Criterion C: Creating the Solution

Dear Students,
As you embark on criterion C, ensure you follow the assessment criteria and go through each strand accordingly.Ensure you have completed the product( a model tuk tuk) using:
1. Your preferred materials.

When creating remember to complete process journal addressing these areas: a)material used, b) place/venue, c)Time, d) Duration, e) Detailed description and ) day. Each day 1, Day 2 ,....
The process journal can be send to me via Dropbox or pasted in workbook.

Remember to use the criteria all the time.

Regards
Victor

(i) Construct a logical plan that describes the efficient use of time and resources, sufficient for peers to be able to follow to create the solution.

• construct a series of logical steps to create the solution, using charts, diagrams and text that include aspects of quality control and quality assurance
• construct a plan to create the solution that makes effective use of resources and time
• construct a clear and concise plan that peers will be able to follow to create the solution

Objective C strand 1

                                                                  
Gantt chart/slippage chart
A Gantt chart is a project-management tool used to provide an overview of a process. A Gantt chart divides the manufacture of a product into small tasks. It indicates the time estimated for each of these tasks and theresources required. It does not provide a detailed set of instructions, but instead is an overview to self-assess progress with a project. You should indicate when each task is complete.

Gantt chart example

• Gantt charts using Excel and free online software

A slippage chart goes one step further than the Gantt chart in that it has room below each task to mark when it was completed (in green), allowing you to identify when they are behind in their plans and take action to get back on schedule.

Slippage chart example

The following questions can help you consider your planning.

• Does your plan contain a sequence of logical steps?
• Is the use of resources explained clearly?
• Have you made sure you have enough time to complete your product?
• Have you given time for practising or learning a new skill?
• Have you allowed extra time in case something goes wrong?
• Have you considered alternative ways of creating the solution?
• Have you planned for testing at appropriate times in the manufacturing process?

---

(ii) Demonstrate excellent technical skill when making the solution

• develop manipulative skills to effectively use a wide range of tools, techniques and equipment
• use a wide range of tools and equipment proficiently to create high-quality solutions
• ensure a safe working environment for themselves and others

---

(iii) Follow the plan to create the solution, which functions as intended

• independently follow the plan to produce the solution, which functions as intended
• manage time effectively to produce the solution to the deadline stated in the plan

You will demonstrate that the planning process was sufficiently thorough if the final product matches the planning drawing and no changes were made to the plan, in whatever form it was presented. 

If the drawings/diagrams and the plan match what has been made, then you have followed the plan.

If you do not follow the plan, it will usually result in the solution not fully meeting the specification and/or matching the design detailed in the drawings/diagrams.

---

(iv) Fully justify changes made to the chosen design and plan when making the solution

By the end of year 4 you should be able to:

• justify, through the use of drawings/diagrams, any changes made to the design while making the solution and how they affected the plan

As you implement your plans, you will often come to a point where you will have to modify the plan or the design. You will need to ensure that you detail and justify any changes that you make during the creation process.
If you do not make any changes to your product or plan, this strand does not have to be addressed with evidence. However, if any changes are made, you must address this strand

---

(iv)(a) Present the solution as a whole

• present the solution in an appropriate format that shows all details of construction

A digital design product will be presented as either an executable file or readable file.
A product design outcome will be presented as a set of photographic images, which must show detail and scale.

Criterion C: Creating the Solution

- You need to ensure all these strands/objectives are made in your final product.

nConstruct a plan, which describes the efficient use of time and resources, sufficient for peers to be able to create the solution.

nDemonstrate excellent technical skills when making the solution.

nFollow the plan to create the solution, which functions as intended plan.

nFully justify changes made to the chosen design and plan when making the solution.

nPresent the solution as a whole, either;

nA) in electronic form 

Your Task includes the following;

- Construct a detailed and logical plan, which describes the efficient use of time and resources, 
sufficient for peers to be able to follow to create the solution.
-  Create the product that demonstrates excellent technical skills usage.

 In this stage, there should be clear evidence that the plan is followed,  the final product 
should meets the design specifications and should be a close as possible to your chosen 
design, and that the solution functions as intended and is presented appropriately.

 It's expected that a dated process journal is kept with detailed screenshots justifying any 
improvements in your product development progress. The screenshots will normally show
 how a particular complex techniques are applied before and after.

Design Guide.

Criterion C: Creating the solution
0	The student does not reach a standard described by any of the descriptors below.
1 — 2	The student demonstrates minimal technical skills when making the solution, creates the solution, which functions poorly and is presented in an incomplete form.
3 — 4	The student lists the main steps in a plan that contains some details, resulting in peers having difficulty following the plan to create the solution, demonstrates satisfactory technical skills when making the solution, creates the solution, which partially functions and is adequately presented, states one change made to the chosen design or plan when making the solution.
5 — 6	The student lists the steps in a plan, which considers time and resources, resulting in peers being able to follow the plan to create the solution, demonstrates competent technical skills when making the solution, creates the solution, which functions as intended and is presented appropriately, states one change made to the chosen design and plan when making the solution.
7 — 8	The student outlines a plan, which considers the use of resources and time, sufficient for peers to be able to follow to create the solution, demonstrates excellent technical skills when making the solution, follows the plan to create the solution, which functions as intended and is presented appropriately, lists the changes made to the chosen design and plan when making the solution.
