Design Technology HL (12)
Students follow a model of learning that includes knowledge, skills and design principles in problem solving contexts. In addition to topics covered in Grade 11, students will learn how to evaluate products and study Food Science and Technology. They will apply their knowledge when undertaking a major internal assessment in the form of a Design Project. This will be based upon the topics studied throughout the course. Internal assessment is through the IB Design Cycle criteria of Planning, Research, and Development. Students sit a formal examination at the end of each semester and external examinations at course completion. Higher Level students have extension tasks.
