One of the primary challenges of this project is choosing a story that explores the nature and/or outcomes of change. This is the heart of the Human Ingenuity link.

A second primary challenge is to tell your story effectively and coherently.

Each step of the design cycle below includes various tasks. These tasks should be completed within a single word document entitled "Your Name - animation". Tasks that are common to the entire group need only be recorded on one person's document. The other group members can write "see X's document" on their document so the assessor can find the work appropriately.

Follow the links below to each section of the task. INVESTIGATE DESIGN PLAN CREATE EVALUATE
