Background: You are graduating this year and are on your way to college, and your
parents want to keep in touch with you while you are away.
Problem: While away at college your parents want to keep in touch with you, but they are
technologically illiterate. They do not want to have to call you all the time, so they would
like to use another method of communication. You need to create step-by-step instructions
on how to send an email, text message, or send a message on Facebook so they can stay in
touch with you. You will also need to tell them how they can check to see if you responded.
Procedure:
1. Describe the all of the steps necessary to:
a. Create an email account/Facebook account
b. Send a message with an attached file
c. Check for a response
2. Include what inputs and processes are necessary to achieve an expected desired output.
3. Include how the feedback loop can help operate the email, mobile phone, or Facebook.
4. Perform a self-test of the instructions.
5. Perform an additional test with another person.
6. Students will create a systems model with their instructions identifying the input,
process, output, and feedback.
