Design and Technology (Product Design)

Course summary

Throughout the course we will encourage you to push your boundaries and go out of your comfort zone to learn new skills within the subject. Our aim is to give you the broadest experience of working with different tools and equipment so that you can link these skills to your Controlled Assessment. We will continue to develop existing skill sets particularly in design and communication so that you can clearly express your concepts through 2D and 3D media. You will learn about the design process by completing practical investigations, working with a variety of materials. Your theoretical knowledge of the subject will be assessed weekly to help consolidate your knowledge, and we will also aim to make it as interactive as possible to help consolidate your understanding.
