Year 6 the Investigation has 3 steps:

  1. Identify The Problem.  This is the part of the project in which you state: the problem, why we are doing this project, how you will solve the problem, who your product is for and connect your project to an area of interaction.
  2. Develop A Design Brief.  This is the part of the project where you conduct research which will help you solve your problem. You always reference your research.
  3. Formulate A Design Specification.  This is the part of the project that you say what characteristics your final product will have.  You also create tests to evaluate your product.
Follow the structure on the worksheet and you will surely be successful.
