The
Process: Please follow the steps below, and check off each one when
the step is complete.
o Step 1- Research - Go to the y drive, and then go in
your class folder, then double click on the Recycled
Furniture Questions. Please copy and paste the slides
into your PowerPoint.
o Step 2- Brainstorm – Come up with (and hand sketch)
one potential idea per a person in your group. For a
group of 2 there should be 2 sketches, for a group of
3 there should be 3 sketches. Please include general
notes on ALL sketches (such as sizes, materials used,
and any unclear building issues)
o Step 3- Plan – Create a solid model of the one of your
ideas. Make sure to then create a multiview Drawing
of your model. Your multiview drawing should include
enough sizes to produce your design (views that
should be included on your multiview drawing should
be a Front, Top, Right side, and Isometric views).
o Step 4- Build – Create your design according to
your blueprints! Make sure that all sizes match up,
and that it looks visually appealing. If there is tons of
tape, or parts of it are falling apart that is not visually
appealing!
o Step 5- Test - On the date (that will be mentioned in
class, make sure to check the board for the testing
date!) that we are testing your object should be
completely constructed, there is no tweeking of your
object whatsoever!
o Step 6- Reflection – In your webpage write a 2
paragraph essay on the process of what you have
done in class. How could you have improved the
 experience, and what would you have done
differently to improve the results of your design.

me! It’s easier to ask first then ask last!
