Design Analysing what you found out Each person creates a card with one element (which may be in the design) and list all the potential inputs on one side and outputs on the other side. See if you can join up outputs from one element to make an input to another element. Is there a way to place them to enable these connections to be made?
Design Analysing what you found out Work out your 'limiting factors': list all the things which might limit your design (what problems might you encounter e.g. summer holidays, money, skills).
Design Analysing what you found out Become familiar with vocabulary such as analysis, tool box, input, output.
