the number zero (0). By : uzair kasmani 7mkr. INVESTIGATION  Identify the Problem

The problem is that we have to make a PowerPoint presentation to the whole class about the number zero.
Explain the Problem === This task will be very difficult to complete since i don't have allot of knowledge about the number zero and where it came from and how it was made. So to me i think this is a difficult task. In this task we will have to create a PowerPoint presentation explaining where the number zero came from and how the new number system has developed and used world wide. ===

Research and Analysis
 * === [] ===

My research has answered 6 questions out of the 10 that are given. I think my research is good because i think the websites i have used are good websites. I have also tried to get the best research i could. The research is reliable because i had checked a few websites but they gave very similar answers. These were one of the websites that looked more professional that's why i chose these websites. Design Brief i am going to create a PowerPoint presentation that explains about the number zero but it will not exceed 10 slides. The PowerPoint will explain about the number zero and why the new number system is better than Roman numerals. I will make the back round not too bright and i'm going to make the text in a darker tone so i think it will be visible to the reader. I will also put in a bibliography to show what sites i went to get my research. i will also explain the answers to my 6 questions in detail so the reader will understand why i have put in these questions. The PowerPoint will be suitable for teaching and just to learn about zero from. Product Specification My product must: >  Test Plan
 * ===1. the number zero came from India===
 * === [] ===
 * ===2. Zero was spread to Europe by the Arabs after they claimed to create it and from there it spread all over the world.===
 * === [] ===
 * === 3.the name of the man who brought the number zero to Europe was Fibonacci ===
 * === 4. Rome, Italy ===
 * === 5. The thing that was wrong with the roman numerals was that it never had a number zero so every number would be different for example: ===
 * === I=1, V=5, X= //10 //, L=50, C=100, D=500, M=1000. I=1, II=2, III=3, IV=4, V=5, VI=6, VII=7, VIII=8, IX=9, X= //10 //, XI=11, XII=12, etc. ===
 * === 6. People were afraid because the number system would start with zero instead of one so they found it quite confusing ===
 * Make the words visible.
 * Not make the power point too boring.
 * Explain about the number zero.
 * Put in a fun fact file.
 * Make it according to my design.
 * Put in nice entrances to all the slides.
 * Put in a bibliography
 * Not make the back round too bright
 * be no more than 10 slides.


 * I will ask my friends to check my PowerPoint and compare it to my product specifications.
 * If they say it doesn't match my product specifications exactly I will ask them what it doesn't match and hopefully I will be able to fix it.
 * After that I will ask my sister and show her my PowerPoint and product specifications and if she says there is something wrong I will go and fix that as well.
 * After all that I will go through it myself and see if I can improve on it such as fixing grammar and spelling mistakes.
 * In overall I will try to make it as accurate as possible according to my design and product specifications.
 * i will provide everything to do the test plan like a computer internet etc..

DESIGN  Pictures of my designs

Analysis of my designs __**Design 1:**__ design 1 has failed to complete all of the design specifications including a fun fact file. The one thing i like about design one is that the back-round color is not too bright so it makes the words easier to see. i have put in a bibliography and made it less than 10 slides. in this design i have also included a few pictures, information about zero and good entrances to all the slides. all the entrances will be the same and the master slide will be used. __**Design 2:**__ design 2 has successfully included all the specifications Unlike design 1 design 2 has a fun fact file and has done every thing that i wanted it to be like. the only problem is that it is quite unclear to read and very messy. but there will be good entrances to all the slides and the master slide will be in included and the text will come first then the pictures will come second. i think this is one of my best designs. __**Design 3:**__ design 3 like design 2 has successfully included all the specification including a fun fact file, bibliography, maximum of 10 slides. there are no problems in this design that i know of so it is the best design to me. unlike design 2 design 3 is more clear. even though there is no color in it it clearly states that the back round will be purple and the text will be red. this design has a master slide and a good animation in each slide

Justification for chosen design the design i choose is design 3.

i choose this design over all the others is because it : and if somebody looks at it they will probably be able to create it similar to my creation. i believe that this is the best design i have done in a long time so that is the main reason i chose it and it completes all the specifications. PLAN

CREATE  Final Product  media type="file" key="uzairkasmaniyr7mkrthenumberzerofinalunit4.swf" width="457" height="457"

Changes made to the original Design The changes I made to the original design was that I changed fun fact file and just made it facts. Changes made to the original Plan  The original plan was to upload the final product last week Saturday but I finished the product early so I uploaded it on Thursday last week (6/05/13). EVALUATE  Results of tests my results were successful and i was happy about that. I had completed almost all of the tests. I have made a table to show how the tests went with my first draft of my final product:


 * ===test=== || ===how many times was it successful [ how many people said that it was successful]=== || ===how many times was it unsuccessful===

[ how many people said that it was unsuccessful]
|| ===how many people were asked=== || All the stuff that was wrong I think I have fixed them all Recommendations for improvement

In the future I think I could improve by adding one slide talking about how they used roman numerals in math and how the number zero has helped and know is used world widely. I also could have created a better back round using slide master now that I know how to use it. I know which areas I could improve on and I will do better next time if someone asks me. Self-evaluation of your execution of the design cycle The design cycle was a good part of my project because it helped me get through the project more quickly. It also helped me by helping to keep myself organized which helped me do a better project. I wouldn't change anything to the design cycle because of these things. Finally I think because of the design cycle I will get better grades. Next time I will try to do more work at home rather than school. I will also try to put in more quality in my three designs. Overall I think that I did good in this unit.
