Design Projects and Coursework flowcharts

Using Design Projects and Coursework flowcharts

Start with the flowchart on the stages of a controlled assessment to see how research, analysis and criteria are brought together. For a different view of coursework, the A-level coursework sections flowchart covers identifying design possibilities, developing a brief and generating ideas.

Other flowcharts focus on particular projects. The Box brings together considerations such as function, appearance, cost and materials. The work breakdown structure flowcharts show making tasks, while the programming flowchart follows inputs and decisions.

Revise with a flowchart

Follow a flowchart through and explain each stage in your own words. Then cover the resource and sketch the stages you remember before checking what you missed. Compare the way two resources organise their work, and consider which approach fits your task.

If you want to practise terms separately, switch to flashcards on the unit page; a quiz can offer another way to check your understanding. Choose a flowchart and trace its stages.
