There are 9 marks available for the appropriate use of //"Writen and graphical techniques including ICT and Computer Aided Design (CAD where appropriate) to generate, develop, model and communicate".//

This work will be found throughout your folder. To get full marks, you need to have used **written comunication, other media** and **ICT** to good effect. Here are some examples of each. Remember that each example may be from any section of the coursework folder, not just the Development of Ideas section

You should select an appropriate method for producing a ‘working drawing’ for your 2D and 3D item. For example; a 3D item may be best shown using an Orthographic Projection. If the product has a lot of constructional detail, an ‘exploded isometric’ might be most suitable. A 2D item might be best shown as plan view only using XaraX or similar.
