General NotesTeachers should refer to section 9.2 of the syllabus explaining the Design Project and to the
notes for guidance.
Candidates should choose one project from the two options (1 or 2) given below and produce:
(1) a detailed A3 Design Folio showing the development of the design process, from the
situation through to the plans for the solution. Costing and the final evaluation of the
project should appear in the folio,
di a well constructed mock-up/model of the chosen solution, in any suitable material, and
(iii) | a well constructed artefact of the chosen solution.
Option 1
Situation
Some people like to read whilst in bed but they experience some difficulties in getting comfort.
Brief
Design and make an adjustable artefact that will support the reading material while in bed.
Option 2
Situation
The agriculture department at your school runs a poultry project. A visit to the fowl run has
indicated that chickens drink water from a bowl. The problem is that the water consistently gets
soiled and wasted as chickens fly and jump into the bowl.
Brief
Design and make a scaled unit that can contain a minimum of three litres of water and has
minimal space in order to prevent chickens jumping in. Furthermore, the unit should have
technology that allows water to gradually flow in when the water level gets below 30 mm in the
drinking unit.
N.B. Candidates are also encouraged, where possible and relevant, to combine different
materials e.g. wood and metal or plastic in realising their designs.
