Enrolment information

Students MUST complete or be concurrently studying their second Teaching Area content units prior to enrolling in this unit. This is a Capstone unit requiring students to demonstrate their skills and knowledge in second teaching areas such as Textiles Design, Design & Technology (any material specialisation), or Industrial Technology.

Unit description

Requires students to integrate and demonstrate the culmination of knowledge, skills, and creativity developed and documented throughout their degree. Using a project-based learning approach, students design, plan and manufacture a technology design project that is reflective of their chosen major in teaching areas; demonstrating advanced knowledge and skills, WHS and risk management. To accompany the project a project portfolio will demonstrate an understanding of the ways in which documentation needs to be developed to evidence the design, manufacture and evaluation processes for senior school major design projects.
