Hold On:

Environments: Technology can encourage people to be environmentally friendly
message_pad

Have you ever been asked to take a message for someone and been unable to find a piece of paper?
Do you use recycled paper?

Nature conservation groups believe that people should be encouraged to look after our planet. One way to do this is to make a message pad holder for scrap paper. This will encourage people to recycle paper.

 

The Environments AoI asks; Where do we live? What resources do we have or need? What are my responsibilities?

The Environment AoI helps you understand about conservation and hopefully at the end of this project, you will understand how you can help. We will make sure that we look after our environment during this project. We will take care to save paper, ink and wood. We will encourage others to recycle paper at home.

Task 2: The design cycle

Draw the design cycle. You can copy the diagram below or come up with an original design idea. The diagram must make a complete circle. Good Luck!

Task 3: How can Technology be environmentally friendly? - MIND MAP

  • Work in groups of 2 or 3.
  • Open kidspirastion or inspiration - start>programs>utilities>
  • Write , "How I can be environmentally friendly in Technology" as the centre of your mind map
  • Brainstorm ways to be environmentally friendly.

TIP: the environment can be the place you live or work as well as the world outside your classroom.

 

 

To find our best solution to the problem, we always begin with INVESTIGATION. This is the first stage of the Design Cycle.Start here.

Good Luck
