Learning Area or Integrated Investigation
Year Level:
Mathematics and Design and Technology
Background Information: Generic Class Statement
This term a focus area of the class has been to work in a small group on the design, making and sale of a product to
members of their school community. The class identified the issues and process that they would need to undertake to
design, make and then sell their product.
Task/Starting Point/Big Idea: Generic Class Statement
As the Adelaide Royal Show was to take place in this term the class decided to make the product for sale a Show Bag. It
was decided that each group would have a budget of $10.00 and any profit made would go toward the class end of year
excursion. Each group decided on a target market and then through informed decisions proposed what a show bag could
contain, its design and its cost to produce. They then constructed the bag/s, advertised and sold their product.
Assessing Criteria: Individual Statement
The student negotiated criteria for assessment included:


Collaborative group work
Fulfilment of design
requirements




Data collection and analysis

A report on the success of their business
This criteria involved self, peer and teacher assessment.
Process: Generic Class Statement
Using collaborative group work decisions on the role of group members and the anticipated target market were made.
Groups then designed a survey to gather data about the content and design of their show bag. This data was collected
and analysed and information regarding all costs was gathered. The group then constructed their bag/s and their content,
advertised the bag/s and then on market day offered the bag/s for sale. A report was then presented on the success of
their business venture and recommendations for improved practice.
