Cardboard Furniture Project
Information 21st Skill
We had this project in Engineering where we we were to design a piece of furniture then create it in real life with cardboard. We went through the engineering process creating isometric drawings and such, and then we could use technology to further outline what we were making. We had to use available resources to find information on how to do these things. I was able to collect and use information from class and from technology. The information 21st century skill applies to this assignment.
Me and my partner decided to create a chess table. We drew the plans out on paper and started the engineering process. After our planning we created a model with technology to show what it would look like in 3D. Using the information we gathered and our 3D model, we created in real life by cutting out the correct cardboard parts and assembling them together. I was able to exercise my information skills using a variety of resources this project.
I'm proud of this project because I was able to engineer and create something which I have never really done before. I was also able to use my favorite engineering app "Minecraft". All these reasons are why I wanted to showcase this project.
