Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Plan and organise requirements
  • 1.1 Interpret design briefs, in consultation with clients or colleagues
  • 1.2 Research financial, physical and human resources required for developing design concept to prototype stage
  • 1.3 Investigate environmental, ethical and technical factors that impact on selection and use of resources
  • 1.4 Select and prepare resources based on research into designs and approaches used for similar wearable objects, and relevant standards or legislative requirements
2. Test design approaches
  • 2.1 Produce preliminary visuals
  • 2.2 Experiment with range of techniques and processes to test design approaches
  • 2.3 Evaluate, challenge and refine testing processes
  • 2.4 Critique own work and seek feedback as required
