This document outlines an assignment for students to learn about the design process through developing a hanging mobile display for a Lego miniature character. It provides instructions for a 4-part Design Process Journal where students will research their character, generate design ideas from keywords, investigate hanging mobiles, and compile their work. Students will demonstrate understanding of tasks, provide substantive content, and show creativity. Their process journal and final portfolio will be assessed based on completeness, clarity, and workmanship.
For level 1 (year 1) and Level 2 (year 3) this is a rubric that you can use to grade, give feedback the teach students and teachers alike the Design Cycle material that can support student and teacher growth and understanding.
An introduction to the MYP Personal Project. Includes a visual representation of the year and the Personal Project cycle. Also, advice on drafting highly challenging goals based on the MYP Personal Project Teacher Support Materials.

Introduction
Objectives of Assignment
The objectives of this assignment;
1. To learn the design process and design components such as sketching, drawing conventions,
observation, investigation and production of presentation.
Learning Outcomes of this Project
On successful completion of this subject, students will be able to demonstrate the following:
4. To be familiar with the design process, investigation, observation and interpretation in simple projects
The Design Process Journal is an
assignment for students to become familiar
with “design process”. This design process
will contribute to the final project “Project
2B – The Lego Miniature Mobile Display”.
Before starting any design works, a
designer will need to understand their
client and the client needs. In this situation
the client is the Lego miniature and his
needs to have a hanging mobile display.
The “process” basically will require the
students to understand the Lego miniature
character thoroughly to come up with
interesting ideas. Through the Design
Process Journal, students will develop and
explore ideas for The Lego Miniature
Mobile Display.

Tasks - Methodology
Individually students are required to prepare and develop sketches of ideas and research about their Lego
miniatures. The student’s tasks are divided into 4 parts and are detailed as follows;
1. DPJ 01 Understand your Lego Miniature Toy Character (INVESTIGATION & EXPLORATION)
- Students are required to do a thorough research on their Lego miniature toy character and
tabulate all the important information. To conclude their findings students are required to
create a Magazine Cover that feature the toy character.
2. DPJ 02 Key Words and Ideas Generating (TRANSFORMATION & EXPLORATION)
- From the research in DPJ 01, students are required to select 2-3 adjective keywords and for
each keyword students are required to transform and translate it to design elements and
principles such as lines, shapes and forms. For each key word idea, students will then have to
create a geometric abstract art work to conclude their exploration and understanding.
3. DPJ 03 What Makes a Good Hanging Mobile & Initial Ideas (EXPLORATION)
- Students are required to investigate and understand what is a hanging mobile is and what
makes a good hanging mobile. Students are required to present their findings as a pin up
presentation and addition to that they are required to present their 3 proposals of their hanging
mobile idea (initial ideas) during tutorial session.
4. DPJ 04 The Design Process Journal Compilation and Hardcopy Portfolio
- Students are required to submit a folder which will include all works and sketches of their
Projects, Design Process Journal, activities and worksheets etc. An additional component is
the Hardcopy Portfolio. An example will be shown in class.
Each DPJ task will be informed and posted on FB page and TIMES. Please follow the requirements.
