Learning Area: Science and Technology

Design and Technology > LEVEL 10





Subject Focus: Design, entrepreneurship and innovation

1] I use analytical skills to draw together my learning to provide insightful discussion on global location choices made and the modern manufacturing practice selected, citing clear examples that support my argument.
LEARNING TO KNOW
2] I can demonstrate through my projects and product solutions the application of environmentally sustainable and ethical principles.
LEARNING TO DO
3] I can develop design ideas that give a clear indication of the entrepreneurial innovation and production strategies needed to bring the design successfully to the market place.
PRACTICAL
4] I can create design ideas that are unconventional, may be derived from ill-defined problems in the first instance, and address issues rarely considered by other learners.
 CREATIVE LEARNING
5] I can create and communicate effectively design concepts that have considerable visual flair coupled with innovative solutions and which stand out from those of other learners.
 CREATIVE LEARNING



Subject Focus: Critique, implications and evaluation 

1] I can develop a critique that demonstrates a synoptic approach to what I have learned by drawing in knowledge and analytical skills from across my learning.
PERSONAL
2] I can reflect on my personal attributes as an aspiring innovator and entrepreneur.
PERSONAL
3] I can develop new processes that intrinsically adopt or promote sustainable environmental and socially just practices.
LEARNING TO DO
4] I can develop new industry relevant processes that intrinsically adopt or promote environmentally sustainable and socially just practices.
LEARNING TO DO



Subject Focus: Data collection and interpretation 

1] I can make effective attempts to reconcile conflicting data.
 COGNITIVE LEARNING
2] I can use data analyses in strategic decision-making throughout the design and production process. 
PRACTICAL
3] I can frame a new problem based on innovative ways of obtaining and interpreting data.
COGNITIVE
4] I can collect and portray data that communicates my own Design and Technology skillset through qualitative reflection.
COMMUNICATION



Learning Area Outcome: ​

Subject Focus: Technology - materials and making 

1] I can select and carry out a wide range of processes using hand tools, hand power tools and machine tools, computer-aided design and manufacture (CAD / CAM) in an accomplished way. 
PRACTICAL
2] I can anticipate and design safe scenarios considering health and safety practices and their implications.
PRACTICAL
3] I can design solutions that show a technical elegance rarely seen in the work of the majority of pupils.
 CREATIVE LEARNING
4] I produce practical outcomes that demonstrate an exemplary standard of functionality, attention to detail and application of varied manufacturing technologies.
PRACTICAL
5] I can show an intuitive selection of tools and processes and demonstrate accomplished use of selected tools to fabricate my design ideas and how these may be manufactured in industry.
COGNITIVE



Subject Focus: Technology - systems and control

1] I can design and prototype systems that apply innovative technology in new ways.
PRACTICAL
2] I can select and combine different components from the same domain to achieve an innovative function.
COGNITIVE
3] I can design and make elegant and functional mechanical devices that apply basic mechanical members in innovative custom built ways.
PRACTICAL
4] I can demonstrate that by integrating knowledge from other sciences and mathematics, a designer has complete contol over problem solving of complex systems.
COGNITIVE LEARNING
5] I can apply electronic circuit theory to ensure circuit functionality of discrete components peripheral to the microcontroller.
6] I can measure voltage and interpret simple waveforms using an oscilloscope.
PRACTICAL
7] I can use suitable tools to handle, assemble, disassemble, replace, install, uninstall components safely, when constructing systems.
PRACTICAL
8] I can evaluate and argue concerns about energy depletion and the need to tap on different sources of sustainable energy.
LEARNING TO KNOW
9] I can demonstrate that I  have full control of the design and development of  a system and all its components, combining it with the use of CADCAM and achieving high quality functional products.
MANAGING LEARNING



Subject Focus: Technology - Graphics, Communication and Digital Production

1] I can demonstrate proficient skills in graphic representation and hand drawn design.
PRACTICAL
2] I can express meaningful ideas through my graphic design production that relate to particular social and cultural realities.
USE OF DIGITAL MEDIA
3] I can design 2D and 3D geometry proficiently using a variety of adequate software for both CAD and CAM.
USE OF DIGITAL MEDIA
4] I can visualise and design products taking account of ergonomics and anthropometric data.
