    The virtual design project aimed to create a locker organizer to help students keep their locker organized. The team of 3 students went through the design process in 6 steps: 1) defining the problem of messy lockers, 2) brainstorming concepts like magnetic holders and shelves, 3) choosing a solution using a decision matrix, 4) constructing a cardboard prototype, 5) evaluating how well it met constraints and would make users happy, and 6) presenting the final solution. They created technical drawings, an exploded assembly video, and would add handles and modularity for the real product. Overall, the project was a learning experience in virtual collaboration and design.

    Virtual Design Project:

    Locker Organizer
    Team 9: Julia, Alice, and Alex

    Design Process
    Includes Gantt
    chart and
    Team Norms

    Step 1:
    Define the
    Problem

    Includes
    Decision
    Matrix

    Step 2:
    Generating
    Concepts

    Step 3:
    Develop a
    Solution

    Step 4:
    Construct &
    Test Prototype

    Step 5:
    Evaluate
    Solution

    Step 6:
    Present

    Step 1:
    Define the
    Problem

    We chose to do the Locker


    Organizer

    The Problem: school lockers


    are a mess and students are
    always losing materials

    Constraints:

    fits in locker, easy to install, hold


    at least 5 locker items, items must
    be modeled, no flammable
    materials

    Step 2:
    Generating
    Concepts

    We did research on the size of


    the different items chose to put
    in the locker

    Brainstorm:

    magnetic holders

    modular

    hanging shelves - square vs.


    slanted

    Research
    Normal high school lockers are made
    of sheet metal - in the future, lockers
    may be made of HDPE because of its
    durability.
    The items we chose to put in our
    locker: books, binders, pencil,
    calculator, backpack, lunchbox

    Step 3:
    Develop a
    Solution

    We used a decision matrix to


    choose which design fit most
    of our constraints and
    standards

    reusability, easy assembly,


    organization, ability to hold items,
    testability

    We chose an upright pencil


    holder and a hanging shelves
    design

    Original Ideas
    These are some of the design ideas
    we came up with for the locker
    organizer.

    Decision Matrix

    Step 4:
    Construct & Test
    a Prototype

    We built our design out of


    cardboard, clear line, duct tape,
    fabric, and hot glue

    In reality, if we were to develop


    the product:

    sturdy fabric (probably polyester)

    hard plastic shelves

    Technical Drawings & Virtual Model vs. Physical Model

    Step 5:
    Evaluate the
    Solution

    How well does your design


    meet the constraints?

    Would this design logically


    make the customer happy?

    Would you change anything


    about your design?

    handles & modular

    Assembly and Presentation

    Step 5:
    Evaluate the
    Project

    Overall, how did this project


    go for you and your
    teammates?

    What would you do


    differently if you got a re-do?

    Gantt chart & Team Norms

    What skills/lessons did you


    learn?

    Virtual communication

    Step 6:
    Present the
    Solution

    Questions?
