Reflection

Based on my investigation from the past two weeks i am going to rate my self a 4. I have identified the problem and have search for information and have acknowledged the sources i have seen.  I have had some trouble with this project. I have at times been on task and working well, but at other times i have been in the black hole.  I have described the problem and have seen its relevance. although i have done all my work the quality of my work was not to its full potential.

design Cycle

Design part 1: my first plan is to create a digital representation of the design cycle.
Part 2: I will create several plans so i can have variety.

Design part 2: i will create

The them of my project will be to draw. I will be using art to demonstrate the process of the design cycle. I know art well enough that i feel i can explain the cycle more easily. I will try to demonstrate the process of drawing something using the design cycle. this will be a simple theme that  a six grader will be able to understand. i know that a six grader will like to know how to draw or paint using the design cycle.
The simplicity for my project will be very simple. i feel that using art. com will be  my best chose. i have seen the simplicity of using art.com and i am liking it. on the left side of the screen you can see how simple it is to use Art.com. Painting is very simple, the colors are all there, the size change is simple, and the undo is very simple.  i like it very much.
My creativity is awesome. i feel i have so much creativity that i will be able to create an amazing project that is simple enough that a six grader will be able to understand it very easily. I have a good idea of what i will do. I know that i want to show the process of painting or drawing. I have such a creative mind that i can do a project that is effective an simple enough that a six grader can understand it.
the popularity of my project will be awesome. i have an idea that will be effective but simple enough that a six grader can understand it. This will be cool for not only the six grader, but it can be used by a higher level student that would need help. They can use an see if it helps them understand it better when it is explained.

The theme of my project is to crate a digital representation to show the design cycle. Photo shop is an amazing tool that i can use, but i don't feel it is simple enough to create it. I believe that that my them of creating a visual rep. of the design cycle can be created using a simple tool. what i am looking for is for the drawing to be viewed as a time lap. 

The simplicity of using photo shop is hard but it it cool. I have worked with photo shop very little, but i know that it does get confusing. I don't really like it to create this project, but i do like the options it gives me. i rated it a 3 because it didn't meet my requirements to haw easy i make it. I wold have given it a 4, but it does get too complicated at points. 

The popularity of this tool is big. people love photo shop. Photo shop can be used in many ways. the reality is that using photo shop is very complicated for a young person like me. 

Day 2 -investigation reflection

This was an awesome program that i want to us to create my project on




Love you ms. sorry i didn't do much today. your the best!!!!
