Electric Fan Blog Post 3: Create and Improve

Reflect on your prototype. What were some strengths? What needs refinements?

Strengths:

  • It looks beautiful
  • It is safer for young people doing sports to use since the battery is not exposed and there are no sharp edges
  • It produces both wind and cold water (refreshing)
  • accessible
  • easy to operate

Refinements:

  • not enough wind power
  • battery is not environmentally friendly
  • clean the bottle to make the water cleaner

 

Outline the feedback you received from peers. Share some changes you will make as a result of this feedback.

  1. Above are the feedback that I received from Valeriana and Catherine
  2. Changes that I will make if I had more time and access to more materials:
  • I will change the fan so that it generates enough wind power
  • I will change the battery to make it more environmentally friendly
  • I will wash and rinse the bottle to make the water even cleaner to use

 

Include photos of your prototype and details of the feedback received.

Detailed feedback:

  1. If I had the time, I would have changed the fan into a bigger size so that it will generate more wind power
  2. If I had the time and the materials, I would have switched the battery to a solar panel to make it more environmentally friendly
  3. If I had the time, I would have rinsed the bottle to make the water even cleaner to use
