The first idea that I was to make a comic or flip book. Honestly this one was a little to difficult to understand at first. I like how it gives us the options on the background and how we want our book to look like. They also give us the options for characters and props. It has nice explanation on how to use it but i sort of struggled when i first go on. It doesn't give us enough options to pick the structure of the page and it has a few basic effects. It also gives us options to type in text and thoughts. This might be able to keep a 6th grader preoccupied and be able to learn the design cycle.

This ideawas to create a flip book. As soon as I opened the page it seemed really easy to unand what exactly to do. It goes straight to the point, and it doesn't need a tutorial to explain any detail about using this product. You have a lot more freedom in this product to create how you want to teach the student. It has less structure but you can do whatever you like

My task is to create a product to teach a 6th grader the design cycle. I will reflect daily and compare two ideas that i have and find out which product will help me best in teaching a young student.

This is important because informing young students on the design cycle will better prepare them when faced with a problem in the future. Using the products above will help me teach the student. Soon i will compare them in depth.

Which of the two products above will better catch the students attention and help them truly grasp the whole concept of the design cycle. One is a comic strip online while the other is a flip book online. Both of these are both entertaining.
