This unit is designed to develop the skills needed to carry out a project systematically. The project is designing a front-of-house ticketing system for a theatre.
Pupils learn to plan the stages of a project, and use a flow chart to record their decisions. They use a design specification as the basis for their work and criteria to evaluate their success. They develop many skills, in particular time management and problem solving. At the end of the unit they produce a written report summarising their project and its success.
The project is limited to three tasks; this allows teachers to ensure their class learns project methods as a whole group. Differentiation is achieved through the work carried out by individual pupils for each of the tasks set within the framework of this unit.
This unit is expected to take approximately 16 hours.
