Year 11 Design Class | Creative Industries Faculty

Year 11 Design Class | Creative Industries Faculty

Have you ever considered how the design of hand-held products can impact our experience with them?

Our assessment of 'ergonomics and semantics' delves into this topic.

Hand-held product design has become increasingly complex with modern advancements in manufacturing processes and technology.

To create successful products, it's crucial to understand how people react and interact with physical objects.

Our assessment challenges students to explore the world of physical form by designing a simple hand-held product.

This project teaches students how designers use drawing and low-fidelity prototypes to generate ideas, seek feedback on their designs to improve them, and emphasise the importance of documenting the design process.

Join us to discover the relationship between form and function in hand-held products!

More photos from this class can be found on MyCC News HERE.

This coming ANZAC Day, we would like to assemble a Photo Collage as a display of gratitude for those in our community who served our country through the Armed Services.

So we are seeking any images depicting your family’s involvement in the Defence Forces past or present.

This could be a picture of a family member who has or is currently serving, a picture of you or your children with medals from a departed family member, or something we haven't thought of yet.

We would like to honour our Canterbury families who have given their time, energy and sometimes their lives, in the defence of our country this ANZAC Day.

Please include with any images a little information about the people you would like honoured – Name, Rank, where they served, when they served, and a short background story about them.

These can be sent to our Director of Student Development Mr Chris Nield - 

Thank you!
