AQA D&T 8552 client profile NEA

Hi everyone, this is lesson 1 and 2. Lesson 1 is how to expand on a project analysis. You should really used lesson 1 to go through the contextual challenges with your pupils. Lesson 2 is about how to do a client profile. Identifying their needs and possibility of various layouts. It is important that you do not provide template pages. As this can hinder their own ownership of the project and possibility stop them from going into their own creative input towards the project. Using project templates is also against the specification rules. Use these slides as guidance only pupils can take notes, discuss how the problems were described and how needs have been addressed.

Hi everyone, have you ever had a situation where your pupils cannot get full marks for research because they have limited understanding of the moral and social impact on society. Please find a number of slides with animations. You will need a clicker to go through the slides. What I have done is make sure my pupils have covered with understanding the impact of using softwoods, hardwoods and manufactured boards as well as the implications of using plastics. It is important that pupils take notes, then for homework write up their notes in their own words and interpretation. Never allow them to directly copy from the PowerPoint. It is necessary for them to develop their own understanding and to expand from the slides. For example they could find out the alternatives instead of using synthetics plastics. How wood fibres are recycled to create manufactured boards or how reclaimed timbers are made to look new.

This is a scheme of work which will take about two lessons. Teaching pupils how to use 2D design. You would need to have a CAD/CAM laser cutter or a CNC router.

Hi everyone; This is my lesson on material misconceptions and drawing misconceptions. The drawing techniques are historically the sections where a lot of my pupils struggle with. So I have broken down previous questions and explained it with a series of PowerPoint animations. You will see the following; Understanding orthographic views. Understanding perpective drawing. How to visualise and attain information from a third angle projection drawing. Misconceptions with annotated drawings. Misconceptions with manufactured boards. Misconceptions with obsolescence.

AQA Design and Technology lesson revision practical (making a name plate)

Hi everyone; With this you will find 4 slides with a breakdown of the AQA curriculum based on natural timbers and manufactured boards. We go into the characteristics. I find with my pupils I think it would be unfair to try and hold their engagement with lots of slides and note taking. So I planned a practical where we will make a name plate/coat hook. This will help with their understanding of sources and origins of timbers. This will include a breakdown from felled timbers, seasoning, packing and then distribution. Using animations and a step by step click and explain. Third slide goes into tools equipment and processes while making a name plate/coat hook. The processes will be sawing, cutting with a router, drilling and through CNC routering or can be replaced with laser engraving. I wanted to include vacuum forming so will allow for my pupils to vacuum form plastic over the top. The vacuum forming will not need to be removed just the edges cut off. I hope from combining a practical and revision they will be able to retain the information more easily. This package includes the slides and 2D Design drawing where pupils can alter the text and understand third angle projection. But I cannot attach the file as it says it is unsupported on TES. But if you require the drawing leave a comment review and write to me with your email and I will email you the drawing.

Hi everyone, This is revision to help with your Design and Technology classes. I have based this on the AQA specification about modern materials. You are meant to teach your pupils of the following; Graphene. Titanium. Metal foams. Nanotechnology The second phase is about processes; I have presented it as a journey, explaining how the world started with mechanical calculaters, fuses to then integrated circuits and microchips. I have researched and found the shortest videos online that explain it in a way that is on the level for the Year 10 and Year 11 age groups.

Hi this is a PowerPoint explaining Just in Time Production, Flexible Manufacturing Systems and Lean manufacturing. I used animations within the confines of PowerPoint to explain things. Ideally you need a PowerPoint clicker.

Hi everyone, thankyou for reading through this. I have a PDF format project. Where you can get kids to make a paper rocket. It is propelled by a piece of 15mm diameter wide UPVC piping and can be launched in a controlled environment a bit like a pea shooter. I have a balloon powered cardboard car, made from either cardboard keenex, chocolate or biscuit boxes. The parts such as axels and wheels as well as straws can be bought from a espo catalogue. The third project is a mechanical litter picker. If you are interested I can supply the CAD DXF drawing. If you have nearby engineering factories that have CAD/CAM facilities they can cut these. In my area we had about three companies volunteer to cut the parts out. Then we did a community litter pick and it got in the local papers. These are a few ideas. Worksheets and ideas pages are provided.
