DVC Level 1 Achievement Standards Lesley Pearce, National Facilitator for Technology, Team Solutions, Auckland University
AS (1.31) 3 credits external Produce instrumental, multi-view orthographic drawings that communicate technical features of own design ideas Also 3 credits numeracy
Assessment Specifications Use conventions to communicate technical features Students own design ideas From a design brief Third angle orthographic projection Two or more relevant projected views Evidence of projection Evidence of construction
Evidence for Achieved Use of instrumental drawing techniques and conventions 2D drawings must describe technical features of a design Technical features – visible surface features – dimensions – material – scale
Evidence for Merit Measured multi-view instrumental drawings Clearly communicate detail of the technical features of a design (eg features not visible in the main outline, complex shape or form) Conventions applied appropriately e.g. title blocks, labelling, indication of scale, key line types, construction lines/outlines, dimensioning, text
Detail of technical features of a design Not visible in the main outline: Sectional views Auxilary views Hidden detail/drawings internal and external features or components of the design
Evidence for Excellence Produce accurate 2D drawings In-depth information about technical features of a design is shown e.g. sectional views that explain technical features

AS (1.32) 3 credits external Produce instrumental paraline drawings to communicate own design ideas. Also 3 credits numeracy
Assessment Specifications Use instruments and drawing techniques Response to a design brief NO perspective drawings Paraline = isometric, trimetric, dimetric, oblique, planometric
Achievement Evidence 3d instrumental drawing Techniques and conventions used to describe design features Describe includes but not limited to visible surface features, scale
High Achievement
Merit Evidence Accurately produce Clearly communicate details of design ideas Detail - visual information about Internal components (not visible in main outline) Features of a design and/or complex shape and/or form
Low Merit
High Merit
Excellence Evidence Precise drawings – accurate measurement, line, intensity, line clarity Effectively communicate In-depth information – a series of instrumental drawings, e.g. exploded, sequential, cut away 3D view
