PLAN of MY DIGITAL Footprint project.

What issue/ topic did you choose?

The issue/topic I chose was digital access.
Why is this important?This is topic is important because many people do not have access to internet and we need to do something about it. In addition some people like us are paying twice as more for internet and others are paying less and are more advanced in technology when we should be the ones.
Who do you want to reach? (target audience)
I want to target the  audience by trying to make a differnece in this. I want them to take action of this. (how advance we are in technology and how much we are paying)
What is the behavior your looking to change?

The behavior I am looking to change is for the people to take on the responsibilty to change this. Why doesn’t the audience already engage in this behavior?

The audience has not yet engaged in this behavior because they do not see the big picture. Leaving our access to the internet like it already is is not only going to affect us but our new generation.

What emotional appeal can you make?

I can 

Belonging; Power/Control; Fun: Safety;

Put your audience in a situation/scenario where the issue would come up in their lives.







Where are they? (setting)







Who is there? (characters)







What’s’ going on around them? ( ambient sound)







What are they saying? (dialogue)







Who is message brought to you by? ( Station; organization)

Investigation

I have decided to work on Digital Access. I will focus on the percentages of the people who do and who do not have any internet access. Digital Access reflects the ability that people have advatage for the internet. 

• Affordability
  • Internet access price as percent of GNI x 100 20%
• Knowledge
  • Adult Literacy 13%
  • Combined primary, secondary, and teritary school enrollment 7%
• Quality
  • International Internet bandwith per capita 10%
  • Broadband subscribers per 1000 inhabitants 10%
• Usage
  • Internet users per 100 inhabitants 20%

Evaluation ON EVERYTHING.

Investigation-
In the process of investigation I rate myself a 4. During this process I was not taking my time wisely and was getting distracted.  I was not paying attention to the products that were very much easier for me and I could get the job done faster.  If I were to do this again I would pay more attention to what I am doing.
Design-
In the process of design I rate myself a 3. Durning this process I was not clear in what I was doing. I was not even sure what I was going to do or not do.  My time managment was way off. I was not posting in time which caused me to be lacking in my information.
Create-
In the process of create I rate myself a 6. In this process I still was not sure of what I was doing. I started to explore flipbook but ended up not liking it so I descided to do an animate. go animate was much more simpler for me.
Evaluate-
In the process of evaluate I rate myself a 5.  I was clear in what I did do and what I did not do. However I could   have been more specific in what I did do wrong and what I could do differently. In my evaluation I could have said what kept me from doing it and what not.
Attitudues-
In this process of attitudes I rate myself a 5. I was distracting my peers and myself.  I was not taking advantage of the time I had in class. Although I did learn a lot in doing this process being my first year in a computer class.

EVALUATE REFLECTION

I still have not yet progressed on my project. I some how came across a problem. I was supposed to use FlipBook but came across the website "go animate" and saw more interest in this. And I came up with a solution. I will be using "go animate". I rate myself a a 0 right now because I have not yet started creating my project I am still in my rough draft.

PLAN

My total is 148 minutes divided by 60 is 2 1/2 hours. Now I can plan how I will use each day from now until OCTOBER 11 to complete my project. 
 DAY 1 30 min - CHOSE DESING, BRAINSTORM CHARACTERS AND SKETCH PRODUCT.

DAY 3 10 min - BEGAIN PRODUCT
DAY 4  5 min - FINISH PRODUCT . 
DAY 5 30 min -  BRAINSTORM TEST QUESTIONS 
DAY 6 30 min-  GATHER 6TH GRADERS AND SHOW THEM FI˜AL PRODUCT AND TEST THEM
DAY 6 30 min- GRADE TEST AND CREATE MY CONCLUSION

DESIGN BRIEF

10. Write a short statement of what you are going to make, why you are going to make it, and for whom you are making it.

Formulate a Design Specification

11. What are the requirements for this assignment? 

My requirements for this assignment is for 6th graders to understand the design cycle in the most simplest form to where they can understand it.

12. What are the limitations you have with this assignment?

There is many limitations to my assignment. For example, if I am doing the FlipBook if have already color, characters and background already there for me. 

13. How will you "test" your project?

I will give them a mini quiz with at least 5 questions at the end of the presentation. I will be asking them the steps of the design cycle in order. The passing grade would be a 80% and higher. 

INVESTIGATION REFLECTION

DESIGN SAMPLES
Sample 1 Design
For the first desgin I was thinking of just explaining the desgin cycle and see how it goes. In
my second design I was thinking of adding humor to it. maybe by starting off telling a story or something similar to it. On my third design I was thinking about trying to take turns on the speakers to get the person to understnad more.

On my investigation process I rate myself a 3-4 (75/ 85).
I have explained the problem and mentioned its relevance. I also investigated the the problem.  However I didnt fully complete my task.  However I did not achieve my goal because I could I have investigated and analyzed more.
I decided I wanted to do animation for my final project. I will be using "GoAnimate". This is a very easy and simple project I can do. It provides me a background, color, and characters.

INVESTIGATE

ComicMaster

I rated ComicMaster into 4 different categories. Backgrounds, characters, text, color.  

   My first rating in color I gave myself a 5 out of 5. This is the easiest job I think in doing the ComicMaster because everything you are already doing is with color already. This is helpful to me because I don't have to waste my time or worry about the background too much. There are various bright colors to use in designing the design cycle. However I may have a problem in choosing the right color to hook my audience. I may or may not distract them as much and I may or may not hook them as much as I want to. 

               The next category was characters. I gave myself a 1 out of 5. Characters would be a challenge for me. I need to find a way to actually explain myself through the drawing.  Thankfully ComicMaster has characters already build for you. I don't really have to waste my time in thinking what to use. However we have a limitation on characters and face expression. This might be a problem for me because I want to do various things with my characters and  have to limit myself. 

               In simplicity I gave myself a 4 out of 5. Simplicity might have to be my second easiest job for me when creating a comic book. The jobs in creating a comic book are really easy all you have to do is read each step carefully.  You can create one simple comic book in less than 6 minutes. It is almost like creating a movie. You have to use your design cycle steps to accomplish this comic book. Everything is already put there for you. I am confident in this section. 

               Last but not least entertainment. I gave myself a 3 out of 5. Entertaining the audience might be the hardest for me. I need to explain the design cycle to 6th graders and entertain them at the same time. However I need to find a way where they can learn the steps of the design cycle as well. I am not really that great in entertaining my audience but I shall try my best. 

               Overall my my total of points that I have received are 13 points in total. 

I rated my flip book for a score of 1-5. On my backgrounds I gave myself a 4 because It is an easy job for me and I wont have trouble with it. My characters I gave myself a 2 because I may not fully draw out what I actually meant. On text I chose a 4 because I able to give a clear description on what I'm trying to say. On color I gave myself a 4 because I know the value on what I'm supposed to put in. My overall score is a 14 in total. 

INVESTIGATE

Area of Interaction: Community and Service , Approaches to Learning & Human Ingenuity
