| NEW ZEALAND Achievement Standard Subject Reference: Graphics 3.5 Develop and present a solution to a media or technical illustration design brief Level 3 Credits 5 Assessment Internal This achievement standard requires developing and presenting a design solution to a media or technical illustration design brief. It gives students the opportunity to gain practical appreciation of the importance of design in improving the quality of people’s lives. Achievement Criteria Achievement · Develop a solution for the brief · Present a final design solution Achievement with Merit · Develop a quality solution relative to the brief · Present a final design solution, showing evidence of good presentation skills Achievement with Excellence · Develop a refined solution relative to the brief · Present refined design ideas using the most appropriate methods. High quality presentation skills are consistently used. Explanatory Notes 1 This achievement standard is related to Graphics Education, Guidelines for Years 9 to 13, Learning Media, Ministry of Education, 2001, Level 3 descriptors, pp. 29–42. 2 Presentation may include: design sketches, working drawings, notes, research, models, mock-ups, audio, visual, oral presentation to a group, 3D rendered pictorial sketches or drawings, digital slide show, computer generated images, and photography. 3 As students work through the practical implications of creating their solution they will engage in a series of events that support the further development and creation of the final design. A refined solution will include details of these events as ongoing analysis and reflection at each stage of the design process. These events will improve the value of the solution in relation to the specifications in the brief. 4 Drawings should be in accordance with current codes of practice and New Zealand Standards where appropriate, eg the NZS/AS 1100 series of standards. 5 In developing and presenting a solution, students will be assessed on their ability to develop and communicate design concepts and solutions related to the broad area of advertising or technical illustration. Students will be expected to analyse the nature of the problem and generate new solutions or produce alternatives to existing designs. Students will be encouraged to use the computer to generate design and layout ideas and present solutions in a variety of ways, including final copy for printing or presentation to clients. 6 Design briefs could be based on: · advertising, marketing and selling · newspaper or magazine layout · fashion design · packaging and presentation · company literature and brochures · technical illustration of products · symbolic charts and sequencing diagrams · web page design. 7 Design considerations may include: fitness for purpose, ergonomics, user friendliness, economic and social needs, restraints and resources, and specifications. 8 When developing a solution, reference must be made to the key design principles of aesthetics and function, and include references to elements of design which are derived from these principles, such as shape, form, rhythm, balance, proportion, colour and contrast. |
