Students took part in a PBL challenge to create the perfect toy. The background story for this project was, "You are a toy designer hoping to launch the next great toy that will be popular for years to come. What direction should you take in the design of this toy, and why will children be drawn to it?"
The following is the checklist that the students had to complete before creating their presentation.
Create a presentation with the following elements:
_____ The name of the toy
_____ A hand drawn illustration of the toy
_____ The price of the toy
_____ The name of your Design Corporation (or Design Team)
_____ The targeted age for your toy (3-5 years; 6-8 years; 9-11 years; 12+ years)
_____ A slogan, jingle, or catch phrase for your toy
_____ Persuasive comments convincing adults to purchase the new toy for their child(ren)
_____ Remember: Your poster should look like an ad and should convince adults to
purchase your toy!
