Plan/Create/Evaluate Part 2x+2=4

Hi Guys

Here are some before and after photos of my website. Enjoy them:

At first the American Copyright Law page looked very simple with no text.

A few minutes later I was much happier with my page. I added a useful link and some text.

The British Copyright Law page was also boring at the beginning

Some clicks later I added a link to the British Copyright Law and I added some text

The main page of the copyright Laws looked Very boring at the beginning, it did not even a title

Then I added a title and a sentence and it looked much better to me

The copyright signs site looked good to me from the beginning on

The only change I made is that I made the inserted video bigger but I did not change the lext or layout

The Main Page looked good to me from the beginning on

Again the only thing I changed was the size of the video

With the German Copyright Law it was the same as with the other copyright law pages

I just added a link and some text

The MLA Citation page also looked very boring when I created it

After I added a video and some text it looked much better

For me the Useful Links site looked perfect to me from the beginning on 

I did not change a single thing

I only changed on thing on the What is Copyright page

I added a photo

I am very happ with my webpage about copyright. My own design specification fits my wbpage perfectly. The webpage is simple, it has some decoration and it is very easy to understand.

I also asked 6 random people if they like my webpage and they think it is good and that it has useful information. And that is what I think too.

Wait for my next POST!!!!!

Copyright made Simple - Investigation Part 2

Hi There,

I made some Research and found several good websites from which I can get information. I also started to build my website but the only thing I have, is the title and the layout.

This is how the site looks like:

Now I am going to add some text to the front page where I discribe what this website is about. After that I am going to add sitemaps, infromation and links to the following websites:

• http://www.staffs.ac.uk/legal/copyright/what_is_copyright/
• http://www.iuscomp.org/gla/statutes/UrhG.htm
• http://www.easybib.com/
• http://www.library.cornell.edu/resrch/citmanage/mla
• http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/
• http://www.corbisimages.com/content/royalty-free/?s_kwcid=corbis&gclid=CM_YgaPT-rkCFcFc3godP1gAFA

These are the websites I am going to add. Maybe I will add more information or other websites with the time.

Wait for my first planning post.

Copyright Investigation Part I

Hi There.

This is the first part of my investigation, the design specification of my site.

Design Specification:

• My Site should look simple with some decoration
• It should have a simple introduction on the front page
• My Site should have several videos and a few links to other sites
• My site should have a white backround

What my site should explain:

• What is copyright
• What can happen if you do not follow copyright rules
• How to do citations
• Links to sites with copyright free music and pictures

My site is supposed to explain copyright in a simple way so that people can understand it.

I am going start researching now and start planing my websites. I will probablly make changes throught my reseearch for websites and information. I am going make a new post once I have made a change.


So wait for next Post!!!!!!! :)

The next Project is starting

Hi guys.

I am starting my next project. The next project is going to be a website about copyright. I have 3 weeks to complete it!!!!!

Wait for my investigation and design spedification!!!!

Carsten

Hi there.

I finished my first Technologay Project!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After I finished my investigation, I had to start the planning part. At the begining of the planing part I looked on a few websites about paper airplanes how a paper aiplane works and afterwards I folded, cut, and taped 6 paper airplanes. I built them to get a feeling about how a paper airplane should be build and to get ideas for parts I could take for mine. Here are some Pictures of them:

The Hurricane Paper Airplane

The Saturn Paper Airplane

A Walkalong Glider

The Ketch Paper Airplane

The Scout Paper Airplane

The Albatross Paper Airplane

The last two paper airplanes gave me idea how to build mine. I did not have to plan long until I made my prototype. I had design for it right in my had so I started to build my prototype. After about 15-20 minutes, the prototype was done. Here are some pictures of it:

Lenght: 24 cm

Lenght of Wings: 26 cm

Width of Wings at Thickest Point: 6 cm

Widht of Body: 2 cm

Height of Body: 4 cm

For the first time building this paper airplane I did pretty well. But after a while I saw that there were some problems. There were 2 major problems. A lack of detail and area of the wings were to small. Becauss of this I started a new airplane, my paper airplane 2.0 which is my final airplane.

Here are all the steps I made until it was done:

At first I drew the body on folded piece of squared paper.

Afterward I cut it out.

This is how it looked after I cut the body out.

Here from a different view.

This is the small wing that contolls the side movements.

Then I cut out the two small wings for the back of the plane. Afterwards I pluged them together and taped them so they would not fall apart.

This is the major wing.

Here the wing from a different angle.

This was the part that took me the longest to build.

It took me about 10 minutes just for this part. 

This is how it looked like at the end. This triangular thing is a reinforcement for the wings because they are so big that they would simply collaps. This triangle is made out of one piece of paper which I folded to make it stronger, so it would hold the wings.

For the prototype I only used a single straight bar to reinforce the wings. The improved design is also giving the front of the wings reinforcment not just the middle.

This is how it looked like when I taped the reinforcment to the wings.

 

After these steps I only had to attach the wings to the airplane. After this I tested it several time and made some small reinforcements. 

My paper airplane is a glider, which means that it is build so that some just drops it and it glides away. My airplane has one special ability. I wanted my airplane to be special so I experimented a little with its flying abilities. 

My Airplane doesn´t glide forwards, it glides backwards!!!!!

Here some picturs of my airplane:

Here are some comparison pictures of the prototype and my final product:

The Sizes of my Plane:

Lenght of Body: 28 cm

Diameter of Body: 2.5

Length of Wings: 29 cm
