Simplicity:
This is a very important factor to my project and this animated flip book has all the requirements and has an extremely high level of simplicity. This flip book is a great way to reach my goal of explaining the Design Cycle to a 6th grader because it is very fun to use and very entertaining. Even though the flip book is very simple to use, it has a difficult part because you actually have to draw the things out in the computer and depending on the idea, it may be very easy or very difficult.


Text Choices:
Text choices is also a very important measurement because it seems that it would be easier to explain to a 6th grader if the text would be some kind of attention-grabber, but the text choices in the flipbook are very minimum. In the flipbook, you personally have to create your own text (font) and it is very difficult to complete it succesfully. It is because of this that I decided to give it a score of 3.


Character Choices:
In the flipbook, you don't really choose your charcters, but you actually draw them out. This could have a positive side and a negative side depending if you are a good drawer. I didn't really like this because it seems to complicated and I don't have the skills to make my own characters, so I decided to give it a score of 2. Having the correct characters is essential because it is what the 6th grader's attention should go to so I need a program that has creative characters.


Creativity:
The creativity level that corresponds to the flipbook is high and that is something that I need in order to complete my final product. What makes the flipbook so creative is that you get to do everything your own way and everything is pretty much personalized to your wanting. I like this because this way I get to create what I have planned out in my mind, but at the same time it is very difficult to use and because of this, I decided to give it a score of 4.
