2 -- Resource management and sustainable production
2.1 -- Resources and Reserves
ESSENTIAL IDEA
Resource management and sustainable production carefully consider three key issues—consumption of raw materials, consumption of energy, and production of waste—in relation to managing resources and reserves effectively and making production more sustainable.
CLASS ACTIVITIES
Say hey to Ms. Stanford!
Debrief the segments we watched the other day
Renewable vs. non renewable resources individual work
In your notebook:
Define each term
Find five examples of each type of resource (NOT only energy!)
Renewable vs. non renewable resources activity (on the smartboard)
Quick notes on renewability and resource reserves
Find an example of a design that provided an innovative solution to meet basic human needs for energy, food and raw materials with renewable resources. Be ready to share with the class.
Basic vocabulary activity -- Individual work to be completed in your notebook:
Define the following AND provide and example:
Re-use
Recycle
Repair
Recondition
Re-engineer
Dematerlization
Circular economy
Talk about the 1st Annual Flora Recycled Regatta (this is an individual assignment)!
Go over specific parts of the IB curriculum that you need to complete.
Make sure you have a good idea about what each part should look like -- also look at the DT Guide.
FRIDAY is a work day -- come ready to do something on your IA!!!!!!!

Today we will have some fun because some people are headed to the National Championship Game!
Take the material Codega gives you and create a conceptual model of an invention
The color that you get MUST be related to your product
You must include:
What it is
A name
What design problem it solves
What it would be made out of (if it were real)
Who it would be sold to (BE SPECIFIC!)
Be ready to give a 30 second pitch about your product.
KEEP IT TO YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!! We will work with them in just a second.
HOMEWORK
Next class and on Friday we will work on the IA's -- be ready to put in work!

Due to some printing problems (of Codega's making) we are going to push the standing desk stuff back to next week...sorry!
Instead:
Psychological factors of design
In your notebook (working with a partner) answer the following:
What considerations must be taken while designing for the following (this should be like a summary paragraph completed after reading and discussing each page as a group):
Take some notes on it in your notebook. This is concise and well organized so check it out and make sure that you are at least familiar with the info.

CLASS ACTIVITIES
Quick work with the data for adjustable desks
For adjustable items the female 5th to the male 95 percentile are usually provided for. Using our data come up with the bottom and top heights for our standing desks. This will provide the baseline for our desk prototypes.
What does this have to do with our current unit of study (Human Factors). be sure to cite specific information from the article to support your answer.
Do you buy the thesis of this article? Again, use specific information to either support or refute the authors argument.
Next class make sure that you come ready to work on your IA -- especially if I haven't seen it in a while/you haven't worked on it in class in a while...

Take a look at the IA -- We will start it in the second semester so this is the first step towards working on it.
Let's review the data you collected for the standing desk
This didn't go well -- make sure that the data table is cleaned up so we can analyze it next class.
You have three days to work on your project this week. Each day you will receive a progress grade. No work, no grade. You have been warned!

ESSENTIAL IDEAS

CLASS ACTIVITIES
Your job for the remainder of the week:
Using Tinker CAD everyone needs to design a version of the standing desk.
But first you need to create an IMAGE board:
A collection of images that you can look to for inspiration on your desk -- think a collage. There can be some standing desk images but also think outside the design -- what other elements (nature, other furniture, other industrial products, interesting design elements) that you might want to bring into your design.
Think textures, colors, size, shapes, patterns, ect -- not just pictures of desks.
This is a time to find images that INSPIRE you...they don't need to be just pictures of standing desks!
The Image boards MUST be annotated -- make sure I know what about these other images you like/inspire you.
Here is a basic rubric for scoring the Image Board
All images are annotated 25pts
NOT all images are of standing desks 50pts
At least two images capture an abstract concept (texture, color, etc) 20pts
All images are of decent quality and are legible 5pts
Here is a basic rubric for the CAD drawing
CAD file is sent to Codega in a .stl format 25pts
Desk is sent broken apart and assembled (may need two files) 25pts
CAD file reflect some of the imagery from the Image Board 25pts
CAD file demonstrates original thought and effort in SD design 25pts

Find an anthropometric data set that interests you and complete the following:
The organization that compiled the data
The date it was published
The domain (i.e. area) that the data set covers
WHY you find it interesting...
Take a few minutes to explore these web pages. Then take notes on your notebook. We will be working with this in greater detail over the next few class periods so make sure you have a solid understanding of the topic.
Take a look at this document. I know some of you were complaining about "we didn't know that" with the modeling unit. This will help. Perhaps you will see some of this information again in the near future....

Complete the lessons on how to use it
Using your drawings from you cube create a 3D CAD drawing of all of your pieces.
Mr. Hawkins and I will check your work for a completion grade
Next, create a 3D CAD drawing of basically anything you want that is NOT just a collection of cubes. Try to pick a complex item to draw.
Mr. Hawkins and I will grade your complex design. It will count as a quiz grade.
Getting some CAD basics down now will help you next year on the IA where you MUST create CAD drawings of your original design.
HOMEWORK
Study for the Modeling test on MONDAY!

Turn in your IA PArt C
Start working on your 1:45-2:00 presentation about your design idea to Codega and Mr. Hawkins
Your presentation must contain the following:
The original design problem
Your design solution and how it solves the problem
The materials it will be made out of and the JUSTIFICATION of your choice.
The type of manufacturing that you chose and the JUSTIFICATION for it.
The basic dimensions of your design.
Again, it MUST BE BETWEEN 1:45 and 2:00.
If you have a visual aid (probably a good idea) it MUST be sent to Codega by Tuesday night at 8pm.
