Assessing Criteria C

NBPS Student Criteria C

Achieved Level 4 because the student:

  • (strand i) medium: describes some appropriate materials, components and manufacturing techniques to make the prototype
  • (strand ii) low: develops a design proposal that includes few details and is not sufficient for a third party to manufacture the prototype
  • (strand iii) low: produces an incomplete plan that contains some production details

The student would have achieved a higher level if they had:

  • (strand i): better justifies materials, components and manufacturing
  • (strand ii): a more detailed design proposal explaining all aspects of the design to be as clear as possible
  • (strand iii): manufacturing plan with pictures and better instructions

The IBO sampler is better than the NBPS example because:

  • The IBO sampler gave many detailed pictures with measurement good for manufacturing
  • The NBPS example needs better step by step guide for manufacturing
  • The NBPS example needs more detailed photos with measurements
