** Five key things your students need to know for VCE PD&T exam success
------------------------------------------------------------
Last year many students struggled with a number of elements on the 2013 VCE exam. Professional learning presenter Jacinta O'Leary believes there are five key areas that students need to know for exam success:

1. The product design process. Knowing which steps fit into which stages and how each step supports the process of design is key for success.
2. The product design factors. Students need to understand their parameters and apply them in product design analysis.
3. What applies to one-off situations and mass production. Students need to differentiate the processes in one off and mass production situations.
4. Quality measures for production. Students may be asked to explain quality measures in their material category.
5. The design option and construction processes. Students need to practice drawing and annotating the design option and possibly a number of construction processes, especially a difficult one.

If you'd like to know more about how you can boost your students' results, bring your students along for a PD&T exam preparation session.
