Name: Ken

Scenario: You have been hired as a ​PRODUCT DEVELOPER​ by a company that is trying to create a means of
cheaply and efficiently filtering fine air particles. Your company is in Chiang Mai so you will work using local
materials.

Understanding how systems interact can inspire the creation of solutions to the consequences of local and global environmental issues.

Task Description
G​OAL To create an air filtration device which is suited to the needs of your intended clients.

R​OLE You will be the product researcher, designer, builder, and tester. You will also be the expert on human physiology and the
principles of physics inherent to air filtration.

A​UDIENCE Your clients are members of the APIS community.

S​ITUATION You are in the first few weeks of a new job as a PRODUCT DEVELOPER.

P​RODUCT 1. A completed and functional Air Filtration Device

2. An assessment of your Scientific Knowledge
3. Your Product Development Journal
1. A pitch/poster to the APIS community promoting your product

S​TANDARDS You will be assessed against MYP Design Criteria A - D, MYP Science Criteria A + D, and MYP IDU Criteria A - D.

Task Clarification:

Student Grade/Justification: I think I got a 6 because the Teacher Grade/Justification:

information both individual and with my partner are well
present. Also I think we develop goods design specifications
and range of ideas with annotation. Also on the chosen
design it is clear graded to the design specification but some
are unpredictable so we had to guess. I think the planning
drawing is easy to understand with needed materials and
tools.
Excellent work, Ken. You have done a great job in this section. Your
Design Specifications were phenomenal. The two I highlighted were
clearly measurable. Your design ideas were clear and well annotated.
Your Chosen Design included justification based on each of the specs.
Your final section I can’t give you full credit for since the pictures are
clearly Cici’s. But you did a good job listing the requirements. 7654 = 6

class.

Noise concerns​ - The design will be turned off if the student voice is more quiet than the air filtration. We gave this a ​3​ because we can’t predict
weather the design will make noise or not.
Safety​ - The design is 100% safe. We gave this a ​4​ because our design will be 100% safe when it is finish.
Results​ - After using the air filter, the AQI number of the room is around 75 PTM. We gave this a ​3​ because we are sure the AQI in the room should
be around 75 PTM
Looks​ - The appearance of design look good but still can be better. We gave this one a ​3​ because we can’t predict weather how it will look when it
is finish so we think there would be room for improvement.
Space​ - The design fits the area where he want it to be. We gave this a ​4​ because we will put it where he want it perfectly.
Function​ - The air filtration is able to work and filter 30-50% of the air in the class. We gave this a ​2​ because we can’t predict weather the product
can filter how many % of the class.

CLIENT INTERVIEW #2
 ● Are you ok with the design?
Mr. Dan is ok with the design and how are we planning to use it.
● Any suggestion about the design?
There wasn’t any suggestion because he think the design
already look great.
