Year 9 Resistant Materials – Art Deco Picture Frame Project
Objectives | Grade 1 | Grade 2 | Grade 3 | Grade 4 |
Investigating the Task and Design Brief | I collected ideas from catalogues or the internet.
I selected a suitable client and produced a simple profile. |
I collected ideas from at least 2 places. E.g. catalogues, the internet, drawings etc.
I can say how my product suits my client. |
I clearly explained how my research may be useful when designing. | I used a wide range of resources and clearly explained how they helped my designing. |
Specification | I listed down what I wanted my product to do using ACCESS FM. I have given some reasons for the points I have made. | I used ACCESS FM write my specification. I have given at least one reason for each specification point. | I produced a detailed Specification using ACCESS FM. I have good knowledge of materials and processes. | I have independently researched materials that I could use in industry as well as school. I have sound knowledge of knowledge material properties and characteristics. |
Design Ideas | I explained the positive and negatives of my design ideas.
My rendering demonstrates some understanding of material properties. |
I used the help sheet to write about my design ideas. I can say why my design is suitable for my client. My rendering is detailed and I have shown how the product will fit together. | I can annotate my ideas in detail, explaining how they meet the brief. I can identify potential problems with my designs. My rendering is realistic and I have shown good attention to detail. | I added detailed notes to all my design ideas. I have attempted the prompts on the helpsheet and considered sustainability issues.
My rendering is highly realistic. |
Design
Development |
I can explain some technical detail about my final product such as which joints I will use and why. I can use simple CAD/CAM. | I explained how other peoples ideas can help me develop my design. I can explain how I have adapted my design for CAD/CAM. | I selected the best design and developed it further based on my peers’ views and my knowledge of CAD/CAM. | I selected the best design and developed it further based on the different needs of a range of users. (Linking to client profile). |
Planning | I produced a step by step plan for making. I understand where to place simple quality checks and can name the basic equipment. | I drew a plan for making before I started and explained what tools and equipment I will use.
I can modify my plan if things change. |
I produced detailed planning in the form of a flowchart. My flowchart has relevant quality checks and names the tools and equipment that I will use. | I made a detailed plan for making which included the tools, equipment, materials, health and safety, quality control methods and time. |
Making | I always used the correct tools and equipment.
I can mark out accurately and follow the instructions. Most of my joints meet. There are some rough edges. |
My product is well made and accurate.
I can independently use CAD/CAM to enhance my design. My joints meet and the edges are smooth. |
I used a range of tools, equipment, materials and processes.
I can independently plan and work through a sequence of tasks. My product is high quality and suitable for the market. |
I used a range of tools, equipment, materials and processes.
My design is professional and clearly follows my design journey. I can work independently and to the plan of making to create a unique product. |
Evaluating | I explained what the product should do and how well my project works.
I explained the good and bad parts of my product and improvements I could make. |
My final product was tested by myself and other people.
I explained the good and bad parts of my product and what improvements I could make. I explained how my product could be made outside of school (industry practice). |
I tested and evaluated the product I designed and manufactured detailing improvements.
I evaluated the way I have used sources of information. I explained any alterations, modifications and improvements. |
I listened to other peoples views relating to the product I made.
I modified my product in light of the evaluation or redesigned it on paper. I evaluated my design against my design brief I have considered the environment, ethical issues and social and cultural impact. |
