2 COURSEWORK AND COURSEWORK ASSESSMENT The Nature of Design and Technology Food Technology Design and Technology Food Technology is an investigative subject and where the analysis and evaluation from practical activities creates innovative new products. Unit 2 is based on design in the human context; it can be either one full design activity or a series of shorter pieces of work all based on individual needs. This gives candidates an opportunity to apply their nutritional knowledge to the design of products. Unit 4 requires candidates to solve their own problem. This could involve reviewing an existing product with diminishing sales and reinventing the product; considering the production of a component and then designing and developing products considering a current issue investigating this and designing and developing products e.g. obesity, food miles, organic issues etcetera. Candidates having decided on their hypothesis then identify the objectives in order to solve their problem in relationship to designing and manufacture. It is necessary to think about and discuss the industrial implications of the production of their final product. 5.1 Teaching coursework Coursework should be an integral part of teaching the specification. Each centre will need to plan the lesson allocation dependent on their particular situation e.g. timetable, frequency of lessons, length of lessons and so on. However, it is important to be aware of the date when coursework should be sent to the AQA or the moderator and still allow time for internal marking. All work must be completed and delivered for the 15 th May in the year of examination. AS level - 50 hours should be dedicated to coursework and of this approximately 25 hours should be practical activities A level - 60 hours should be allocated to coursework and approximately 30 hours for practical activities For both levels candidates need to produce a design folder, however for AS this can be a series of projects or a full design activity. All A2 candidates must complete a full design project where they have identified their own starting point and set their own objectives for considerations related to both design and manufacture. Alongside the coursework, candidates will need to complete a Candidate Record Form which will be required at the moderation process Centres should also be aware that coursework only accounts for half of the AS and A2 qualifications: candidates must equally focus on revision for their examinations. They should also make sure that they use the skills gained when producing the coursework when answering the examination papers. klm Copyright 2007 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. 1

3 5.3 Candidate Record Form Each candidate must complete the record form throughout their coursework and place page references to show where there evidence is within their design folder. They must record the type of research each practical activity (product analysis, experimental work, testing ideas, development, final product) the skills illustrated in making / manufacture the quality control checks included when producing the final product the testing procedures used the techniques used within their design folder Included is an example of a Candidate Record Form for Unit 2 information in most of the sections, for guidance. Please note that this should not be considered exhaustive and is not the only way that the Candidate Record Form can be completed and that the more information that is provided to the moderator, the easier it is for them to see what has happened, why marks have been awarded and whether the AQA standard has been applied correctly in terms of marking. It is vital that the CRF is signed by both candidate and teacher(s) 2 Copyright 2007 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. klm

9 The Design Folder The folder should include work which covers each of the assessment criteria. If a portfolio approach is undertaken (AS only) it is vital that the Candidate Record Form and the Folder clearly indicate which assessment criteria are being covered in the different pieces of work. The following is a guideline to the number of A3 size pages required for units 2 and 4. Note that centres may enter work on A4 if they wish also. UNIT 2 Learning Through Designing and Making CRITERIA 1 Investigation and clarification of problems (introduction, research, analysis and specification CRIERTIA 2 Development of Design Proposal (ideas, development and explanations, Plan of action for final product) CRITERIA 3 Making / Modelling (photographic evidence of all stages of making, quality control checks and final product) CRITERIA 4 Evaluation and Testing (ongoing testing, and final evaluation and Approximate number of pages conclusions) CRITERIA 5 Communication and Presentation (illustrated throughout the work) TOTAL (approximately) UNIT 4 Design and Making Practice Approximate number of pages CRITERIA 1 Context and objectives ( introduction) 1 CRITERIA 2 Plan of action and clarification of problem (plan of action, analysis and specification) [ NB NO RESEARCH SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE FOLDER ONLY THE ANALYSIS] CRITERIA 3 Development of design proposal (ideas development and explanations, plan for final product) CRITERIA 4 Manufacture / modelling (photographic evidence of all stages of manufacture, health and safety, quality controls and final manufactured product, application of industrial practice) CRITERIA 5 Conclusion, evaluation and recommendations (on going testing and final evaluation, including industrial practice, conclusion and recommendations) CRITERIA 6 Communication and presentation. Illustrated throughout the work TOTAL (approximately) Candidates need to take and keep photographic evidence of all practical work specific skills, quality controls, health and safety and finished products. When the work is sent for moderation it should be removed from the folder and sheets should then be securely fastened together for postal moderation. 8 Copyright 2007 AQA and its licensors.

