Smart Water Bottle Product Design Unit

A full scheme of work for you to try, for free. I hope your students enjoy it!

This outstanding, creative scheme of work covers the full iterative design process where students design and prototype a water bottle that works together with an app.

Inquiry: ‘Making better connections between digital and physical technologies can lead to more innovative, resourceful products.’

Lessons are differentiated with strong cross-curricular (literacy) links that align with the design and technology curriculum. The project requires very few resources and any apps used are free and cloud based. The project can be adapted for different physical and/or digital learning spaces. Included is a digital portfolio which follows the full design process in line with the design and technology curriculum. The portfolio can be delivered digitally, printed or used as a guide. Student/teacher examples are also included.

Lessons include:

♦ Ergonomics and Anthropometrics theory.

♦ Internet of Things theory.

♦ Understanding and writing a design brief.

♦ Improving Ergonomics (optional)

♦ Writing a design specification for a particular user and client.

♦ User-centered design and user research methods.

♦ Ideation strategies.

♦ Sketching techniques: isometric, orthographic.

♦ Prototyping in foam, card or 3D printing (depending on learning space).

♦ UX design and wireframing an app.
