Design Focused Evaluation

Hello! Today I'm going to explain to you what design focused evaluation means.

Design focused evaluation is when someone looks very closely at something they've made to see if it's good or not. Think of it like making a cake and then checking to make sure it tastes good and looks nice before giving it to someone to eat.

Design focused evaluation can be used for lots of things that people make, like buildings, books, or even computer apps! It helps the people who made those things know if they did a good job and if there are any things they can do better next time.

When someone does a design focused evaluation, they might look at things like how easy the thing is to use, if it looks pretty, or if it's helpful in some way. They might also ask other people to try using the thing and ask them what they think about it.

So, in summary, design focused evaluation is when someone looks closely at something they made to see if it's good, just like checking a cake before giving it to someone to eat. It helps makers know if they did a good job and how they can do better next time.
