<div dir="ltr">HI Gabrielle<div><br></div><div>In the description of Unit 3 on page 21 it says, 'students are engaged in the design and development of a product that addresses a <b>personal,</b> local or global problem .......'</div><div>So if a student designs for his or her self, they are addressing a personal problem. This will probably be what a lot of students choose.</div><div><br></div><div>However, they do need feedback so they will need to find others (I would suggest at least two) of a similar ilk to give feedback throughout the process. This is why they need to consider themselves part of an end-user group as you suggested. By doing that they should be able to find two or more others with similar tastes, needs etc. </div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps - others might have something to say too</div><div><br></div><div>Jacinta</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Feb 10, 2018 at 4:53 PM, Gabriella Verstraeten <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gverstraeten@sfx.vic.edu.au" target="_blank">gverstraeten@sfx.vic.edu.au</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all, I’ve got several students wanting to make garments for themselves as end users. I’m not wrapt with this as I like them to have someone else driving their directions. I’m not sure. They aren’t necessarily the strongest students and
I don’t want to lose their interest. in the new study design, can they make for themselves, by considering themselves a part of an end user group. Is there any clear statement or advice on this that anyone is aware of in the new study design? Your feedback,
advice would be appreciated <u></u><u></u></p>
