Design Project

The design project represents 40% of the final assessment so it provides a great opportunity for your students to think and work like a real designer. The links that students can make to user centred design, socially responsive design, sustainability are really exciting and should enable some really innovative and creative solution to be realised.

With the stresses and strains of the Diploma Programme it is helpful for student to have some guidelines that get them to focus in on the new assessment criteria and the example of the DP Student Guide might help you, provide a loose framework for their reference.

The Assessment Rubric DT Project is a newly added resource completed by DT teachers from around Asia during May 2016. It is uploaded as a PDF below too - this seems to have retained the formatting best.
