Instruction
You will have to analyze a plastic-containing phone case for this course. If you don't have one you can borrow an old one from someone you know. You can also buy a new discounted/discontinued cases for less than $10.00. It doesn't have to fit your phone.
One of the challenges of the case project is that the "new" case has to maintain the basic features of the "old" case. For example, if the old case protects against breakage when dropped, the new case has to provide protection against breakage.
