10 week worth of PSHE lessons on Powerpoint.

posters of inspirational quotes and images

This is a project i do with Year 9. It can be tailored to run from 12 weeks to 18 weeks (double lessons) Outline: Students learn about different designers and design eras. They design a table lamp that is inspired by a chosen designers or design era. Included: Scheme of work Powerpoint presentation of lessons Editable work book

This is a great project i do with year 8. It brings together, traditional hand cutting, CAD/CAM, Electronics and Computer programming. Brief: Students are to design and make a programmable robotic buggy. Outline: Students design a profile, prototype out of card board, then cut out of acrylic using a scroll/coping saw. Wheels are designed then cut out using the laser cutter. Circuit board is soldered together. Genie chip is programmed to bring the buggy to life. Recommended time frame is around 13/14 weeks (double lessons) Included: Lesson plans Editable work book Power Point presentation on robots and sensors

Behavioural contract given to pupils and parents to help with any discipline issues

Power point slide on the effects of climate change, can be used for PHSE or assemblies

Included is a range of homeworks for GCSE DT. Tailored towards Edexcel Resistant Materials, but they can be edited to suit your need. Homeworks cover: Multiple choice style questions Evaluative Design Ideas Specification Materials

This is over 16 weeks of Electronics practical i do with Year 7. Included: PowerPoint Presentation on all lessons, with starter and tasks Work booklet that coincides with the PP End of unit test Extension tasks It covers all the basics: Circuit Boards Protoboards Series/Parallel Circuits Resistors Diodes L.E.D L.D.R Transistors Capacitors Soldering

Based on GCSE Edexcel Design Technology 9 to 1. This powerpoint will explain the differernt modern and smart materials through gif animations and tasks. I also did my best to have physical samples to pass around. Modern and Smart: Shape Memory Alloy Nanomaterials Photochromic Reactive Glass Piezoelectric Temperature Responsive Polymers Conductive Inks Composites: Concrete Plywood Carbon Fibre / Fibre Glass Technical Textiles: Agrotextiles Construction Textiles Geotextiles Domestic Textiles

This is an activity i do with my students to get them thinking about wild ideas and not have to be perfect all the time. Each student will get 3 stacks of paper. Each stack has a noun, adjective and verb. (a list is provided in the power point, you can print and cut them out). They will read the descriptions and draw the first thing that come to their mind. A lot of fun and can get loud! The presentation continues to talk about inspirations and what the inspiration was for famous designs (another game). Another drawing task which gets the students to morph two random items together.

This is an Ergonomics project. I do it with year 7 but can be tweaked for all age groups. Can take from 8 weeks (double lessons) to 11 weeks. It can be stretched or decreased. Once the styrofoam model was created, students then 3d scanned and printed their prototypes. It is called the ergonomic mouse project, but i changed it to pointing device to stop design fixation of a traditional shape. Brief: Students need to design and create a navigation device for a computer/laptop. Outline: They use plasticine to mould a shape, take picture and insert into their books. They must hand their prototypes to a range of students in order to gain feedback. feedback is recorded and then they move on to the next design. Included is: A full scheme of work with learning objectives, lesson plans and differentiation. Power Point presentation for lessons. PP include explanations for teachers and lesson objectives An editable work booklet that students will use to answer questions, insert pictures and research. This streamlines very well with the new Spec, it covers: Ergonomics - Anthropometrics, Psychology and Physiology Prototyping Communication and feedback Cutting, filing, using different grades of sanding and finishing. CAD/CAM

This is based on Edexcel’s GCSE 9 to 1. The powerpoint explains the 4 types of movements with gif animations and some tasks: Oscillation Linear Rotary Reciprocation It then goes into levers, again explaining the different classes with gif animations and images, but it would help to also have things to hand, such as: Stapler Bottle opener Tweezer Scissors/pliers

Dt project, pupils create a clock using the Mephis movement as inspiration

Powerpoint on the different printing process

powerpoint presentation on Gangs and gun crime etc. Can be used in assemblies or PHSE

Drawing task: 1st task is features of Art Deco 2nd task is to write your name in an Art Deco theme 3rd task is help them draw under pressure, if they can complete that task with their opposite hand, imagine what they can achieve with their dominant hand. 4th task, actually exam question with mark scheme worksheets and images are from V.Ryan at www.technologystudent.com

Power point posters i made and displayed around my department to make pupils more aware of other designers (i even put myself in it)

Product analysis presentation with task

Powerpoint on Ergonomics and the main aspects

Revision worksheet, pupils have to fill in the blanks to reveal the name of materials

A Powerpoint presentation that explains the matters that effect design. ACCESSFM is really good and easy to remember
