| Stage Seven: The pupils will select their best idea and develop it further. They will place the design in the centre of the page and annotate aspects of the design that could be further improved. Examples of presentation techniques will be discussed. Emphasis will be placed on the need for detailed notes which may cover - materials, shape, colour, size, safety, commercial manufacture etc….. |
L. List improvements regarding the selected design and discuss these within groups. Detailed development notes discussed. C. The class votes for what they consider to be the best design ICT. Pupils must produce an aspect of their development using DTP,/ Graphics software. HWK. Complete the development section. |
Carry out a simple survey (outside school) aimed at finding suggestions for improving your design. Produce a report based on the findings. |
