Students working on Tinkercad and #Makerfun Challenges with Brilliant Labs

Tasks & Assignments ... Be sure to go through attached PowerPoint lesson on Market Research [PDF Version included if you can't open the PowerPoint presentation].

Task #1 – Create a New Business Model Cnvas

Assignment #4a – Market Research Questions

Submission... I have included both the Word and PDF versions of the task and assignment.  For those who have access to Word (can be downloaded as an App), download the each and complete. Save it as ‘Your Name – Task/Assignment #’ and attach to an email sent to Ashley.Hallihan@nbed.nb.ca .  For those who do not have access to Word, use the PDF version.  Using notes or directly in your email, answer the questions and send each through email.

Reminders…  Your new business venture should reflect our current situation.  We will begin creating our business plan next week by conducting market research.  This week your business model canvas needs to reflect an idea that would be possible as an online business.  This could include a product/service that could be viewed online, purchased through e-transfer and delivered at a set location while abiding by our social distancing rules.  This idea may involve physical fitness, food demands, mental wellness or social entrepreneurship (a later lesson where you are doing something for the greater good and not concerned with making a profit).  There must be 2 points per section of your business model canvas.  For those using word, you should be able to click on the section and type your responses.

            Your market research assignment is to make a survey to ask your potential customers. The goal is to create a survey and get a minimum of 50 responses.  You should have between 5 and 12 questions that will help you gather valuable insights into your business idea.  Think about the different questions you might ask regarding factors such as price, features, buying habits, etc… Review the Market Research PowerPoint to get some ideas.  Submit your questions along with possible answers (if multiple choice form) and email them to Ashley.Hallihan@nbed.nb.ca.  I will review your questions and provide some feedback before we move on to Assignment #4b - Creating an Online Survey.  I will provide instructions on how to create an online survey that you can share next week.  Please don’t share your survey before I have provided feedback on your questions.

Note...  I have decided to change the submission days to be anytime up to Sunday.  I will also be posting some highlights from the previous week on Wednesday’s so you can see your classmates work as well.  I do plan to respond to your work by providing you some feedback through email.  Be sure to also check out the BHS Physical Education/Wellness post as it is important to maintain your physical and mental well-being during these times (on Facebook Wellness group) as well as Mr. Strurgeon’s Teacher page.  Feel free to reach out to me through email anytime as I am here to assist you in your learning.

Students & Parents,

Our first week with Learning at Home is coming to a close and I am hoping everyone is doing well with this learning adjustment.  I am planning to make phone calls home today to chat with my homeroom students.  This is an opportunity to seek extra help whether it be academically and/or their social well being.  I want to remind students that the weekly lessons are designed for students to submit their participation of the course curriculum through email [Ashley.Hallihan@nbed.nb.ca].  These weekly tasks will not be evaluated but will allow me to provide feedback to their learning.  The lessons will be posted on Monday's and work needs to be submitted by Friday's.  Here is a summary of what work was being done this week in each of my high school classes...

Coop (MAKE) 120 - Create a Tinkercad Challenge for designing a keychain... send screenshot of design along with attaching the STL file.  If you had difficulty working with Tinkercad at home, an alternative was to go to the Brilliant Labs #Makerfun activities and submit screenshots from each of the 3 categories.

OP 110 - Participate in the Scavenger Hunt Challenge by picking a level you are comfortable with and submitting the group of photos by tagging @outdoorpursuits2020 on Instagram.  If you don't have an Instagram account, group and submit through email.

Entrepreneurship 110 -  Complete assignment on Online versus Retail Shopping [was given this back in early March] as well as the assignment on How is Covid-19 is affecting business?  Begin to think about a new business venture given our current situation.

NOTE - Scroll down on this teacher page for the post that was given on Monday with more details along with a link to a video explanation.  The District has stressed that 'Less is More' and I trust you will find that these lessons are designed to be just that along with providing an opportunity to extend your learning in each of the subject area.  If there are any questions be sure to contact me through email.

It has been decided that you will be foucsing on Math, Literacy, Science and Social Studies for your daily 2 hours of online learning to go along with 30 minutes of reading and 30 minutes of physical activity.  However, I encourage all of you to continue to explore and develop your technology skills.  I have posted 4 suggested learning opportunities on the BHS MakerSpace page... see link below.  Brilliant Labs has been sharing daily challenges, Engineering Society of NB has been doing weekly challenges, Kids Code has lots of opportunities for sessions and Scratch at Home is an opportunity to work on your coding skills.  

Feel free to reach out to me if you are looking for activities to do with technology... email Ashley.Hallihan@nbed.nb.ca

I will continue to add resources to the MakerSpace webpage and follow along on our BHS ICE Centre Facebook page.  Share your creations and have fun!
