11 Engineering Skills (Metalwork) - Tool box analysis scaffold (graphic organiser)

Part of a set of resources created for a year 11 Engineering Skills class in Australia (new syllabus). The other resources are also available in my store - lrigb4.

A graphic organiser for helping the students plan to analyse their metal carry-all tool box. As part of dimension 3, students are assessed on their ability to “evaluate industry practices, production processes and products, and make recommendations.” When students evaluate, they test and check industry practices, production processes and their own created products for effectiveness, usability, functionality and suitability for the intended purpose. They also assign merit according to criteria derived from specifications. When students make recommendations, they consider alternatives and suggest ways to improve production processes and products.

The graphic organiser provides prompting questions and sentence starters to assist students to plan and write their analysis.
