Stick It! **Area of Interaction:** Human Ingenuity
 * Significant Concept:** The Design Cycle can help me solve problems and complete tasks.
 * Unit Question:** How does the Design Cycle help me stick with it?

__Design Specifications:__ Using 4 rolls of duct-tape and the Design Cycle, create a useful product that can help people in their daily lives.

**Research & Analysis:** Backpacks are expensive. Good school bags can range from $21 to $46, at walmart. Someone in our group will use it for the rest of the day. **Design:** Captian America-of red,white, and blue All sides. No sides. Birthdaybag style.
 * Completely explain the problem you are going to solve and its relevance to your life.
 * Critically investigate the problem and evaluate information from a variety of appropriate sources.
 * Provide a detailed explanation of how you will test your product against the design specifications. (requirements)
 * Create a range of possible designs, and evaluate all of them against the design specifications (requirements).
 * Choose the best design and evaluate it fully against the design specifications (requirements).

Captian America-of red,white, and blue or

All sides. Both follow all the requirements.

We will take strips of duct tape and fold them. We will 5 walls. We will then tape then in a way that it is a bag. We will tape or fold two pieces of tape to make straps. we are going to do it the same as the plan but we are not making it captian america. No changes yet. **Realizing the Solution:** Yes Yes **Evaluate:** It is ok I think it can do the job and maybe a little more. At the begining it was sketchy but tordses the end we fixed it up and did really well. If you give up after one try you will never succed but if you try you at least have a chance. Yes because it is a lot harder and takes a lot longer if you are working alone. The amount of duct tape from 4 rolls to 100+ rolls but the school could not aford that :(
 * Create a plan that contains a number of detailed, logical steps that describes how you will use your resources and time.
 * Evaluate the plan and justify any changes to your design.
 * Skillfully use appropriate techniques and equipment.
 * Follow your plan, justify changes in the plan, and create an appropriate product using your resources and time.
 * Evaluate your product based on the design specifications, results of testing, and feedback from self and others.
 * Evaluate your performance at each stage of the design cycle and suggest improvements.
 * Completely explain how sticking to a task impacts your life and environment.
 * Does sticking together as a group affect your work? Why or Why not?
 * If you could change one thing about this activity, what would you change?
