A Guideline for Parents & Students
The Design Cycle
The four elements of the design cycle illustrated:
1. Investigate 2. Plan 3. Create a product/solution 4. Evaluate
International Baccalaureate Design Cycle
MYP technology is based on a model of learning that incorporates knowledge, research, skills and design principles in problem-solving contexts, while at the same time maximizing the use of local and readily available resources.
The design cycle connects to real life situations.
When organizing and planning work, students should follow all four elements of the design cycle. In the early stages a stronger emphasis is given to creating a product/ solution, but as experience with the design cycle progresses, investigating, planning and evaluating will also be addressed. The process is rarely a simple linear progression. It involves critical analysis, reasoning and problem solving.
