A LEVEL PRODUCT DESIGN NEA SECTION D 2021 This is the perfect resource for remote learning to get students enthused, confident and carrying on, with a high quality power point, with highly detailed guidance, examples and specialist technical knowledge, with relevant visuals and animations, techniques and directed tasks to get them finishing off Section D! This is an extremely comprehensive resource that covers this entire unit. Learning outcomes: In this A level coursework task, Students will gain an understanding of: How the mark scheme translates into 3 chunked research tasks: How to explain how their intended prototype would be fully address the design brief, satisfying all major points of the specification also meeting the needs/requirements of their client The specialist technical subject knowledge of section with strong emphasis on researching the correct tools, materials and equipment, as well as health and safety, quality control and relevance to their intended prototype manufacture Students will learn how to represent this intended manufacture process as a detailed manufacturing diary, considering health and safety as well as quality control. I have gone into an incredible level of detail on the manufacture processes, including: Wasting processes, Sawing & jointing, Drilling, Turning , Polymer forming processes: Vacuum forming, Line bending , CAD CAM processes: Laser cutting, 3d printing, Metal processes: Casting, MIG welding, Soldering, Standard components and fixings, Knock down fittings, Fixings, Tensol glue, Epoxy resin, PVA glue, Finishes, Adding veneer, Painting with acrylic/stain/watercolour, and finally Varnishing. I also mention injection moulding and industrial processes. This aspect of the power point alone makes this an invaluable resource for exam revision as it covers all the core specialist Technical knowledge aspects in the A level course. Potential learning outcomes: Next 4 - 5 slides/pages of NEA / Length – 3 - 5 lessons (including student activity) This is one of my TES units dealing with the 2021 A level NEA.

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!
