Daily Note

  1. Today we will work on our IA's. I am open to answer any questions you might have, and I will check in with a few of you. 
  2. I will also give you your case study test
  3. We will discuss your make-up exam 

 

A little less comfortable

Content

You should be able to define every term in the case study. You should be able to explain each of the challenges. 

Process

One issue in the case study is to really understand the terms and challenges. It is important that you are able to explain to someone else whateach term means. 

Product

The best way to gauge your understanding of a case study is to create a product which applies your understanding of the case study. For example: 

  1. for blockchain: create a blockchain or create a miner
  2. for self-driving cars: create a primitive artificial vision system
  3. for genetic algorithms: create a genetic algorithm to manage a timetable

Process

One issue in the case study is to really understand the terms and challenges. It is important that you are able to explain to someone else whateach term means. You should be able to create pseudocode representations of the case study.

Our Big idea

The big idea for today is Case study .

The essential questions for this topic are:

What are new technologies and how can we understand them better?

It takes time to explore and really understand a big idea. If you want to
learn more about case study (which is connected to today's daily note), please click here .

We are learning this because as a designers must understand scientific and technical innovation. Designers use systems, models, methods, and processes to solve problems.



Reminders & routines:
