CONTEXT

Learners determine their own project that develop solutions to needs + opportunities by visualizing their ideas using a wide variety of drawings, 2D, 3D + coding digital technologies informed by ‘intervention by design’ creative thinking. To demonstrate their final project idea, learners will document their start to finish progress with annotated images & video content created through out their project including dialog from clients + end users.    

Throughout their project, 'learners will develop broad technological knowledge that will equip them to participate in society as informed citizens & provide a platform for future digital technology related education and careers' NZC

EXPLANITORY NOTES

3. Your project context needs to refer to the wider social & physical environment in which technological development occurs.
4. A conceptual design clearly communicates a proposed technological outcome that has the potential to address the brief. It is a detailed description of how the outcome would look and function. Conceptual designs can be presented using a variety of techniques which may include but are not limited to: freehand sketches, diagrams, technical drawings, scale models, computer simulations, written descriptions, details of materials, components and/or assembly instructions. 
​5. The brief used for this standard must allow judgement of an outcome’s fitness for purpose in the broadest sense. Fitness for purpose in the broadest sense relates to the outcome described by the conceptual design, as well as the practices used to develop the conceptual design. Judgements about fitness for purpose may include:  considerations of the outcome’s technical and social acceptability  sustainability of resources used  ethical nature of testing practices  cultural appropriateness of trialling procedures  determination of life cycle, maintenance, ultimate disposal  health and safety.
6. ​Functional modelling is used to explore and evaluate developing design ideas and conceptual designs. It is undertaken to gather evidence on all aspects of the outcome including its likely technical feasibility and social acceptability

ACHIEVED - MERIT - EXCELLENCE

ACHIEVED
​Develop a conceptual design considering fitness for purpose in the broadest sense involves:
1. establishing conceptual designs through generating and evaluating design ideas informed by research, including the analysis of existing outcomes and the context considerations

2. using evidence from research and functional modelling, including feedback from stakeholders, to evaluate conceptual designs

3. communicating a final conceptual design for an outcome

4. explaining the potential of the proposed outcome to meet the brief

MERIT
​Develop a REFINED conceptual design considering fitness for purpose in the broadest sense involves:
5. ongoing exploration and evaluation of design ideas to determine their suitability for inclusion in conceptual designs

6.using evidence from ongoing research and functional modelling, including feedback from stakeholders, to evaluate the potential of the proposed outcome to meet the brief. 

EXCELLENCE
Develop a JUSTIFIED conceptual design considering fitness for purpose in the broadest sense involves:
​7. synthesising evidence from ongoing research and functional modelling, including feedback from stakeholders, to substantiate the potential of the proposed outcome to meet the brief.
