project documentation project management planning hydroponics design for manufacturability fusion 360 (cad software) version controlThe main goal for the project is to collaboratively design and develop components of a modular hydroponic system to improve the overall experience for users, particularly high school students, utilizing the system.
This will involve several different steps for the students, including:
- Collaboratively planning activities tailored to user-centric design using Fusion360.
- Using DFM techniques to ensure the components are manufacturable and cost-effective.
- Managing project documentation using version control to track progress.
- Working collaboratively with the team to improve the overall experience for users utilizing the modular hydroponic system.
By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:
- A user-centric design plan using Fusion360.
- Application of DFM techniques to the modular hydroponic system components.
- Project documentation using version control to track progress.
- Improvements to the overall user experience of the modular hydroponic system.
Final deliverables should include
- All source materials.
- A written report explaining the design process and outcomes.
Mentorship, resources and regular check-ins with students on the progress. Communications throughout the week for working on goals. Create a dedicated team and work together during reflection sessions to work on iterations.
