Course Description
3D Design GCSE involves developing practical skills and a learning about a wide variety of materials and manufacturing techniques. The course develops your ability to think like a designer: researching ideas, sketching concepts, building models, solving structural problems and refining your work into a final piece. You’ll experiment with materials like card, foam board, wood and mixed media, while also learning digital skills such as CAD, laser cutting and Adobe design software. Other areas of study could include ceramics, jewellery design and sculpture.
You will develop your skills and ideas in a hardback sketchbook with numerous opportunities to print work on larger scales and combine different art making practices.
