The main project in Year 7 involves the students here at BISS following the full MYP Design Cycle and completing the project titled 'Seat It'. It is a project that requires the student to examine what is involved in designing a seat or stool. They must investigate and research all the elements of designing, creating and evaluating a real seat/stool. Have a look below at some of the Seat and Stool images that students have designed and created here at BISS.
