<p>Worksheets which allows pupil to label machines and explain how they function. good for revision. Suitable for KS3 Level.</p>

<p>After some research and necessary updating of our baseline test for year 7, I have created the following resource to encompass all of the areas within KS3 DT (for my department this is Product Design (timber, metal, plastics, electronics) F&amp;N and Textiles.</p> <p>The resource is broken down in to a page roughly for each subject area, with focus on numeracy, measuring and basic use of equipment. Identification of tools and machinery in the department are also included as well as more detailed questions for F&amp;N, including hygiene and a design based task to measure creativity, design skills etc.</p> <p>I have yet to develop a mark scheme for this, but the test has been made simple enough for marking to allow for peer assessment, with the design question being the only one that may require teacher critique.</p> <p>I hope you find it useful, please leave some feedback!<br /> Enjoy,<br /> GB</p>

<p>Suitable for KS3 year groups in Design Technology.</p> <p>2 worksheets with information and questions for the learning of CAD and CAM. Great for cover, as a homework or as part of a lesson.</p> <p>Tried and tested.</p>

The relentless drive for 'efficiency&' in higher education, and the consequent increase in workloads, has given university teachers a compelling incentive to investigate alternative forms of assessment. Some forms of assessment with a clear educational value can no longer be entertained because of the burden placed on the teacher. An added concern is plagiarism, which anecdotal evidence would suggest is on the increase yet which is difficult to detect in large modules with more than one assessor.

<p>So we have CAD, CAM and CNC…. Confused by how they differ?</p> <p>Within this video as we CONTINUE our GCSE REVISION IN DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY.</p> <p>We will look closer into:</p> <p>What does CNC &amp; CAM stand for?</p> <p>How they differ from each other?</p> <p>And the advantages and disadvantages</p>

<p>WHAT IS COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN (CAD)? So you want to be a product engineer? Or maybe an architect? There is a good chance you will need to know CAD means.

<p>This is a printable guide booklet to give to children which guides them through all sections of the NEA. Each page gives a doodle of what their sketchbook or PowerPoint slide should look like, along with guidance as to what to include in order to meet the mark scheme needs.</p> <p>The booklet is tried and tested, and I have used this format for many years with great success. This booklet is written specifically for AQA GCSE D&amp;T (latest spec).</p> <p>Included is a fully editable version (made in PowerPoint), which you could easily modify to OCR etc. too if you so wished.</p> <p>I have also included a printable booklet of the mark scheme for students and teachers (just a cut down version of the specification), which I find handy for marking, and also a deadline poster for display in the department.</p> <p>This guide will work with any contextual challenge.</p>

This paper describes early experiences with the Ceilidh system currently being piloted at over 30 institutions of higher education. Ceilidh is a course-management system for teaching computer programming whose core is an auto-assessment facility. This facility automatically marks students programs from a range of perspectives, and may be used in an iterative manner, enabling students to work towards a target level of attainment. Ceilidh also includes extensive course administration and progress-monitoring facilities.

Supporting presentations that match the lessons which are now available!**<br /> This enhanced version of the AQA GCSE tracker has been updated to generate comments from the marks awarded. It has the two AQA specimen papers for reference and the 2019 GCSE paper to use as a final test after the theory lessons. The 2020 examination paper is used as a mock exam which will be added to the NEA assessment to give an accurate prediction based on the previous years’s grade boundaries.<br /> A PDF guide to using the tracker has now been added to the resource.</p> <p>Please note the <strong>Grade Boundary</strong> sheet is up to date with the 2019 grade boundaries for both the paper and NEA as of 2021.</p> <p>To use:<br /> Simply use the <strong>Context</strong> sheet to enter all student details including candidate number and attainment target.<br /> Use the <strong>Comment</strong> sheet to award marks for each Assessment Objective and comments will be provided in the boxes for use in CRF’s or reports.<br /> Use the <strong>Mock</strong> sheet to add the marks from the 2020 paper used as a mock exam.<br /> Use the <strong>Theory sheet</strong> to help plan out your weekly lessons to ensure all the theory is covered. You can also use this to keep a track of ongoing assessments and it will show an average. It will also allow you to compare a test paper to the final mock to see if the students have improved.<br /> Everything will then be transferred to the front <strong>Summary</strong> sheet, totals will be generated and levels awarded derived from the existing GCSE boundaries. Old type grades are also provided for reference.</p> <p>All the cells that do not need editing are locked to avoid making mistakes but the sheet can be unlocked with the password ‘gcse’.</p> <p>Updated May 2016 with room for 26 student names and added a pie chart to show percentage of students who were above/below target. More can be added if you are comfortable with editing Excel spreadsheets or simply make additional copies of the spreadsheet for the additional students.<br /> If you have less than 26, ensure that there is nothing entered into the A8 column on the context sheet and the pie chart will ignore these when calculating the percentage of students above/below target.</p> <p>Extra sheets for homework and assessments can be tailored to suit your needs and will not affect the Summary sheet or the predicted levels.</p>
