This is a draft feedback checklist created to aid the teacher to provide consistent feedback to students about their theory in a timely manner. It has comments for the various parts of the assessment - the photo journal, technical drawing, plan of the making, JSA and reflection (analysis of the final product and their own workmanship).
This style of feedback is not indicated on the actual draft itself, but as a separate document, which means that the learner has to locate the issues in their draft for correction.
A lifesaver for busy teachers!

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.

1)** a photo journal template** containing a step-by-step series of photographs for the construction of a sheet-metal tool box. Students have to annotate these by answering the five questions at the top of the template to demonstrate their understanding of the tools, machines, processes, safety concerns and time management required to complete the job.
technical drawings of the tool box design.

A unit plan which includes a description of the subject, a unit description, a list of key resources, a breakdown of assessment (theory and prac), syllabus objectives, a list of learning intentions and success criteria, a place to record the differentiation you are providing for particular learners in your class, ways to monitor learning, some questions for reflecting and a teaching and learning guide for the key knowledge / skills to be taught in the unit.
2)** An Introductory PowerPoint for the assessment portion of the unit**. It revisits classroom expectations (in particular those around working in a computer room). It provides tips for the photographic journal portion of the assessment task. It explains to the students how they will be graded for their theory and prac (photographic journal + technical drawing + JSA + construction procedure + toolbox construction).

A PowerPoint designed to teach students how to prepare a Job Safety Analysis to ensure they have considered all safety risks associated with creating a sheet metal carry all tool box. This lesson will teach students to explain the workplace health and safety implications which exist in industrial and workshop environments (and plan to manage any risks associated with their tasks).
It introduces key terms including: hazard, housekeeping, outcome, likelihood, risk score, elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls and PPE
It includes tips for keeping equipment serviced and following safety procedures. It warns students about the dangers of horseplay. It explains the purpose for a JSA, some things to consider when writing one, lists some common potential hazards in a workshop + some possible control measures, the concept of the hazard control hierarchy is introduced. The PPT also goes through the various parts of the JSA to be completed, provides some tips for noise protection, explains the concept of the daily noise dose & a brief summary of the types of PPE that should be worn.
**A JSA template **for students to complete electronically (it can also be printed)

1)** A PowerPoint **reviewing how to write a procedural text (one of the text types the students’ will need in Engineering Skills).
It explains what a procedural text is giving examples from everyday life (real world context). Give tips for writing a procedural text (e.g. tense, not first person). An activity to check students’ understanding of active verbs.
Explaining how their procedural plan aka plan of the making component of the assessment is a procedural text and must follow these genre conventions. It also gives students some common active verbs used in Engineering to use within their procedural text.
A template plan of the making for students to complete as part of their preparation for making a sheet-metal tool box.
