5. Aspect 1 - Procedures Detailed materials cutting list included. Appropriate materials and equipment identified for the various aspects of the realisation stage of the process using detailed annotated Flow charts which include quality control measures. A Plan of Production that clearly shows the sequence of operations to be carried out for realizing the design is done in advance e.g. Algorithm. Equipment, materials and estimates for time allowance for each operation stated in the Plan of Production The plan is followed. Practical work is completed in a precise and methodical manner By observation, practical work is completed. Recognises that with challenging design work things rarely go exactly as expected, the plan of production is modified accordingly in response to fresh ideas, feedback and advice e.g. revised plan of production If appropriate decisions/ modifications to Plan are justified. Aspect 2 - Use of equipment and materials Diary of manufacture shows photographic evidence of how design developed and the skilful use of materials and equipment using technical terminology Photographs of the final outcome show skill and accuracy in manufacture The Plan of Production clearly shows the health and safety factors which need to be considered when realising the solution Diary of manufacture shows explicit evidence of how health and safety has been considered at all stages of realisation Aspect 3 - Techniques Evidence shows student has mastered a wide range of techniques and equipment in practical work By the product he finished, he can master techniques.
