Year 9, we have looked at 3 exercises which gave us a bit of background information about the internet.  We are now ready to move on to Criterion A - Investigate.

The Investigate has 3 tasks:  1.  Identify the Problem (this is an introduction and a design brief that explains your project); 2.  Develop a Design Brief (this is where you ask and answer questions that will help you solve your problem); and 3.  Formulate a Design Specification (this is where you will define the characteristics that your final product will have and design a test to evaluate your product).

Let's begin by using Google Docs (http://docs.google.com) to write a paragraph that will identify the problem. (Follow this template and you will surely be successful.)

Learning objective: Consider the importance f the problem for life, society and/or the environment.
