Set of two papers for the new spec end of year exam.

Booklet and scheme of work for a dark-activated lamp project. Pupils learn about systems, electronics and electricity generation whilst going through the design process for creating a prototype. https://www.kitronik.co.uk/2120-dark-activated-colour-changing-night-light-kit.html

6 week project. Pupils design, make and evaluate two music festival tickets with associated packaging as part of a graphics project.

This is a small booklet aimed at Year 9s who will be starting GCSE Design and Technology in September. It includes key terms and an overview of timbers, metals, polymers and smart/modern materials. Could be a good starting point for you.

A 5/6 week project that investigates different aspects of rocket design, each lesson aims to address a different aspect including fin design, aerodynamics and mass. A water rocket launcher is used in the school playground. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Aquapod-Bottle-Launcher-Fires-Bottles/dp/B005KSHKNW

Enable macros on this workbook for the generator to function properly. This crude excel spreadsheet allows you to input many different questions that you may ask as part of your usual retrieval practice routine, except that it generates a random question from material you have taught and assigns it to a random member of the class. Example also attached.

A lesson designed to be delivered online whereby information on the changes is delivered by the teacher and pupils focus on one or more of them to create a summary in the form of a video or campaign etc.

This unit has been designed for Year 9 pupils to build confidence in sketching. Pupils learn about basic skills and build upon these each lesson. Pupils will use the DTDOT/DTMicroDOT when sketching in isometric. Applied activities include the design of earbud headphones, a hairdryer and a fragrance bottle. At the end of the unit pupils complete a product analysis on a three-pin plug.

Card sort designed for KS3 but could be used for revision at KS4.

Set of Engineering drawings for a lamp, inspired by WJEC exemplar materials, also includes an exploded animation and a progress checklist. Skills: - Lathe (upright bars and thumb screws) - 2D/3D CAD - Laser Cutting - Tapping - Marking out - Drilling - Bending - Filing - Joining with solvent cement - Assembly - Soldering Contains 12 LED array from htttp://www.startdesigning.co.uk

A two-week design only project to study smart and modern materials with a focus on sketching, rendering and annotation. This resource contains: 2x PowerPoints of whole lesson. 2x Resource packs 1x Writing Frame for Lesson 1 Lesson 1: (Tip, keep the design a secret until the end i.e. they don't know why they are learning about smart and modern materials) Pupils rotate around tables in a carousel in order to learn about smart and modern materials. They begin to think about a sports glove design based around a very simple specification that they develop. Lesson 2: Pupils develop their initial design whilst learning about annotation and rendering. They focus deeply on material selection and their justifications for their choices.

Powerpoints and videos for every lesson - ideal for non-specialists This SoW has been tweaked a lot over the last few years. It offers a great introduction to our subject in Year 7 with a focus on technical skills rather than creativity. Theory: \ - Timbers \ - Electricity generation \ - Basic electronics \ - Isometric drawing \ - Basic electronics \ - Evaluation \ - Basic programming Practical skills: \ - Measuring \ - Marking out \ - Using templates \ - Cutting \ - Drilling \ - Joints (Dowel and Dovetail) [Bridle as adjustable] \ - Soldering \ - Staining \ - Assembly \ - Programming LED Strip and USB Cable from startdesigning.co.uk (cut into strips of 8 LEDs) Opal acrylic from Hindleys Each pupil receives 500mm of 2x1" PAR softwood M6x50 bolt and wingnut Extended writing evaluation at end, review week used to improve any written work and present their work orally.

AQA latest spec A serious amount of work went into these! Credit to V.Ryan for a small amount of the content. Split into knowledge for Paper 1 and for Paper 2.

Project focussing on hand sewing skills using recycled materials. Designed for one double lesson per week (100 mins), lasts nine weeks. Students design and make for one of three customers: Baby Girl, Blind Girl or a Four-year-old Boy.
