ABLEWA Stage B
ABLEWA B stage description
In Stage B students explore technologies, including its purpose and how technologies meet personal and social needs.
Students examine the characteristics and properties of some technologies from one of the technologies contexts:
- Engineering principles and systems
- Food and fibre production
- Food specialisations
- Materials and technologies specialisations.
With teacher support, students communicate simple design ideas.
Students experience how designed solutions meet their needs.
Knowledge and understanding
Technologies and society
Explore the use of familiar designed solutions to meet their needs (VCDSTS004)
Technologies contexts
Explore the characteristics and properties of familiar designed solutions in at least one technologies context (VCDSTC005)
Processes and production skills
Creating Designed Solutions
Experience and explore how designed solutions are created and produced safely to meet personal needs(VCDSCD006)
Achievement standard
By the end of Stage B, students are using some familiar designed solutions appropriately to meet their needs.
With guidance, students explore designed solutions in at least one technologies context. They experience designed solution ideas and select materials and components based on personal preferences.
Students follow a design process step by step and use tools safely when prompted.
