Research project: Assessment Criteria – Planning (P) Define the problem, formulate a design brief or research question, select variables or specifications Research (R) – Strategies, data collection, data processing and analysis How can our schools be more environmentally friendly when providing school lunches? • [Sample] Project background • Schools in Hong Kong are concerned about … • What is available for student lunches …. • What resources are used in order to produce school lunches … • In Australia the “OzHarvest Food Rescue” have shown studies where “24 to 35% of school lunches end up in the bin”. Taken from: http://www.ozharvest.org/ourimpact.asp?pageID=611 (3/11/11) • Design brief / Research Question: • DESIGN GOAL • TARGET MARKET • MAJOR CONSTRAINTS • SUCCESS CRITERIA GREEN DESIGN Due:12thDecember, 2013 My research question is: What do I need to research? What strategies will I use? How will I communicate my detailed material?
Planning (P) Planning Defining the problem Identification of problems or need Brainstorm and analyse all areas of the problem or need, include a moodboard which graphically represents the problem Mind map of any problems associated with the issue Evidence of the issue (research and data to prove need) Feasibility study and task analysis – shows links to cost, time, facilities, resources and scope Correct referencing Fomulating the brief and research question State and justify the design brief, finishing with a design goal of what you intend to make Clear target market Major constraints listed and explain how it relates to your project Success criteria created Correct referencing Selecting variables and specification points Analyse your design brief Initial specification points linked to your design brief Specification points are justified, explained and measureable Reflect and add revision of specification points Correct referencing
Research (R) Checklist – Research Strategies A written research plan with priorities of what you will research Primary and secondary sources of data Identified both qualitative and quantitative data Correct referencing where appropriate Data collection Research and data is focused and appropriate to project Balance between qualitative and quantitative Presented research in a variety of forms (graphs, tables, diagrams, drawings and photographs Research and data includes labelling and explanations of outcomes Data processing and analysis You have processed raw data and presented in an astute (clear) manner You have transformed data into a suitable form for analysis (graph, table etc) Your written analysis is detailed and explains how your design brief can be answered You have analysed the relevance and usefulness of your data You have identified any errors or uncertainties you encountered throughout your research/ data You have assessed and commented on the reliability of your data You have used correct referencing
