GCSE/A Level CAD Headphone Challenge

GCSE/A level CAD Challenge Design your dream headphones!

This extremely comprehensive resource that covers at least 2-3 lessons is suitable for both GCSE and A level classes (whom I have tried and tested this with and they have fed back how much they enjoyed it!). The 1st idea to get them working independently to learn new design skills and specialist technical knowledge. The 2nd idea is to get them away from ‘design fixation’ which I have found a lot with the NEA’s.

This is the perfect resource for remote learning to get students enthused, confident and carrying on independently, with a high quality power point, with highly detailed guidance, examples and specialist technical knowledge, with relevant visuals and animations, YouTube tutorials and directed tasks. This is also suitable as cover work.

Learning outcomes: Students will gain an understanding of:

• Secondary research techniques (mood board)
• How to gain knowledge by watching a YouTube video (the link is only available through this purchase) and then go to creatively develop design ideas of headphones, using the CAD program, sketch up free
• Detailed Specialist Technical subject knowledge with page numbers already cross-referenced and a detailed explanation of the process already included with strong emphasis on researching the correct machinery, materials and equipment, as well as what scale of production.
• Extension tasks: Create a flowchart of headphone manufacture

Potential learning outcomes:

3-4 power point slides/ Length: 2 – 3 lessons (including student activity)

Please look at my other resources to find similarly highly detailed, high quality resources that are up to date for 2021 for both GCSE and A level design and technology and product design NEA’s and courses

I hope these help you and your students enjoy and learn as it did mine!

Please add a positive review/some stars if you found this useful as this really helps; THANK YOU!
