Whole-school design, engineering and technology resources

This is a resource for the AQA non-exam assessment for GCSE Food Preparation and Nutrition. It has be designed to fit any of the AQA tasks and is not specific to one. The help guide sets out guidelines for students to complete the NEA, it has a space for them to write in the task they have selected. It also includes a space for key dates. The help guide includes a breakdown of the marks in each section and what students need to do to complete each section successfully. For each section (research, investigation, analysis) there is a check list for students to remind them what to complete. The last two pages are practical planning sheets. These will help students plan their experiments so they are able to resource them and workout what data they need to collect.

This resource has been prepared to help the students tackle the live task for GCSE Food Preparation and Nutrition, Non-Exam Assessment 1 for the year 2017. It has been specifically designed for the AQA question around gluten formation. It is the first in a series of resources that will allow students to successful complete the non exam assessment element. This resource focuses on introducing the assessment to the students as well as completing the necessary paperwork and understanding the regulations set out by both the exam board and the JQC in regards to non exam assessments. This is a complete lesson that will enable the students to complete the background research of the project and allow them confidently to approach section A. The first part of the lesson focuses on what the students need to do in the task i.e. write a report, explain the importance of referencing and a bibliography. The second part of the lesson allows students to breakdown the task on gluten and pasta and bread making. There are a series of worksheets that help the student: -Worksheet A: This gets the students to think of an early aim and understand the key words from the task. It allows students to think about what they already know. - Worksheet B: This allows students to think about what background research they need to do in order to successfully research the topic. It then asks them to think about where the information comes from. - Worksheet C: Encourages students to keep a bibliography of resources used as they complete their research -Worksheet D: Gets students to think of any suitable experiments for the investigation. This unit is supported by a fully prepared PowerPoint and a student help guide for the entire NEA. It breaks down each section and had some practical planning sheets.

This unit covers the required skills and knowledge for students to complete Edexcel Level 2 BTEC First Diploma in Engineering - Unit 10 Using Computer Aided Drawing Techniques in Engineering The aim of this unit is to provide you with an introduction to CAD and to enable you to produce engineering drawings to given industry standards. The unit will provide the necessary foundation to study CAD at a higher level. • Be able to start up and close down hardware and software in order to perform CAD activities • Be able to produce CAD drawings • Be able to modify engineering drawings using CAD commands • Be able to store and retrieve engineering drawings for printing/plotting

This unit covers the required skills and knowledge students need to complete Edexcel Level 2 BTEC First Diploma in Engineering - Unit 18 Engineering Marking Out The main aim of this project is to: Give you the understanding and skills needed for the measurement and marking out of components in preparation for machining operations. This first step in the manufacture or development of a product is critical to all the processes that follow. You will: • Be able to use and care for marking out equipment • Be able to mark out engineering work pieces to specification

My 12-13 year-olds loved this project because it was all about food which was the perfect subject matter for them... straightforward shapes and vivid colours. We looked at the paintings of Wayne Thiebaud and discussed how he uses shadow and light and his status as the grandfather of pop art. Students will produce two coloured pencil artworks, two acrylic paintings and a ceramic cup cake with a removable top over the course of approximately 10 hours of class time. I've included photos of my students' creations.

This unit covers the required skills and knowledge for students to complete Edexcel Level 2 BTEC First Diploma in Engineering - Unit 4 Mathematics for Engineering The purpose of this project is to provide a framework within which the learner can: 1) Be able to solve engineering problems mathematically. 2) Be able to use an electronic scientific calculator. As this unit is challenging for students there is a teacher answer sheet after each slide as guidance.

Pupils design and make their own Paddington pop-up book. Pop-up Paddington is inspired by the joy of Paddington's second film adventure, Paddington 2 (in cinemas November 10). Activities support and encourage pupils to develop communication, active citizenship, problem solving and creative skills. Pop-up Paddington culminates in the creation and evaluation of a pop-up book featuring Paddington carrying out ‘odd jobs' around the community. Pop-up Paddington is designed for learners in Key Stage 2/Second level, with guidance to simplify or extend activities to suit the variety of skills and abilities demonstrated by pupils aged 7-11. It has been created in partnership with STUDIOCANAL. You can round off your Paddington-inspired work by giving each pupil a competition entry form for their chance to win official Paddington goodies for their whole class, plus a special Paddington 2 prize for the winning entrant! Find out more in the competition leaflet which can be downloaded here https://www.intofilm.org/resources/1354. Not yet Into Film? Start your free Into Film Club at www.intofilm.org/clubs
