I completed a minor project for IB Design Technology around the end of October. This project was really interesting and intriguing for me as I really enjoyed developing ideas and progressing through the design cycle. I think I have been able to identify my strengths and weaknesses in this project. Starting off with the strengths, […]

Graphic Skills // CAS Creativity
LO1: An experience that will develop strengths Over the October break, I have been working on developing my sketching and rendering skills. Here are some of my works. developed in chronological order. This CAS Creativity experience is allowing me to identify my strengths and weaknesses and work on improving all appropriately. Ideally, I would like […]
Graphic Skills // CAS Creativity
LO2: Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process. Here are some of the works I have done over the last month or so in Graphic Skills. I think I am developing my skills with Copic markers and freehand drawing, I want to be able to replicate real-life products into accurate […]
CREST Project Final Presentation // Science
HERE is my final presentation for the CREST Project. I did submit a modified version of my IGCSE Design Technology project, and recieve the GOLD AWARD for it. I am proud of my work regarding the gold award and my home based learning presentation.
Introduction to CAD : Learn Fusion 360 in 90 minutes // DT
Lesson 1 Getting Started The first lesson was mostly just about the differences in the User Interface (UI) of the previous versions on Fusion 360 compared to the recent ones. It is interesting to see the thinking behind the changes of the interfaces between the Legacy Interface and the Current Interface. Lesson 2 Starter Activity In […]
1/6 Design Thinking // DT
In this post, I write about how I approached the design thinking process. Here are some of the skills that developed the most for me during the whole design thinking approach: Analytical Thinking + Innovation Critical Thinking + Analysis Complex Problem Solving Technology Design + Programming Reasoning, Problem-Solving + Ideation Systems Analysis + Evaluation What was the […]
2/6 Design Thinking – Creative Process // DT
After deciding on what my design goal and success measures would be, I searched online for existing ideas, then I drafted some possible ideas for my final product. This allowed me to develop my technical skills in 3 point perspective drawing. I was able to develop a range of feasible ideas while considering suitable materials, […]
3/6 Design Thinking – Innovation // DT
During this next part of the design thinking process, I was able to make iterative developments to my chosen idea. There were several things I was working the kinks out of using my problem solving and critical thinking skills. Innovation by design is the use of a designer’s sensibility and methods to address a client’s […]
4/6 Design Thinking – Planning for Production // DT
At this stage of the design thinking process, I started working on communicating my designs in multiple to make it easier for third parties to understand and produce my product. The drawings that were produced in this stage were vital to all design and engineering fields to interpret the details to produce the products. This […]
5/6 Design Thinking – Realization // DT
In this part of the process, I was working turning my planning and designs into a real manufactured product. This allowed me to critically asses my work, and I was able to learn more about the obstacles facing designs and manufacturers, and how to work around them. Below are the photos of my realization process. […]
