Developing Ideas in Design Technology: how to develop a creative concept

[select and develop a solution after consideration of time, cost, skill and resources – IG]

[clarify main features/aspects of proposed solution

evaluate the proposed solutions regarding the specification points – IG]

[simple comparative testing leading to the reasoned selection of materials and processes for specific design and making tasks – IG]

use modelling and trialling where appropriate to test aspects of the proposed solution

specify details of form, materials and construction/production methods

[developing and refining ideas using further research and analysis and checking against the design specification
– evaluating possible solutions through a variety of techniques and selecting one solution for
development]

[coming soon]
