This introduction session is an overview about change in D&T using a new curriculum initiative. It’s about developing sustainable D&T Curriculum Development projects
Have you seen this logo? You are at the forefront New National initiative
The marriage of three projects to form one new initiative….. It’s about our subject in the 21st Century ……about giving ownership of learning to our students
Background • Invitation to DATA to tender - Jan 2008 • Aim • To provide Secondary D&T Support • Building on success of • CAD/CAM in Schools programme • Electronics in Schools Strategy

Feeding into CAD/CAM & EiSS Frameworks Planning from IET £6K 18 delegates from 6 schools 18 delegates from 6 schools East Midlands Digital D&T ½Day intro and Task 2 sessions show & tell 1Day intro and Task follow up Task Engage with and involvement from IET’s SLO Published website material at:-www.digitaldandt.co.uk
So that’s where our 6 Lincolnshire schools fit’s into the picture….. Part of DATA’s bid to DCSF was about making curriculum projects sustainable if staff members leave the school. Hence teams of 3 staff from different D&T backgrounds from each school (in which the technician is a key player).
The outcomes • Project called “Be Seen and Stay Safe !!!!!!! • Back to each school work as a team and conceptually develop a potential project. • Back on 27th May to work with decide how we can best support the CAD/CAM element. • Trial the outcome with (maybe) one student. • Take lots of photographs at every stage. • We’ll provide each school with details of a WIKI to send work to us. • Get together on 30th June to share our development • We’ll develop a website of your outcomes.
Lets get our students engaged in exciting D&T that is relevant to the 21st C
Links and next steps • DD&T SCs are centres of D&T expertise within each region and therefore able to support and/or collaborate with: • STEMPOINTS • ASSECs • Science Learning Centres • SSAT specialist schools • ASTs
OfSTED report “Education for a technologically advanced nation - D&T in schools 2004-07” OfSTED June 2008 • “Design and technology has to be an essential part of every pupil’s learning experience. The subject encourages creativity and contributes to the personal development of students of all ages. More needs to be doneto ensure that all schools are equally well equipped with the facilities, equipment and specialist teachers required to keep pace with the advancements in our ever changing, hi-tech world.”
OfSTED report Key findings • Design and technology was popular and contributed well to learners’ personal development. Learners were motivated, especially when they had opportunities to develop and realise their ideas. They behaved well, understood the subject’s relevance and learnt to use complex and expensive equipment effectively. • Advanced technologies such as computer-aided designing and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), when used effectively, motivated learners and raised their productivity. However, the gap was growing between schools which used such technology well and those which did not; the latter lacked equipment and the necessary expertise. • Many teachersdid not keep sufficiently up to datebecause of a lack of in-service training. This restricted the development of teaching and learners’ technological capability.
OfSTED report Recommendations DCSF • consider how, in the long term, science, technology, engineering and mathematics research and development might be used to create modern design and technology projects, with mathematical and scientific content, to enable schools to keep pace with technological advances QCA • ensure that GCSE course specifications are effective in promoting creativity and technological rigour in coursework • provide guidance on applying rigorous technological, mathematical and scientific knowledge in designing and making projects TDA • provide training opportunities for primary and secondary teachers to update and maintain their subject and teaching skills … Secondary schools • provide adequate resources for CAD/CAM and ensure that at least one teacher is trained to teach it throughout the age range
……….today • Well start by all making he same project (electronics part) and program the PIC in it using New Wave Concepts “Genie”. • I’ll then suggest some ways forward • look at producing surface mount PCB’s • Look at producing flexible PCBs • Mike will join us and discuss CAD/CAM
Teacher Perceptions It’s a dirty, messy subject Its only for bright boys Its too expensive, software etc Its too hard to teach – ‘I can teach anything except Systems’ The projects are really boring!
