2021 AQA DT GCSE NEA Section A Part 2

Worried about what to teach the Year 11 DT GCSE students in September 2020? This is the perfect resource to get them carrying on and enthused with a high quality power point, with relevant visuals and animations, as well as questions, techniques and directed tasks to get them finishing off Section A and really having a much better idea of how to carry on!

I really researched the hard bits, including coming up with a massive word bank of relevant words for the social, environmental and economic aspect so that your students are going to fly into the top tier!

Learning outcomes:

In this part 2 of Section A, GCSE coursework task, Students will gain an understanding of:

• The importance of investigating the work of others, whether this be based on similar products online, established designer’s solutions to a similar contextual challenge, or even some practical experimentation
• Inspiration: Time to start doing designs – a minimum of 8 initial ideas/investigations for this section. CAD can also be used.
• The importance and responsibility of designers knowing and producing products that are based on a good knowledge of: social, environmental and economic effects.
• Consider ongoing research throughout folder that will help an iterative design approach.

Potential learning outcomes:
Second two slides/pages of NEA
Length - 2 lessons (including student activity)
