AT THE LEVEL:
Task: Design tests for your finished speakers:
How will you know if they are any good?
Consider field trials, user trials, surveys and practical testing methods.
User trials: controlled testing with users
'User Trials' are normally carried out with a prototype product or used to evaluate a complete or existing product with real users in a relatively controlled environment.
Field trials: 'real life' testing
This method is usually performed with final products or in the evaluation of completed products.
Peer feedback or surveys can also be used.
Describe the tests that you will conduct in detail and how you might use the results to improve your final product.
Task: Carry out tests on you speakers, record the results and suggest improvements based upon these tests.
Actually conduct the tests described above, recored the results, collect data and suggest improvements.

ABOVE THE LEVEL:
Task: Design Improvement.
Using the results data collected above, re-design your project. Create design improvement sketches with a written description of how you could improve the final product if you were to make it again. This would be completed on an A3 sheet of paper and could be a combination of 2D or 3D sketches.
Annotations should reflect what you discovered from the testing.

WELL ABOVE THE LEVEL:
Task: Evaluate your use of the design process
Create a Word.doc and for each stage of the design process (see right) write a refection describing;
what tasks were valuable
what tasks needed more work/detail
what tasks may have been of little use.
what you could have done instead.
