Interaction design

Cities are carefully crafted. Most city planners and engineers would agree that, "Design is about creating spaces for people to enjoy and of course, creating moments where you elevate the spirit, but 'design for good ' is figuring out a program that not only creates better spaces, but creates jobs, new industry and raises the conversation about the way we build" (Cameron Sinclair). Although there are plenty of public places around Santa Clarita worth mentioning, the one that stands out the most…

an outside force and an object at rest will remain at rest unless of course, acted upon an outside force. Newton’s second law states that the force of an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. The third law of motion is the law of interaction. This states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. For every actions force there is an equal force of action in the opposite direction. It took Galileo, Copernicus, and Kepler to prove Aristotle 's theory wrong. On the…

The four fundamental forces have been around before mankind. These forces shape the way we live and interact with the objects around us on a daily basis. These forces are so important, they are in existence throughout the entire universe. Black holes, the formation of planets, galaxies and stars are all because of gravity and these same celestial bodies have their own electromagnetic forces and the strong and weak nuclear forces are. Since everything in the universe is made of atoms, there is…

Abstract For a long time, design studio has been a core subject of architectural design education at all higher-learning institutions in Egypt. This type of education is based on practice and imitation; students solve problems and do projects through a process of thinking and doing. This education system, which is based on critique, attempts to increase the self-criticizing ability of students by providing continuous criticisms that help them manage their own projects and face future challenges.…

Mechanical Engineering According to The Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS), Mechanical Engineers are knowledgeable in math, physics, technology, and design. In addition to technical skills learned in school, the BLS states that creativity, communication skills, critical thinking and problem solving skill are crucial (“Mechanical”). In addition, Onet Online, a website supported by the United States Department of Labor, describes the skills of Mechanical Engineers as listening skills, math…

ASSESSMENT TASK 1: Q1 A1: Organisational design is the way by which an organisation should be structured and operated by its member, it’s both a plan and process. Q2 A2: Element One: Structure: It’s the main part of organisational design. It shows us how the structure is in an organisation is. E.g. in flat organisation the structure is very small. Element Two: Task: Its helps organisation to achieve its goal on time. Task is different in each level, e.g. workers have a task to complete the…
