Students Exhibition

Last sunday was the exhibition held by the student which we had taught about creativity and also how to setup an exhibition. We came to see if they actually listened to our tips and informations.

It is a quite small exhibitions because there were only 4 teams or 4 school that have entered. Also was a kind of showoff by the school which have better students, by showing greater designs then others.

This team (Polariod window blinds) kinda have listened, but still made a far too busy display and have the most to show then others, however I find that this team should been disqualified cause this project s not made by the students. During the exhibition was a guy / teacher who have allot to talk about this and actually sounded to me that he has invented this. Also on the table there are actually stuff from science class which there is no way those students could have bought at any local shop, also they have light sensors and everything that is either from the science class or that teacher had ordered.

Also their invention is made far to complex while a certain blinds or curtain would have work just well to, cause there invention has too many parts and too many moving things making it to have a far too high cost. Also there is a electric window blinds which can regulate the amount of lights that can shine through, however it is far to expensive to replace all the windows with and uses allot of chemicals to produce.

The display that they have made got a certain order to it however it annoying to have to turn your head from side to side to read each time cause they have placed all the text in a different angle each time. However it attract you to look at is but not to read it.

This is the Dirty water electricity generator team, this has the most simplistic and cleaned display with everything printed and plastic with the numeral order. The display is good however I would have chosen for a normal foamboard instead of a polystyreen board with all the bubbles showing. On the prototype they should have used a smaller sheet of paper cause now the attention is too much drawn to the sheets and not actually to the prototype, also the prototype almost disappeared cause of the sheet of paper. However for the city to give money to place this in the building might be a far to big play, they might have better change it to a more of a consumer product or ad it with in a product. Like with in a washing machine where water flushes out the water could generate some electricity that is used to was the clothing with.

Mama wake me up alarm clock team ( alarm clock that wakes you without sound but vibrates your cushion, this team is a pretty funny setup cause even though it exist of 4 students I can see it is basically made all by just one cause of his design and drawing style. This kid actually like to make things small instead of getting his hands dirty on project that they could not handle, cause the others made their project far to big while this project staying relatively small and more on consumer based then having to be financed by the city or government. However the text might be very small it is basically good, cause as if you would talk with a lower volume people would listen more carefully. Also love this working model which they basically moved the on and off switch of the vibrating machine to the alarm clock.

Electric bus team, this team just got to many ideas but this is not an invention because they things they have summed up are basically already invented stuff and also basically are designed for this purpose. This team just got too many ideas but eventually as you can see the end result is either their budget or did not have enough time to make a good display. They just took few pieces of cardboard and just drew on it, however got to say they did well with the layout how they drew and wrote things on the board. But it looks too much like they ruffly made this and did not spend much time on making it at all. But basically replace or added stuff to the bus but did not do a full bus design on how the bus would look like, more data on how much energy it would use and how much less exhaust and more.

These two are basically the better one during this exhibition, but the best for me is the alarm clock with the only one placing the display boxes not against the wall making it looks more like an actual exhibition feel and simple poster on the wall, however there is one thing it is showing of their school a bit too much though. However it does fill and attract some more attention then the electric generator.

Eventual each team gets a certificate for attending this exhibition and creativity lesson.

And the better team would get som lego, to play out some of their creativity.

However I doubt most of them actually still do play with Lego most be playing computer games instead.

I bet that this panda would agree with me that his alarm clock is the best and the kid who design this have a very bright future if he want to get into the design world.
