<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>I saw your question addressed to Lorraine, I hope you don’t
mind if I offer you a way of looking at it to see if this helps you too.
Because I know when I saw it on the exam last year, I thought ‘Holy sh*t
! – where did that one come from?’ I could remember that it was
something that was addressed in a presentation on the new study design given at
a DATTA or HEV session by Lorraine, but only touched on. Certainly I
hadn’t addressed it with the students and didn’t expect to see it
on the exam. But remember all the students & teachers were in the same
boat. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>Anyway, I felt it seems a bit blurred too the differences –
until I looked at as not a whole heap of words but as the ‘elements
& principals’ concepts that we do in Art. All the students are aware
of these ideas and terminologies from there art classes and most get that. Its
there a bit in the VELS stuff for Technology too. So I say to the students
– these are your elements and principles in technology/design. So your design
factors & fundamentals are the elements. The applications are your
principles – how you apply them, how you are using your
fundamentals/elements. The page is a really a good summary of what parts of the
study design are all about. Read it through with them or give it to them
as home work to read, close the book. Make it like a little competition with
the students in teams - How many design factors can your team come up with? How
many fundamentals can your team come up with for …….? Etc. They do
know it, they and we just don’t realise that. I am going to do this
little competition stuff with my year 11s as a part of our orientation for yr
12 soon. As a way of introducing the topic to them. Will do ti with the yr 11s
into yr 12 as well. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>Hope this helps. I don’t think students will be expected to
be able to list out right fundamentals and applications – design factors,
probably –yes. The others – no. But then again ……..
maybe I should/we should check with Lorraine. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
