2. Develop a Design Brief

Note: Design Brief - The student's response to the challenge, showing how they intend to solve the problem they have been presented with. This will guide their investigation as they work to develop a more detailed design specification.

To get a 5-6 the student: critically investigates the problem, selecting information from a range of appropriate, acknowledged sources.

So, what does that mean? That means that you will:
  • create and answer questions that will help you solve your problem 
  • evaluate the information you gather (explain how you can use this information)
  • select information from several appropriate, acknowledged sources
Let's begin:
To drive my Investigation, I will research the following:

1. What are good design elements for making infographics/posters?
2. What is GIMP?
3. Complete a tutorial on GIMP.
4. Conduct research on an IB Learner Profile.

Use more than 5 sources to complete this work. Use in-text referencing.

IB Learner Profile: Inquirer

Learning Objectives - The student will: consider the importance of the problem within a wider context and outline a simple design brief, identify meaningful questions, carry out web search, select and organize appropriate sources and evaluate them.
