Description
Pupil's become familiar with the project-based approach, where knowledge and understanding are enhanced by on-going tasks. Emphasis is placed upon encouraging pupils to provide appropriate assessment evidence, enabling them to produce a coherent folder of work demonstrating their designing and making skills. Industrial case studies help introduce pupils to manufacturing terminology and concepts needed at GCSE. The pupil's book has been created to minimise the amount of text, making it readable for the age group and providing a high level of visual stimulus. This attracts pupils' attention, helps to stimulate and retain their interest and promotes action to assist their understanding and recall of information.
