I have found that the Year 13 DT GCSE students need more direction in the research section and this needs to feed into their specification. Taking a more project management style approach so that everything is planned will hopefully guide students to be more independent in their own enquiry and result in far more meaningful outcomes for this section.
I thoroughly researched this, coming up with a massive bank of relevant subject specific vocabulary/questions/processes/techniques for helping students to get top marks in this section.
Learning outcomes:
In this A-level coursework task, Students will gain an understanding of:
- How to plan, structure and complete (mainly primary) research in a timely manner
- How to structure research so that it links excellently to their Specification, to get the highest possible mark
- An outlined 3-step process to guide students to success in outlining, developing and planning their research independently.
- Far more detailed lines of enquiry using ACCESS FM+ that students can use.
- A discussion of two Project management strategies to use in planning research activities
- A detailed discussion of 3 relevant Quality control processes that students really need to think about.
Potential learning outcomes:
- Improvement and addition of information to the research section
This is the third part of two lessons (so far) dealing with section A that can be recorded on power point or paper, Pease look to the first resource here:
