Planning and Managing

Throughout your work from Investigation through to Evaluation, you will need to spend a good amount of time planning and managing your project.
In years 7 and 8, you will use project management processes to coordinate production of designed solutions, including:
  • explaining and interpreting drawings, planning and production steps needed to produce products, services or environments for specific purposes
  • organising time, evaluating decisions and managing resources to ensure successful project completion and protection of the work space and local environment
  • investigating the time needed for each step of production
  • identifying and managing risks in the development of various projects, for example assessing uncertainty and risk in relation to long-term health and environmental impacts

In year 9, you will develop project plans to plan and manage projects individually and collaboratively taking into consideration time, cost, risk and production processes:
  • producing, explaining and interpreting drawings; and planning production timelines using digital technologies;
  • creating production flow charts using digital technologies to ensure efficient, safe and sustainable sequences;
  • establishing materials and equipment needs using digital technologies such as spreadsheets;
  • collaborating to develop production plans for equitable distribution of work; and 
  • investigating manufacturing processes to identify strategies to enhance production.
