My Three Rough Sketches

          

My 3 TinkerCad Designs

Reflection 1:

This TickerCad design is suppossed to like a bone. At the start of this design I had no idea how to creat the two ends of the bone so I had to go ask Miss for some help then she told me different techniques and the fact that you need to have patience when you make things like this.

Reflection 2:

This TinkerCad design is supposed to be a syringe for boys I will have to improve on this one in the future when my teacher gives me feedback. It takes alot of patience to make the most detailed parts of the product because it has to be equally spaced out and spread.

Reflection 3:

This TickerCad is supposed to be a necklace. This was one of the most difficult designs because to make the correct design is very hard. The tiny circles in the big circles were hard and easy to adjust but this one was fun because I liked the final look.

The Problem
The UAE Nurses Association claims that one of the most difficult parts of their job is
dealing with small children who have a fear of needles. Although the association has some
tips and tricks like putting numbing cream to partially freeze the surface of the skin
before injecting medicine, sometimes the anxiety levels of small children are so high that
it is difficult to get them to hold still. If only there was an easier way to administer
medicine within the syringe.

The Problem:

My dog goes around the house biting things and that ruins the furniture. So when guests come over it doesn’t look good because it looks like old furniture when we just bought it. I train my dog a lot but dogs cant stop chewing because that is a habit they are born with. Although there are many things to solve this problem I am pretty sure I could make something more creative and something that would attract my dog's attention.

So I am basically going to make an attractive chew toy for my dog so he can chew that and not chew the furniture in the house.

The Problem:

Many people around the world have money problems and girls can't afford to get jewelry for themselves. So my idea is to help those girls out by making jewelry with recycled  items and also  items that I find around my house to make jewelry and give it to the charity associations and also sell a few of them and give the money raised to the charity association.

DESIGN BRIEF

Child Friendly Syringe 

The design brief for my child friendly syringe is a liquid syringe which doesn’t have such a big and sharp needle and has a good grip so when the nurses place the syringe over the child’s skin the syringe doesn’t movie here and there and goes in the wrong place and something bad happens to the child do first of all there has to be a healthy grip and tight grip for the nurse/doctor. I am aiming for mostly like nurses, skin care doctors, just normal checkup doctors and also maybe blood testers, but I am mostly aiming for the nurses because they are usually the people who have to go through all the tantrums the children make and all the crying they do when they see a syringe. My idea for they shape, so my idea is to make a different for the boys and a different one for the girls. For the girls I am thinking of doing a butterfly because you know how the top part of the butterfly is like pointy so that could be the syringe shape for the girls and for the boys I was thinking like a mini football at the end of the syringe so when the nurse pushes the football the needle comes out and pokes it but while the nurse pushes the football baby songs start to play the same for the girls. There aren’t really any specific colors but like pink and all the girl colors for the girls and like blues for the boys. My target audience are little babies and 3-5 year old.

  

Dog Chew Toy

The design brief for the chew to for my dog is going to be a rubbery/ soft chew toy for my dog which will have the scent of dog food because there are going to be dog biscuits/snacks in it. I am making this chew toy because my dog always goes around the house chewing the furniture even though he has so many chew toys to chew he still decides to chew the furniture which is quite shocking.  I am mostly aiming for dog owners and maybe also pet shop keepers and also veterinarians. I am trying to make the shape a dog bone since its chew toy for my dog and other dogs. I am thinking that the texture should be smooth, bite able and soft for the dog and not too hard that it breaks the dog’s teeth just the right texture. I was thinking of the color and I thought maybe like a neon orange color and so its bright enough for the dog to see.  

Jewelry                                                                                                                                                   The design brief for my second design is different types of handmade jewelry for the poor people around the world. I am making handmade jewelry out of house items and recycled items to. I want to do this because I feel really bad for all the people who can’t afford to get jewelry and want to express their personality more than they can. There obviously can’t be a specific shape because it’s all different and unique.  I am mostly aiming for like Kenya and Africa and etc. I’m not trying to be racist but those are the most common places I know that are a bit poor. My idea is to help the girls and boys too so we can let the people show who they are and what they want to be and also give them a chance to be free with wearing anything. I am also thinking of doing something to do with clothes because they are all walking around in torn clothes and some don't even have clothes so they burn from the hotness in their countries. I was thinking of summer clothes since it's summer half of the time.

TERM 1

Introduction:

Hey, I’m Tanya and I am 12 years old and I’m in 8^th grade. I’ve been studying in this school since Kg 1. I am from India and America but my nationality is American. I lived in USA for three years and was given birth there. My hobbies are dancing, playing drums and tennis.I have got a dog named tommy and he’s 2 years old, his bread is german spitz and is a really fluffy kiddo. Unfortunately I’ve got no siblings and I’m an only child, but at least I get to get the most attention but then there’s my dog who gets loads of attention to.

Last year we had an event called tech fair, this is where we could create our own inventions with our mates and show them to the audience. In my group there was myself Tanya, Noaf, Nadia and Lara we were a group of four. The four of us made a 3D Model of a Polaroid… AMAZED?? Yes I know, but unfortunately we weren’t picked for the tech fair because there were better rand bigger inventions that miss thought were more suitable, but I guess that’s ok because now that makes us try 10 times harder and definitely be selected.

Today the teacher introduced us to a new topic called 3D Modeling. In the past I have seen 3D printers and I have also seen many people using a 3D printer I hope that in the future I will be able to use on. I want to know that why were 3D printers invented and who thought of it. It’s a bit difficult to think of new and innovative designs. The subject MYP Design makes us analyze the flaws that present. In different websites I have seen the characteristics of MYP Designers. It is to be very observant and note things that create a problem and re-design them.

 The MYP Design Cycle consists of 4 stages:

Criteria A - Inquiry and Analysing

Criteria B - Developing Ideas

Criteria C - Creating the Solution

Criteria D - Evaluating the Solution

STATEMENT OF INQUIRY – Advertisements as a form of communication have evolved through time and space to influence audience’s perspective.

KEY CONCEPT – COMMUNICATION

RELATED CONCEPT – FORM AND PERSPECTIVE

ATL SKILLS-  Creative Thinking, Communication,  Information Literacy           

GLOBAL CONTEXT - ORIENTATION IN TIME AND SPACE

WHAT KIND OF LEARNER AM I?

CAMERA CONTROL

In this tutorial of camera controls I understood how to navigate around the object using View Cube. The view cube is used to view the object from different angles. It is called a cube because it has 6 sides labeled.


LEARNING THE MOVE RESULTS

This lesson was very easy because you only need to move the object and place according to lines given. This lesson teaches you how to move the objects and results.

CREATING HOLES

In this lesson the instructions were to use one of the shapes, the hexagon. This was something new and fun because in the othere lessons there were no shapes.

SCALE, COPY & PASTE

This lesson was a new experience because we had to scale the shapes according to the measurements given. And in this lesson the taught us how to copy & paste using 'CTRL C' for copy and 'CTRL V' for paste though I already knew that but it was fun.
