Have a great summer Year 11! But before we go let's take a look at stop motion animation.

What is it? Stop motion (also known as stop action) is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own. The object is moved in small increments between individually photographed frames, creating the illusion of movement when the series of frames is played as a continuous sequence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_motion 

Where can I find some examples to gather information, inspiration, and ideas?    Smash!ng Apps http://www.smashingapps.com/2009/06/15/21-stunning-examples-of-creatively-done-stop-motion-animations.html

Can I see another example?  Sure http://mildlymelancholy.blogspot.com/search/label/video

How can I do it?  Wiki How  http://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-Stop-Motion-Animation

When does it need to be finished?  Tomorrow end of class.

Let's see if we can get one or two of these in the end of year assembly!

June 22

I'm honoured that you chose me to speak at your graduation ceremony. Happy Graduation Year 11.

June 20, 22-MYP Graduation, 24-National Holiday

This is it Year 11.  We have come to the end of the course and you are nearing the end of your MYP studies. Hand in everything by the end of class today.

Thank you.

Wednesday is your MYP Graduation (hooray!), Thursday is a national holiday (even more hoorays), and Friday most of you will journey to London on the Globe Theatre trip.  It's been a great year and I wish you blue skies and fair winds as you sail into the future.

I'll miss you Year 11, come and visit next year.

Here is our "found time".  Work hard.

Learning objective: carry out tests to evaluate the product/solution against the design specification; evaluate their perforance at each stage of the design cyucle and suggest ways in which their perforance could be improved; evaluate the impact of the product/solution on individuals and/or society.

Year 11, please finish creating your e-portfolio.  Then move on to the Evaluate (Criterion E) maximum 6

1.  Show your e-portfolio to at least 5 people (you can include adults),

2.  Ask them to complete the test that you created in the Investigate,

3.  Analyse feedback.  Write a paragraph evaluating  the feedback you receive.  Then suggest ways that you could improve your product based on these findings,

4.  Evaluate your performance at each stage of the design cycle (Investigate, Design, Plan, Create) AND suggest ways that you could improve your performance,

5.  Write a paragraph in which you evaluate the impact of your product/solution on OIS (Did you meet your unit goal?  Relate this paragraph back to the Area of Interaction that you used in your "Identify the Problem" in the Investigation).

Learning objective: carry out tests to evaluate the product/solution against the design specification; evaluate their perforance at each stage of the design cyucle and suggest ways in which their perforance could be improved; evaluate the impact of the product/solution on individuals and/or society.
