ESSAY
Based on the chosen MYP Global Context, scientific and technical
innovation, humans adapt environments to their needs. The reason
why I chose this global context is because, I wanted to invent an item
that might help many people to overcome their problem during rainy
days and thunderstorms. During rainy days and thunderstorms, there
will be many water puddles that can cause shoes to be wet and dirty. In
this situation, it might cause difficulties to students that do not owned
any extra school shoes. The school shoes might not able to dry
overnight. I heard complaints from my friends about this problem. I
gave it a thought and by using my critical and creative thinking skills, I
came with this idea to create this product (shoes protector) to
overcome the problem faced by me, myself and as well as my friends.
