Example+design+question

The design question in your exam may look a bit different to this one, but the way of answering it is the same. Everyone should be able to score full marks for this question.


 * [[image:Example_Q3_pic_1.JPG width="515" height="389"]] || The aim of this question is to develop 2 ideas that meet 8 specification points. Don't forget this!

Here is the whole question. The student has read the question slowly and carefully. They have highlighted the 8 key requirements of the specification (you can see the circles around the words). ||

 * [[image:Example_Q3_pic_3.JPG width="518" height="716"]] || Here is all of design idea 1. The drawing is simple and clear. It shows detail. It is a sketch. There is lots of annotation to help explain how the specification has been met. ||
 * [[image:Example_Q3_pic_4.JPG width="521" height="674"]] || Here is the second idea. Each specification point has been met in a different way. You cannot get more marks if any of these points are the same as your first design so make sure they really are different. ||
 * [[image:Example_Q3_pic_5.JPG width="525" height="400"]] || The candidate has used annotation to show how each point has been met. This is very important. You can explain things that might be hard to draw. ||
 * [[image:Example_Q3_pic_6.JPG width="529" height="400"]] || Add different views of the product. This plan view shows how the decoration has been added to the top. ||
 * [[image:Example_Q3_pic_7.JPG width="535" height="404"]] || The ticks show where each mark has been awarded. The examiner can see and read about each one. ||
 * [[image:Example_Q3_pic_8.JPG width="538" height="410"]] || Annotation helps to explain clearly. This candidate has used a key to make the layers in the dessert easy to identify.

Remember: This is not about how good you are at drawing or how good your idea is. It is simply aboiut developing two different ideas that meet every point of a specification. Use drawing and annotation fully to achieve this.

When you finish, go back and check:

Can you read in the annotation how every point has been met?//**
 * //Can you see in the drawing how every point has been met?
