Course Overview
This course is entry level into design that has a focus on learning how to design and how to present developed outcomes using a range of techniques like freehand, rendering, CAD and instrumental working drawings. NCEA L1 Assignments require the learner to research given problems and find solutions that are a best fit and then communicate the function and aesthetics in a visual manner. The skills and techniques required to visually communicate developed outcomes learnt at year 10 will be enhanced to the expectations required at year 11 Note Design and design modification is something that everybody is doing all the time. This course is extremely relevant to anyone aspiring to progress to higher forms of learning like Tertiary, Trades, Manufacturing, Architecture, Engineering or just being an inventor or innovator. https://www.nzqa.govt.nz/ncea/subjects/graphics-dvc/levels/ The work centres around finding solutions to given problems. Skills and techniques involved include: freehand sketching, instrumental drawings, both orthographic and pictorial (3rd angle and isometric/Oblique) Presentation quality, rendering techniques This course leads into Level 2 DVC
