SUBJECT OVERVIEW

The content of this course is influenced by the learning outcomes stated in the Industrial Technology and Design Education subject Area Syllabus.

GLOBAL AIMS

The course in Industrial Technology seeks to provide meaningful learning experiences in which the students:

(a)develop a knowledge and understanding of a range of materials, tools and processes underlying the subject

(b)develop the ability to design, make and appraise across a range of contexts

(c)develop the skills associated with autonomous as well as cooperative learning

(d)employ safe working practices including the ability to assess risks

(e)develop an ability to communicate effectively within the areas of written and graphical communication

(f)develop and apply literacy and numeracy skills across a range of contexts.

It is envisaged that these aims will be met through effective teaching and

learning in a thematic context.

ASSESSMENT

Students will be assessed utilising criteria based assessment across the assessment criteria of:

Knowledge and Understanding(K&U)

Ways of Working- Investigation & Design(RP)

- Evaluation & Reflection(RP)

- Producing(PE)

The instruments used for assessment will include:

class tests(K&U, RP)

related homework(K&U,RP)

student workbook(K&U, RP)

completed project(PE)

AREAS OF STUDY

1.Woodwork5.Safety

2.Plastics 6.Sheetmetal Work

3.Project Planning and Design7.Surface Finishing

4.Workshop Graphics 8.Art Metalwork.

REQUIREMENTS

(a)Students must wear appropriate footwear at all times whilst in the workshop.

(b)All loose clothing and jewellery must be removed before entering the workshop.

(c)The school will provide all the materials for set projects.

(d)Students must have read, be familiar with and have signed the relevant safety notes.

ASSESSMENT techniques.

A variety of techniques will be used to assess the objectives of the subject and as a result, to evaluate and assess student achievement. Methods of assessment may or will include the following:

(1)Set Projects - concerned mainly with the achievement of Content and Skill objectives, although in some cases Process skills must also be developed since students may be planning procedures and processes involved in the production of the project and may even be modifying the project. Typical methods of assessment will include:

*quality of construction, assembly and finish of project.

*ability to safely and correctly use the workshop, its machines, equipment and hand tools.

*creative woodwork.

(2)Design Projects - concerned mainly with the achievement of Process and Skill objectives. Assessment will be concerned with the realisation and evaluation of the students practical solutions to design problems.

(3)Technology - concerned with the achievement of Content and Process objectives. Typical methods of assessment will include:

*answers to questions based on relevant areas of work

*ability to logically and graphically present information.

*use of appropriate literacy.

*tests involving multiple choice, matching, short answer and essay questions.

CLASS RULES

Virtues – need to display Respect, Responsibility, Self-Discipline, Commitment, Caring,

Honesty, Tolerance

Safety - as per teacher instruction and Workshop Signage.

Standards - workmanship (practical and theory) is to reflect pride in ones own capabilities.

Equipment - all equipment is to be well maintained and treated with the utmost of care.

TECHNOLOGY

Assessable elements and descriptors of quality for A-E

Assessable elements and descriptors support teacher judgments about the standard a student has achieved.

Assessable elements:* identify the valued features of the key learning area to be assessed

* draw from the two dimensions of the Essential Learnings: Ways of working and Knowledge and understanding

* can be used together or independently when designing assessment

Descriptors:* indicate the qualities evident in student work

* use an A-E scale.

SAFETY

INTRODUCTION

The most important factor in establishing safe working conditions in the Craft Room is YOU - the student.

The Education Department provides rooms in which you can work safely, and machines with special safety guards.

Your teachers will instruct you in the correct use of tools and machines, and lay down rules for your behaviour in the room.

Rules and instructions, and safety guards, however, will not prevent accidents if you are careless or irresponsible.

Accidents do not happen - they are caused, and it has been proved that in nearly all cases the cause is not machines or tools, but people.

INTRODUCTION:

Investigation is one of the key elements in good design practice and is carried out in a number of ways. You can collect data from known information sources or you can undertake to research the data for yourself. You could look at other products to see how they achieve their aim or you could ask people what they want.

REQUIREMENTS:

• You are to research the sizes of the Herb/spice bottles that you have at home.

• Measure the diameter of each different size you find.

• Measure the height of each different size you find.

• Draw a colour picture of one of the spice bottles
