Self Assessment

Criterion A: Inquiring and analyzing
Maximum: 8
Students identify the need for a solution to a problem. At the end of year 5, students should be able to:
  1. explain and justify the need for a solution to a problem for a specified client/target audience
  2. identify and prioritize primary and secondary research needed to develop a solution to the problem
  3. analyze a range of existing products that inspire a solution to the problem
  4. develop a detailed design brief, which summarizes the analysis of relevant research.

  3. present the chosen design and justify its selection
  4. develop accurate and detailed planning drawings/diagrams and outline the requirements for the creation of the chosen solution.

Achievement level
Criterion B: Developing Ideas
0
The student does not reach a standard described by any of the descriptors given below.
1-2
The student:
  1. lists some basic design specifications for the design of a solution
  2. presents one design, which can be interpreted by others
  3. creates incomplete planning drawings/diagrams.
3-4
The student:
  1. lists some design specifications, which relate to the success criteria for the design of a solution
  2. presents a few feasible designs, using an appropriate medium(s) or annotation, which can be interpreted by others
  3.  justifies the selection of the chosen design with reference to the design specification
  4. creates planning drawings/diagrams or lists requirements for the creation of the chosen solution.
5-6
The student:
  1. develops design specifications, which outline the success criteria for the design of a solution
  2. develops a range of feasible design ideas, using an appropriate medium(s) and annotation, which can be interpreted by others
  3. presents the chosen design and justifies its selection with reference to
    the design specification
  4. develops accurate planning drawings/diagrams and lists requirements
    for the creation of the chosen solution.
7-8
The student:
  1. develops detailed design specifications, which explain the success criteria for the design of a solution based on the analysis of the research
  2. develops a range of feasible design ideas, using an appropriate medium(s) and detailed annotation, which can be correctly interpreted by others
  3. presents the chosen design and justifies fully and critically its selection with detailed reference to the design specification
  4. develops accurate and detailed planning drawings/diagrams and outlines requirements for the creation of the chosen solution.

Criterion C: Creating the solution
Maximum: 8
Students create a solution. At the end of year 5, students should be able to:

  2. demonstrate excellent technical skills when making the solution
  3. follow the plan to create the solution, which functions as intended
  4. fully justify changes made to the chosen design and plan when making the solution
    1. present the solution as a whole
 
Achievement level
Criterion C: Creating the solution
0
The student does not reach a standard described by any of the descriptors given below.
1-2
The student:
  1. demonstrates minimal technical skills when making the solution
  2. creates the solution, which functions poorly and is presented in an incomplete form.
3-4

  2. demonstrates satisfactory technical skills when making the solution
  3. creates the solution, which partially functions and is adequately presented
  4. outlines changes made to the chosen design and plan when making the solution.
5-6
