WORKSHOP DAY INFORMATION WELCOME

DATTA VIC welcomes you to our Annual Hands On Workshop Day and to the Box Hill Institute. This year’s progam

offers you a range of practical hands on workshops which will further support your teaching practice of Product

Design and Technology and Systems Engineering.

This year we will host our live student competition “So You Think You Can Design” for students specialising in Textiles

for the first time. Students from different schools will compete with each other in various design related tasks from

creating mood boards, design illustrations and mock ups of final designs. Challenges will be completed throughout

Friday, so make sure you head over and see what the students are creating! This event is intended to highlight new

techniques and possibilities within Product Design and Technology as well as provide some entertainment and a

healthy dose of inspiration!

Model Solar VehiclesThe aim of this workshop is to enable teachers to assist their students to construct or improve model solar powered boats or cars that could then be used at school and/or entered into the state competition at Scienceworks in term 4. The model solar boats are aimed at primary and junior secondary students (over two hundred teams entered last year). Construction involves the use of recycled materials and the boats are quite simple and cheap to construct. Students learn about friction, propeller choice, aerodynamics, simple circuits, solar electricity, etc. The Model solar cars require a higher level of skill, take more time, are more costly and are mainly constructed by secondary students. Students learn about friction, gearing, aerodynamics, electronic circuitsand solar electricity.

Wayne Young has been a member of both the Victorian and Australian International Model Solar Vehicle Committees for over a decade and he has conducted hands on workshops with students all over the state. He currently teaches Technology and Science at Billanook College in Melbourne.

Modelling 3D Jewellery with Rhino & RhinoGoldRhino (Rhinoceros 3D) is powerful NURBS based tool for general modelling and CAD manufacturing or 3D printing in particular. RhinoGold is an application that utilises Rhino completely while adding its own interface and extraordinary tools for making jewellery. RhinoGold is essentially a jeweller’s tool to make 3D jewellery efficiently.

In this hands-on session you will experience both Rhino and RhinoGold to make some simple items and prepare them for 3D printing.

The session will have initial instruction but break into self-paced learning using training movies specially prepared for this session. You will be able to confidently and comfortably work at your own pace with assistance as necessary. This technique has proven very successful at Box Hill and our students enjoy this method of learning.

You may take all learning material with you for further practice or revision.

Areas covered:• Introduction to the interface tools and features.• Size and create a simple ring.• Select and Apply gemstones.• Create prongs.• Use a gem drilling tool.• Add a maker’s mark to the shank.• Apply precious metals to a model.• Check and analyse a model.• Export for 3D printing.• Plus, more from optional extra movies.

Please bring:• Headphones or earplugs.• USB stick or drive.• Note taking material and pen.

Ken McAlpine has taught Design Technology for 20 years in both government and independent schools in Australia and the United Kingdom.

He has specialised in working with wood, metal and acrylic. In 2002 Ken won a National Woodwork Design Award when he recycled a block of left over Blackwood, previously used as a door stop, to create an electric violin. The experience taught him the importance of acquiring a good practical understanding of hand tools which were utilised for over 90% of the violin's construction. Ken believes a good understanding of the basic rudiments of hand tools is an essential prerequisite if a student is to develop the skills required to create projects to a high standard.

Creating Video Clips To Maximise Production OutcomesThis session aims to share my experience with the development of short instructional video clips that have been designed to demonstrate and provide

written and verbal instruction for practical tasks. I have been trialling the clips with students in years 8 and 9 Design & Technology (Textiles) classes, and shared them successfully with senior students. The clips are suited to a learning environment with 1:1 laptops, or where there is access to computers in the classroom. The specific content of the clips can be entirelytailored to your curriculum needs and created with your own voice. Students are able to come to class well prepared, with your personal support at the touch of their track pad. The clips can be uploaded onto Vimeo and shared and viewed via Edmodo. I would like to demonstrate the implicity of recording with an iPhone or similar device and the effective use of iMovie for editing and finishing.
