Appropriateness and quality of the reference/research materials;
Students should demonstrate skills and knowledge to show:-
• Understanding of the design context - reference to the clients needs, analysis of the problem;
• relevant research / reference materials in context; comments / annotation relating to the designs, materials or reference to the fabrication of the product/s collated;
• how these materials have inspired, influenced or stimulated their thinking?
• how their research connects with suggested solutions? clear annotation to help clarify design outcomes
Students should demonstrate their skills and knowledge to show..
• a range of ideas / concepts at least 2/3;
• concepts showing design for creativity and
fabrication;
• clarity of their idea/s showing detail/s by including
annotation;
• a range of sketching techniques pictorial, exploded,
sectional, 2D, orthographic, etc.
Design sheets 2/3: Suggestions for Layout
Design sheets 3/4: Suggestions for Layout
Students should demonstrate their skills and knowledge to show:-
• the selection of their best idea / concept;
• the development the design for creativity where necessary
and including fabrication details for all parts;
• support the clarity of the idea and details by including
annotation where appropriate;
• the suggested materials stating reasons for choice.
In an effort to reduce the annual death toll on the roads of about 100 cyclists and the injury rate, which is about 20,000 you have been asked to carryout research and design on: ‘Bicycle Mirrors’
Design Brief / Opportunity:
Design a bicycle mirror that will help make the cyclist more aware of rear view traffic and assist in safe cycling for all.
Electrical power interruption does happen occasionally. Extreme weather, falling branches, accidents and vandalism can cause lines to be damaged and supply to be lost in the home.
Design Brief / Opportunity:
Design an emergency LED light to be used in a domestic situation.
Many able bodied people use laptops on their knee whilst working. Considering the wheelchair user research a support that will ease the use of a laptop.
Design Brief / Opportunity:
Design a portable, compact and lightweight laptop support for a wheelchair user.
To help launch a new model of digital camera a manufacturer has decided to include a free support stand as part of the overall package deal.
The stands main function is to keep the camera steady when shooting a still image.
Design a stand that will hold a Camera steady when taking still photographs.
The device should include the following features:-
• Aesthetically pleasing• Stability• Ease of use• Compact • Lightweight• Portable • Cost to manufacture• Marketable product• Safety

The student in this example refers to the bag shape as a stimulus but should comment further as to the pros and cons of this shape:
• the simplicity of the shape / ease of manufacture;• time saving to manufacture;• this basic shape could be developed;• or this semi-circular shape lends itself to a box / casing design.
