Advantages and Limitations of the Design Cycle



What are the advantages and limitations of the design cycle as means for making a product/solution.

There are lots of advantages on using the design cycle, one of them is organizing your plans. When you investigate, design, plan, create and evaluate, you do everything in the right order and everything is organized so the product or solution works in the best way possible. When you investigate, you look for the information that will help you make the design the best one. We looked for lots of quotes, poems and lyrics. And we choose the best one. The one that fits best to you. When we design we kind of create at the same time. We tried to find the best designs and we planed when you do it. When we plan, we have to be creative and came up with strategies to make our final product better. Then we create, when creating we do product solving. That is defined as modern, prototype and product and system. We do whatever is on our design plan. And then, after all this we evaluate. Thats what we are doing now. We have to think about what we did. And evaluate ourselves on what we did. Technology is all about focusing on the design process and using the design cycle as model of thinking. To help students develop their skills on creativity, strategy and artistic skills. The limitations of the design cycle is that we cant do anything else if we are following exactly everything the design tells us to do. Another limitation is that when we use the design cycle and we already have our plan and everything done, when we don't like it we cant go back and change it because that would ruin the process. But it is really useful when planning something like this one. It helps a lot
