My final design is:

I chose this design because:It includes different places in the street and it also includes a student in the design which would only appeal to the students more!

Evaluation:
* Does your sign meet all the specifications and requirements of the brief? If so, how?Yes, It shows what not to do and where not to do it.
* What is the purpose of your sign? Do you think your sign will help eliminate a problem in the school or street? If so, how?
* What did you do well?Design and put a student into the sign which would be apealing to people.
* What difficulties did you come across while making your sign?
* What can you do next time to improve your project?
Be more organised in my planning and designing.

ISSUE CHOICE AND JUSTIFICATION

You need to think and expand on your answers, one sentence is not sufficient.

What is your issue in our school?
I believe that the problem in the school area (The Street) there are to many people running at times when we have to sit down. Enough of a problem to put up as a sign. I recommend that it will be a good idea if we put up a sign which would stop this hazard from happening.


Who does it affect? People walking by may get bumped.


Why is it happening in our school? To many people playing games while eating.


When does it happen? Mostly beggining of Morning Tea and lunch times.


Where is it happening? In the street mostly.


What needs to happen to prevent this issue? People constantly patrolling the area. As well as putting up signs to make people think before they do.
