Australian Curriculum: Design and Technologies (Version 8.3, ACARA, May 2017) Band 7 and 8 Design and Technologies Achievement standard Content descriptions By the end of Year 8 students explain Knowledge and understanding factors that influence the design of Technologies and Investigate the ways in which products, services and environments evolve locally, regionally products, services and environments to society and globally and how competing factors including social, ethical and sustainability meet present and future They explain considerations are prioritised in the development of technologies and designed solutions the contribution of design and technology for preferred futures (ACTDEK029) innovations and enterprise to society. Food Analyse how characteristics and properties of food determine preparation techniques Students explain how the features of and presentation when designing solutions for healthy eating (ACTDEK033) specialisations technologies impact on designed solutions and influence design decisions for each of Materials and Analyse ways to produce designed solutions through selecting and combining characteristics and properties of materials, systems, components, tools and equipment the prescribed technologies contexts. technologies (ACTDEK034) specialisations Students create designed solutions for each of the prescribed technologies Creating designed Processes and production skills contexts based on an evaluation of needs solutions by: or opportunities.
