Electronic Dice & Board Game Project.

This is a differentiated, multi-skill, KS3 project which combines wood work (finger/butt joints), electronics (soldering skills, circuit, components & colour-coded resistors), 2D design, graphics (board game) and product design (a net, packaging and packaging symbols), including homework tasks. It helps students to choose their own level of difficulty in design & manufacture, to take control of their learning, to work individually and as a team, to peer-assess each other’s work, to test & evaluate their work based on the project activities, and to critically analyse & evaluate. In addition, it teaches the use of tally charts, bar charts & flow charts.
