Grade 7 -I.T.



The Design Cycle
The design cycle is a cycle students use to help them create a project. It breaks down the steps for them so that it is very simple to follow.
There are 5 different steps to the design cycle:
  • investigate
  • design
  • plan
  • create
  • evaluate
If you follow this cycle then it will be very easy for you to do your project because with this process you re planning ahead and also knowing what you did wrong and what you will do next time.

Evaluation

The design of our presentation had changed from our original ideas. We didn't plan to bring in an actual Iphone and describe what it is, how to use it, what are its features and what each icon represents. It just happened. Our final presentation turned out to be well. We had a good amount of good quality photos. Our voice was loud and clear. We had good information about the Iphone. Although i think we could have found more information and used it to make our presentation better. I would recommend other students to do this next year because they will learn how to make a Voice thread and an Animoto. They can also use these 2 programs for other subjects.

Our Script

Iphone


Aoife: Iphone, by Latifa Al-Thani and Aoife Swords, We hope you enjoy our presentation, thank-you.

Aoife: The Iphone is Apple's first Internet-enabled Smart phone. It combines the features of a mobile phone, wireless Internet and iPod into one package.

Latifa: The Iphone is very popular through out the world. They are even spoken of in the smallest countries as they are advertises everywhere

Latifa: As they are very expensive, over 2000QR it is important they are kept scratch less. These covers protect them from damage.

Aoife: All these little pieces are put together to create the Iphone

Aoife: There are many benefits from the Iphone such as, calculators, GPS, satellites, Internet, music etc.

Latifa: There are many different colours and designs that make iphones look nice.

Latifa: Iphones can also be used in school, Geography is our focus and this picture shows a map of France.

Aoife: Iphone also has precise maps so you can locate yourself. Navigation programs, so you can find out where you need to be going, how high above water level you are climate, humidity level, earth facts and Internet.


Aoife: It even alerts you when you receive messages, emails and phone calls

Latifa: This is a useful picture that indicates what each icon represents. You could use the calculator in math’s class, maps in geography class, notes for remembrance and the Internet for almost anything you want to know.

Latifa: Thank-you, we hope you enjoyed our presentation and have learnt something about the apple Iphone.

my investigation about the iphone

The iPhone is Apple's first Internet-enabled smartphone. It combines the features of a mobile phone, wireless Internet and iPod into one package. It is used for many thing throughout this world. For navigation, mathematics, Internet, music, photos, interaction and fun it can be used in school. for example you can use the iPhone instead of a calculator for math because it has a calculator on it. another way is you can write down your homework in notes on the iPhone instead of using a homework diary. one more way is when you forget something at home you can call using the iPhone. also there is a calender on the iPhone you can use it to remind you things you have to do.i think that the iPhone is suitable for all ages.


Here are some sites you can visit to learn about IPhone and some sites that have pictures of the iPhone
