Class 13 (8Q April 12th)1. Student Led conferences (40 minutes) We are going to spend the first 40 minutes of the class today to help you prepare for the Student led conferences next weekend (24-25th April). You will have to upload 2 pieces of Design work to your Portfolio on MB. I recommend you to pick the Design brief, A4 (or A1 in case your Design brief was not complete) and B2 the initial sketches for your project.
So this is how you will be naming your files:
After uploading your 2 files you will upload a 3rd file called the Reflection Piece. In order to do that you will go to these 40 reflection questions You will choose 1 question of each section (backward, inward, outward and forward) and answer them in that file. This questions will allow you to prepare a conversation with your parents about the work you have done in Design so far.
2. Next step: Choosing your best idea After finishing your specifications and completing your 3 sketches, the next step of the process is choosing which idea seems to be the best one. I will providing you with comments today during class, you can also use them to make your selection.
However, after I was checking your files I realized that you are not ready to go there yet, so please make sure that before next class:
Continue working on this as homework, next class you will upload your selection, B3 so I can check and help you towards the making process.

Just put them on paper. Use pen, pencil, colors, markers.. whatever you want. 2. ATL: Give and receive feedback.
