Design:Objectives

  • generate several feasible designs that meet the design specification
  • evaluate the designs against the design specification
  • select one design and justify its choice.

Students could: make sketches, use CAD, make use of modelling techniques, create ‘how to’ diagrams, use graphics software

Check the rubric below: Can you get a 6? Check previous units for help on how to tackle the design stage of your project.

0

The student does not reach a standard described by any of the descriptors given below.

1 - 2

The student generates one design, and makes some attempt to justify this against the design specification.

3 - 4

The student generates a few designs, justifying the choice of one design and fully evaluating this against the design specification.

5 - 6

The student generates a range of feasible designs, each evaluated against the design specification. The student justifies the chosen design and evaluates it fully and critically against the design specification.
