Criterion B-Developing Ideas

Design brief: I moved from Stage 1 to Stage 2 to develop ideas for my

leaflet and the layout of my leaflet. I also chose a certain topic that I want
to focus on. I chose global warming. I also need to move to this stage to
develop ideas for the final product. I will also create a mindmap and some
sketches.
My product is a leaflet that I chose at criteria A to be appealing to the
target audience.
The leaflet needs to contain an environmental issue because our purpose of
the unit is to spread awareness.
The leaflet is for school community so I need to use simple and informative
words.
This product is perfectly safe because its just a leaflet it doesnt harm
anyone.
The product should be size just good to see.
The function of this leaflet is to spread awareness.

Aspect

Requirements

Aesthetics (Consider appearance,

style, color, shape/form, texture,
pattern, finish, layout)

I will keep some good pictures on

global warming and also some good
borders. It will have short
sentences and simple language.

Cost (Is there a maximum cost? Is

There is not much material cost as

this a material cost/time

cost/selling cost?)

we are just printing leaflets. There

will only be a cost of about 100-200
rupees for the ink.

Customer (Who it is for? What is

the target users age, gender, socioeconomic background?)

These leaflets are for the whole

school community.

Function (What it must do? What is

its purpose? Where will the product
be stored? How easily can it be
used/maintained?)

We are making these leaflets to

spread awareness about global
environmental changes.

Content(Writing the content)

We will explain about the causes and

effects of various global
environmental changes.

Deciding on the design and images Proofreading and checking

We will print and paste many images

of global environmental changes.

Safety (What safety factors need

to be incorporated into the design?)

There is no requirement of safety as

it is a leaflet.

Accessibility(where it will be
available-Online, in the form of
poster, website etc)

It will be accessible in the form of a

leaflet.

Format(suggest how the leaflet will

be designed)

It will be a trifold a will have some

images.

Manufacturing (What resources are

available? Are there limitations as
to how this can be created? How
much time is needed to create the
design?)

I will use Piktochart to create this

and I will need 3-4 design classes.

Mind Map 1

In my mind map, I wrote the definition of global warming, the causes, and
effects.

Mind Map 2

In this mind map, I added a few points on causes and effects of global
warming, and I wrote some ways to stop global warming.

Global Warming
Leaflet about global warming.

Earth is in trouble

What is global

warming
A gradual increase in the
overall temperature of the
earth's atmosphere
generally attributed to the
greenhouse effect caused
by increased levels of
carbon dioxide, CFCs, and
other pollutants.

Causes of global
warming...

Effects of global
warming

Global warming is
projected to have a
number of effects on the
oceans. Ongoing effects
include rising sea levels
due to thermal expansion
and melting of glaciers and
ice sheets, and warming
of the ocean surface,
leading to increased
temperature stratification.

Global warming is caused

because humans are
releasing carbon-dioxide
into the atmosphere and
also cutting down trees
which is increasing the
amount of carbondioxide,making the earth
warmer.

Reason
I made this leaflet to spread awareness on global warming. I am making
this kind of leaflet because it has short sentences that are easy to
understand and also has some good images to show the damage caused
by global warming. It is also very informative and interesting.

Justify
I think I deserve 7-8, because my leaflet is very interesting and
attractive. I also tried my best, and I am sure the school community
will benefit from my leaflet on global warming.
