Year 9 options help for GCSE Graphic Products

Lots of parents and students are now thinking about options for GCSE, or certainly for year 10 and year 11. Graphic Products is an interesting course which allows students to focus on the graphic elements of technology. A visit to the AQA website via my website, ( see the links on www.beverleygrammarschool.co.uk - scroll down to Mr.Geekie's help page ) will give you details of the syllabus and also what is involved in taking the course. If you open the syllabus pdf file you can scroll down to the suggested project ideas ( taken in year 11 ). We focus mainly ( though not exclusively, on exhibition stand design - to exhibit a car. The brief can be varied to suit an individual strength. See my youtube videos for more help - here can be seen outcomes from last years examination coursework. Please, please appreciate that the course requires a good ability for drawing BOTH freehand and on a computer. It also requires dedication, hard work and discipline to achieve good results. If you have any questions please contact me via email, letter, this blog etc. Best wishes - Mr.Geekie
