6th March P4 9CY1 Mr Abe

In today’s lesson and for homework you are going to complete the Brain Dump task where you identify problems which may lend themselves to being solved by developing an app.
Learning Outcomes
You will learn:
  • To identify problems in your day-to-day life
  • To decompose problems into sub-sections
  • Research possible ways of solving such problems
Brain Dump Task
Each member of the team should come up with at least two or more different ideas for problems that possibly can be solved by making a  phone app.    Each team member should in their ‘Apps for Good’ doc write a section which includes the following:
  1. What is the problem e.g. “unhealthy hair”
  2. Description of the problem e.g. “People have different types of hair.  For example, some people have greasy hair others dry hair.  Some have split ends others fairly healthy hair. Treating hair with correct shampoo, conditioner, brushing and cutting can be very difficult”.
  3. What could an app do to help?
for example:
    1. Suggest different shampoos
    2. Suggest different conditioners
    3. Suggest brushing/combing frequencies
    4. Suggest cutting frequency
    5. Other treatments
    4. Potential problems?
for example:
  1. Collecting the data could be difficult.
  2. Could suggest links with more severe medical problems.
Research
Show the URL of where you have done research and say what you have found.
Your Job
  1. Discuss ideas with members of your team.  
  2. Try exploring your day from getting up to going to bed and list all the problems you may encounter.  The size or seriousness of the problem  does not matter.
  3. Complete the ‘Brain Dump’ task in your CT Workbook as described above.  This needs to be completed by next lesson.
  4. Respond to this post with the URL of your CT Workbook.
Example comment:
I have come up with problems about “healthy hair” and “health finger-nails” and have completed the Brain Dump  Task in my CT Workbook:

      Thank you Kerem

      Wake up App and Homework App. Could you please elaborate how you will go about designing them and exactly how they will work?

      1. You [students], need respond to our feedback and make improvements in your CT Workbook.

      2. Improvements should show that you have undertaken research. Are there other people or websites trying to address the same problems that you are trying to address?

      - What websites have you been to?
      - What did you find out?
      - How will your design differ from what is already being done?

      3. You will need to reply to the feedback posts from the teacher saying what improvements you have made.

      Remember that good English standards are very important. Proper Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar (SPaG) is very crucial and a generally poor standard of English grammar will undermine the quality of your work. You must use capital letters and full stops etc. when using the blog or your CT workbook.

      This has been done thoroughly with great attention to detail. A massive well done. The challenge now is to design an app to achieve this. However, before you do so I would like you to reflect on and list the problems that you might encounter with this project.
