Year 11 STUCTURED PROJECT
DEFINING THE PROBLEM You have been employed by a local children’s day care centre to develop a program that will be implemented on their computers for students to use during free time or when they have been given permission for good behavior. This software should be suitable for students within the age bracket of 3-5. Remember suitable social and ethical issues should be employed when generating ideas. The software should also contain relevant help that will be suitable for children and the adult supervisors.
Identification of Problem After a number of weeks of uncertainty of how to approach the problem, I decided that I needed to answer a number of questions to help me decide, they include? 1. 2. 3. 4.
Will I have enough time to complete the project? Do I have the skills to complete the desired project? Will the program be feasible? What are the main objectives of the project?
I think the main thing that had to be answered was whether the limited amount of Visual Basic skills and knowledge I possessed would allow me to complete a robust program that would satisfy the needs of the user. Selecting an appropriate game would have a great deal of influence upon these factors. After answering these questions I have come up with a list of objectives which will be met:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Create relevance to the 3 – 5 year old age bracket Take into account social and ethical issues Contain relevant help Development of games to reach out to its target market Games to contain both entertainment and educational value Maintain consistency in screen elements Make it reach out and attract the age bracket Developed by Logan Tran Yr11 PMHS 2008

8. Create a software solution that is easy to use and efficient

Year 11 STUCTURED PROJECT
Research/communication done with others about proposed idea: This stage of my development cycle was done without the knowledge of actually doing it.
I have been able to identify four ways in which communication for the proposed idea was carried out: 1. Through peers over the internet 2. through family and friends in development stage (interpreting the program through Microsoft Visual Basic when developing the program) 3. Creating prototypes examining how the people will react to the program 4. Researching similar products
At the time of receiving feedback from users, I created lists of suggestions. Listed below are some of these suggestions: • • • •
Change of background colours Changing fonts Change font from Times New Roman, to MS Sans Serif Changing view and design of the way the set alarm time and date and selected music file are displayed to user

MY COMMENTS ON THE PROGRAM With the consideration of all my users feedback , I have found the program is not as robust as I thought as I didn’t take into consideration the negative numbers data validation which should have been obvious, I am happy with the overall result given just a prehistorical language to use, If done again I would most defiantly rethink the layout as even though it is great, I think it could be more efficient and user friendly such as the option to exit at any time. I have taken into consideration many of my users feed back and have incorporated their ideas into my Developed by Logan Tran Yr11 PMHS 2008
