Instructions to teachers/tutors and/or invigilators

The set task will be released in January each year with the supervised assessment undertaken before the submission date specified by Pearson. Learners are required to develop a design concept in response to a client brief.

There are three stages of development that need to be completed prior to the supervised period of assessment. It is recommended that learners spend approximately:

ÂÂ 8 hours on researchÂÂ 8 hours on a Statement of IntentÂÂ 15 hours experimenting with skills and techniques to develop a design

product

Learners will need to complete the majority of these stages within the studio/classroom environment where they will have access to specialist equipment and resources. This will allow teachers/tutors to monitor learner’s activity and progress to ensure that all work produced can be authenticated.

Learners will undertake a set task comprised of 20 hours of supervised assessment. This is made up of:

ÂÂ 15 hours shaping/refining the final product under informal supervisionÂÂ 5 hours to select work and create a digital portfolio under formal

supervision

During the 15 hours of informal supervision for shaping/refining the final product:

ÂÂ the majority of the work must be produced in the supervised environment

ÂÂ work and resources can be brought in and out of the supervised environment, but these must be monitored so the learners final product can be authenticated.

During the five hours of formal supervision for producing the digital portfolio:

ÂÂ all work must be produced in the supervised environmentÂÂ only permitted materials for the set task can be brought into the

supervised environmentÂÂ during any permitted break and at the end of each session materials must

be kept securely and no items removed from the supervised environmentÂÂ there should be no internet access available

S56569A 3Turn over

At the end of the 20 supervised hours the teacher/tutor or invigilator will confirm that all learner work was completed independently as part of the authentication submitted to Pearson.

All learner work for the set task must be completed independently. Learners must save and/or document their work regularly and ensure that all materials can be identified as their work.

The set task is a formal external assessment and must be conducted with reference to the instructions in this task booklet and the Information for Conducting External Assessments (ICEA) document to ensure that the supervised period is conducted correctly and that learners have the opportunity to carry out the required activities independently.

Teachers/tutors and invigilators are responsible for maintaining security and for reporting issues to Pearson.

Centres are free to arrange the supervised period how they wish, provided it’s within the timetabled period specified by Pearson and the five hours for producing the digital portfolio are under the level of control specified, and in accordance with the conduct procedures.

Outcomes for submission

Each learner will need to submit three documents on completion of the supervised assessment period.

ÂÂ A digital portfolio of between 15 and 20 A4 pages, saved as a PDF fileÂÂ Evidence of a final design outcome presented in a digital formatÂÂ An authentication sheet

Set brief

Be Creative is a new website for young designers which allows them to showcase their talents and helps them find work. Each month the website sets a theme to challenge young designers. The theme this month is ‘Networks’. Be Creative will select the best designs to feature on its homepage.

Your response to the theme ‘Networks’ must incorporate one of the current trending topics on Be Creative.

These are:

ÂÂ natureÂÂ roboticsÂÂ neighbourhoods

You are required to target your work at young people aged 16–21.

You will need to demonstrate your ability to understand and work within the design process. This will involve conducting research, developing a statement of intent, developing and refining work. You will need to produce a digital design portfolio and evidence of your final design outcome. Your digital portfolio will contain your research, a statement of intent based on your research and documentation of the development of your design work. You must communicate your final design concept in the most appropriate format to clearly demonstrate your ideas. This could be through:

ÂÂ modelsÂÂ prototypes or samplesÂÂ hand rendered designsÂÂ digital designsÂÂ concepts boardsÂÂ any combination of these

This is not to be considered an exhaustive list

All outcomes will be assessed on the quality of the design, how well it addresses the brief and how clearly you have communicated it. If you are creating a design for a 3D product, the final outcome does not need to be built/made, however you may choose to make a model, prototype or sample if it supports the clear communication of your design concept. If you choose to physically produce a 3D design, you will not be assessed on the quality of your building/making skills. This should be considered when planning the time spent creating and refining designs versus making them.

Development Stages

You must complete three stages of development prior to the supervised period of assessment.

Research

You must carry out significant research before beginning your design piece. You should research and prepare resources to generate ideas in response to the brief. You will need to document the work you do as evidence for your digital portfolio. It is recommended that you spend approximately 8 hours on the research stage.

Statement of Intent

You must prepare a statement of intent for your project that communicates your initial ideas. This can include any combination of sketches, notes and annotations, written outlines, digital mock-ups, photographs and planning documents (e.g. time, materials, equipment, techniques, processes and other practical considerations). You will need to document the work you do as evidence for your digital portfolio. It is recommended that you spend approximately 8 hours on your statement of intent.

Development of Design Work

You must produce a body of work demonstrating your exploration of design production techniques and resources to develop a response to the brief. You will need to document the work you do as evidence for your digital portfolio. It is recommended that you spend approximately 15 hours developing your design work.

Unit 6: Creative Design Project- Sample marking grid

General Marking Guidance All learners must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark the first learner in

exactly the same way as they mark the last. Marking grids should be applied positively. Learners must be rewarded for what they

have shown they can do rather than penalised for omissions. Examiners should mark according to the marking grid not according to their perception

of where the grade boundaries may lie. All marks on the marking grid should be used appropriately. All the marks on the marking grid are designed to be awarded. Examiners should always

award full marks if deserved. Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if the learner’s response is not rewardable according to the marking grid.

Where judgment is required, a marking grid will provide the principles by which marks will be awarded.

When examiners are in doubt regarding the application of the marking grid to a learner’s response, a senior examiner should be consulted.

Specific Marking guidance

The marking grids have been designed to assess learner work holistically. Rows within the grids identify the assessment focus/outcome being targeted. When using a marking grid, the ‘best fit’ approach should be used.

Examiners should first make a holistic judgement on which band most closely matches the learner response and place it within that band. Learners will be placed in the band that best describes their answer.

The mark awarded within the band will be decided based on the quality of the answer in response to the assessment focus/outcome and will be modified according to how securely all bullet points are displayed at that band.

Marks will be awarded towards the top or bottom of that band depending on how they have evidenced each of the descriptor bullet points.
