(The Number Zero)  By : (Maxford Mlilima)   INVESTIGATION   Identify the Problem  Its that i don't know much about Zero and its hard to know what the History of Zero is all about and i will have to research a lot.

Explain the Problem the problem is that people don't know what Zero has done for us but i think they need to know because Zero is and important number out of them all but they way people look at Zero is a bad number but its a good number. Research and Analysis

Design Brief my design is to make a PowerPoint prevention to answer all the question of Task 4.It has to be for both because ti will be much better and i will do good because i had research about what makes a good PowerPoint.Its going to be about Zero and how Zero have done so much for us and how people don't know what zero has done.It going to be used to teach little like kind in year 4. Product Specification My product must: Test Plan DESIGN  Pictures of my designs

 * have to have not too much picture cause then it will be to little of information
 * Has to be easy to read
 * it has to be a very easy for Everyone
 * It have to have eye caching colors

 * But it should not be too easy because then the big kids will think its boring
 * must be easy to read: I will ask my brothers to read it and tell me if it is hard
 * has to answer or question: Show them the Question and ask them if it answers all the questions
 * lots of research: i will show them the research
 * have to make sense: i will show hem and they have to read it if it makes senses
 * has to be colorful: Ask my little brother
 * has to be creative: Ask some one like my dad
 * have to have about 10: I will make sure it has 10 slides
 * have to have not too much picture cause then it will be to little of information: i will check how much my brother gets boring so i know its too much information
 * Has to be easy to read: it has to be easy even for little kids like in year
 * It have to have eye caching colors: Well i will look at the slides and see if it is eye caching
 * It has to tell you good information and the kid have to read it with no problem: you read it to yourself and see if it has good info then go to a little person and see if it is
 * But it should not be too easy because then the big kids will think its boring: it has to be creative so it should not be boring and that's why you must have pictures.

Analysis of my designs Design 1: i think design 1 has information but not enough it show at is going to be on the slide but it does not tell you what you are going to do but if you had gave your design to some one they would not know what to do at all so that means whats the point of the design if it does not tell you what is going to be on the slide. Design 2:i think design 2 is the most not detail i have ever made because it just says information and it does not say anything about animations or the color all it says things like information and hyperlinks Design 3:i think out of all the design i think design 3 is the best it tell you very thing you need to know like your animation then if you give anyone they might know how to make your product again with out you tell them that the is animations not just saying that the is no animations at all they is but you put that they is animations. Justification for chosen design I chose design 3 because it has lots of information instead of just say they had Zero back then because then it would be boring but why did Zero come that has lots of information.So design 3 is the most detailed but is going to be easy because all you have to do is to look at your design and see what you have to do.

CREATE  Final Product media type="file" key="History of Zero by Maxford Mlilima 2.swf" width="684" height="684" SCREEN SHOT Changes made to the original Design I did a lot of stuff which i changed a lot like adding more affects and i had to make some hyperlinks. Changes made to the original Plan  i made it more better and i followed my plan properly and even a Gurva said i followed my Plan but not all of it and he even said it was good and not boring. EVALUATE  Results of tests
 * must be easy to read: it was easy to read and it was good because it had less information
 * has to answer or question: It was in my own words and it was also easy to read and also it was answering the question
 * lots of research: It had less information and that is why it was good.
 * have to make sense: it made sense i checked it and checked it and it made good sense.
 * has to be creative:its very creative because it has lots of affects.
 * Has to be easy to read: its very easy to read and they are very little hard words in the Power Point.
 * It have to have eye caching colors: it has eye catching color which look cool.
 * But it should not be too easy because then the big kids will think its boring: its very creative and some of my friends that think its easy and that is good and easy.

Recommendations for improvement
 * i could work on the hyperlinks properly.
 * i could make sure i followed the plan because i changed my plan a lot things like effects.
 * i could have done my Power Point more creative like putting pictures.
 * i could have put more then 2 picture to make it better
 * i could have added more information and made it more colorful
 * i could have put more effort in every thing

Self-evaluation of your execution of the design cycle  I think i did not do well because i was in a rush and i was struggling a little and i think i did not do well because i was talking too much and maybe if i did not talk.I did not follow my design at all i put too much animations then i thought i was gonna put.i got other people to see my design and see my power point and they said it was good but it did not look like my design at all.I made lots of Changes but most i did the animations thing like changing the background i changed my design because when i started to follow it, it began to be boring and i did not want it to be boring. Next time will put more information in my design and i will put more colors.
