G10 Tech Class #22

Today we will work on catching up with Project 2 now that connectivity works better.

Please visit last class' bog post for details on Design Stage.



  • Examine the samples in class for reading data using QR codes that are accessed using mobile devices.What do you think?
  • How can you use this?
  • How can you incorporate this to your design?
  • Have you ever used these when you see them in everyday use?
Look, I found this article on the use of 2D codes and mobile devices in everyday life!




For today pls finish the 3D Map (whole school + your tour stop), Design stage and record your progress in your Process Journal.

G10 Tech Class #21

Today, we have better connectivity :-) so you will need to complete your 3D Map. Remember to use  Top-down and Bottom-up strategies to make your 3D map of the whole school as our starting point and then "zoom" into the groups' school tour stops: Project 2 - G10 Tour Stops.


If you stil need to download Google SketchUp, please see me about it so we do not clog the bandwidth.

Please organize your group members' roles to start working on Design stage. 





  • Include a variety of different designs/proposed solutions  (at least 3)
  • All proposed designs have to be accesible using a mobile device
  • Explain every part of each ideas/product solution
  • For explaining your designs, please use different techniques like story boards, sketches, labelled diagrams with explanations, etc.
  • Evaluate each design critically against the design specifications (assess what design specs each design meets or not)
  • Choose one design to build
  • Justify your choice of design and tool/app that you will be using
  • Look at Due Dates for Project 2 and plan accordingly.

  • Don't forget to make your Process Journal entry of the day!
