AQA DT Designing and making principles -Prototype Development

A very effective resource, comprising a PowerPoint that is fully aligned with AQA DT specification content, and an accompanying worksheet.

The worksheet included a reading comprehension task, key information summary, key vocabulary and questions with increasing levels of challenge, making it suitable for learners of all abilities.

The specification content covered is:

"Design and develop prototypes in response to client wants and needs. Note the term prototype can be used to describe either a product or system.
-How the development of prototypes:
-satisfy the requirements of the brief
-respond to client wants and needs
-demonstrate innovation
-are functional
-consider aesthetics
-are potentially marketable.
Students should know and understand how to evaluate prototypes and be able to:
reflect critically, responding to feedback when evaluating their own prototypes
suggest modifications to improve them through inception and manufacture
assess if prototypes are fit for purpose.

This highly effective resource can be used as a standalone lesson or as cover work.

Please look at the rest of my DT resources, you won’t be disappointed.
