Description
Inspire your students and develop their knowledge of good practice and theory, with a textbook that fully links creativity and practical skills to underpinning knowledge. A real understanding of Resistant Materials Technology requires more than simply ticking off theory listed in the specification. Students need to know how and where to apply it, and understand why. - Written specifically for Resistant Materials Technology, rather than adapted from a generic Design and Technology template - Direct links between theory and its application, helping students to truly grasp underpinning knowledge and improve their written paper grades - Exciting exemplars of innovative and interesting design solutions, which are analysed and linked to the AQA specification