10 Assessment of coursework All design folders must be assessed using the Design and Technology Criteria, and teachers are required to show clearly how the marks have been awarded. If there is more than one teacher or there are two groups taught by different teachers internal moderation needs to take place. It is essential there is consistency within a centre s marking. AQA have produced the following marks sheets for the use of teachers to show where marks have been awarded for each aspect of the work. This can be photocopied and sent with each individual candidates design folder. When completing the assessment sheet, teachers need to find the statement which best fits their candidates work. On completion of each section, award a mark which best fits the candidate s work, e.g. if a candidate is given Band 1 in each section then decide between the marks in that section (i.e. outstanding work in each area then the top mark should be awarded, whilst if the candidate just meets the criteria then the lowest mark should be awarded). If a candidate s work straggles several bands similarly decide where the best fit mark should be. However, if a candidate achieves the top band for one criterion and not in any other criteria then the top band marks should not be used. klm Copyright 2007 AQA and its licensors.

22 Preparing work for moderation Check candidates have completed their Candidate Record Form. Check all the candidates have signed the declaration that the work is their own Complete all marking and record the marks and annotation. Remove folder wallets from work and securely attach all the sheets together Make sure the front cover clearly shows the following information - candidate name, number and centre. Sign the Centre Declaration Sheet. If there less than 21 candidates send all the work to the moderator, if there are more candidates send the Centre Mark Sheet to the moderator; the moderator will return this indicating which candidates work is required for moderation. All the work with the appropriate paper work should be posted to the moderator for the 15 th May. The name and address of the moderator will be sent to the examination officer in advance. Any work not required must remain at the centre until after the results are known. Moderation This is the process of ensuring that standards are aligned within and across centres. The coursework marks submitted by centres is moderated by the awarding body against marking criteria specified in the specification. Moderation is carried out by an AQA moderator, who will carry out a detailed scrutiny of all the work of a sample of candidates from each centre. Please note that moderators do not mark coursework per se but check to ensure that the AQA standard has been applied correctly. On the basis of this inspection, it will be decided whether to accept the centre s assessment adjust the assessments to bring the whole cohort into line with national standards ask for a further sample ask for the work of all candidates or request the centre to reassess or internally standardise their marks. Normally a centre s judgement about the order of merit will be accepted. However, if discrepancies are discovered, AQA reserves the right to alter the order of merit and inform the centre accordingly. Work will be returned to centres, although AQA has the right to retain work for archive purposes. klm Copyright 2007 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. 21

23 Support for Coursework Support for teachers in relation to the coursework unit takes several forms. Feedback forms each summer after moderation, centres will receive a feedback form reflecting on the marking of candidates work. If centres are finding difficulties / large adjustments have been made then advice will be offered by the moderator. Annual meetings these will be held on a regional basis usually in the Autumn term, they are designed to support new centres or those who had difficulty marking to the AQA standard. Copies of the material used in these meetings is sent to all centres entered for the specification as a matter of course. Exemplar coursework examples of coursework will be available for centres, to illustrate the expected levels for various grade thresholds and approaches to teaching. This will be available after the first cohort of candidates has completed their coursework. Coursework advisers these will be appointed by AQA and each centre will be informed of their individual advisor whom they can contact by post, telephone or throughout the academic year. Please note that the adviser does not visit the centre. 22 Copyright 2007 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. klm
