[Textiles and Technology] advice needed - VCE textiles

[Treverton, Melissa J]

Hi Sam,

I ask my students to write a short paragraph stating the level of quality expected (commercial, high, medium, low)and justify why. (i.e. my client is expecting a medium level of quality as the piece is for a costume party and will be worn on one occasion only, not needing to be cleaned.) Then I ask them to make dot point statements explicitly stating what that level of quality will look like. (i.e.  All seams will be secured at the ends; Hems will be neat and even, the garment will fit my client perfectly to her body shape, any fastenings will be straight, evening spaced and secured)

It does not need to be too detailed, just so they are considering quality and identifying what that might look like.

Hope that helps,
Melissa

Hi textiles teachers, can you offer any advice to Sam?  Thanks!

Dear PD Teachers,
Ok, so my Year 12's are finalising their briefs and evaluation criteria, and it is mentioned in a number of places to write a statement of expected quality. To what detail does this need to be in? My thoughts are that it should involved specifically, exactly what needs to be overlocked, sewn, ect, as the 'designer' is using the brief to clarify exactly what the client wants, and the client doesn't always have a clear understanding of quality? Any ideas? Thoughts? Examples? THANKS
Sam
