develop our ideas to create a masterpiece for the ‘Tech Fair’? 

ATL: Thinking skills and research skills

Idea 1

What was the product or software developed and how does it work?

 Developing an app is something that is something new since I don't know Java script. You can make the app look as you want it too. I hadn't really decided on a topic for the app. By learning simple coding online for Java and try to make and app. The functions of an app are quite simple and easy. 

A paragraph on what was developed and how does the product benefit the society.

It can basically about anything and that is something I hadn't decided yet on the topic. 

Critical Judgement- 

The workload would have been too much and I wouldn't able to complete the app in time for the tech fair. 

Idea 2

What was the product or software developed and how does it work?

For the second idea I thought stop motion was a really good idea. It was better to team up since it is a lot bigger project and it would be nice to have a friend to work on it on it with you. Creating a movie is something I haven't done before so I thought it will be interesting. We are going to use a software called as Dragon Frame to create an inspirational or thought provoking video using clay models and drawing on the white board.

Reflection 

At first I didn't have an idea to use in tech fair. I was looking up for ideas for tech projects and I saw an article about a teens developing an app. I thought it was pretty cool so it is my first idea. Developing an app is something that is something new since I don't know Java script and it is the coding software used to develop apps and games. It will make me go out of my comfort zone and learn new things. I have learnt the basics of  Q-Basic , Visual Basic and C programming before. 

For my second idea, Aamnah and I decided to put art and technology together as one and create a video using stop motion animation.
