Description

This online course is designed to provide teachers with engaging resources, including a complete unit of work, for the new Engineered Systems context area. This course is a fantastic opportunity for design and technology teachers to get hands-on experience with designing, prototyping and testing an engineered system that demonstrates force, motion, and energy. Teachers will gain a clear understanding of how to follow an engineering design process to create and communicate innovative solutions to authentic problems. Teachers will learn about the engineering design principles that underpin this process.   Gaining knowledge and practical skills needed to create student projects that produce sustainable engineered systems, machines, and structures. As an industrial designer and experienced engineering teacher, I can provide you with some useful tips and strategies to engage all your students in studying the new syllabus in the following sessions:

  • Introduction to Engineered Systems and unpacking course content and outcomes
  • Practical focus – design, communicate and construct an engineered systems
  • Theory focus – learn engineering concepts and about the role of engineers in our society.

Audience

This course is fantastic for teachers who are teaching Technology Mandatory from the new syllabus in 2019 who wish to enhance their strategies, content knowledge and resources. Year 7 and Year 8.

Includes:

  • Functional project to make (Pinball Machine)
  • Design folio
  • Supporting resources
  • Unit of work

Sessions

Session 1 – Introduction to Engineered Systems and unpacking course content and outcomes.

  • Review students prior knowledge of engineered systems
  • Learn what makes a suitable engineered system project for Stage 4 students.
  • Explore the syllabus requirements for design and production processes.

Session 2 – Practical focus – design, communicate and construct an engineered systems

  • Ideate using design thinking techniques to develop students critical and creative thinking skills.
  • Explore how sketching, modelling and CAD are used in engineering design to communicate design solutions.
  • Learn how to construct an engineered system using a broad range of materials to produce a quality product.

Session 3 – Theory focus – learn engineering concepts and the role of engineers in our society.

  • Investigate how force, motion and energy operate within engineered systems to optimise design solutions.

    Not suitable for year 8- design construction of the pinball would be challenging

    Lukkana Wangdechawat, Liverpool Girls High School

    Way too complicated for stage 4 students and require way too many materials in the project. The project required quite a precise skills to successfully constructed.

    Informative in delivering relevant projects and inspirational in that I was able to come up with a lot of other projects and options to get the outcomes in a fun way for my students and inspire them towards further inquiry

    Great course but the materials video sound cut out half way and came back at the end

    The course was very practicable and due to being all through online videos, I could complete things in my downtime / planning lessons. It allowed me to up-skill in materials and engineering in a practical and engaging manner and has removed any concerns I had about the concepts for Technology Mandatory. An excellent course – thank you!

    The course wasnt really what i had expected. The booklets and worksheet need to be developed better. I paid for this course out of my own pocket thinking that it was a complete ready to go unit of work however i still needed to design lesson and worksheets to go along with the theroy and the CAD files are not very good. I had to pretty much develop the learning resources myself. The only real usefuf thing to me where the instructional videos on how to make the pinball machine and the program. Other than that i dont think this course was worth the money i spent on it.

    I love the project and the resources. My students are going to be thrilled with making this project. It would be good to get a copy of the “Theory” videos so we can refresh before we teach those lessons.
