1.0 PREAMBLE

1.1 INTRODUCTION

The Design and Technology syllabus is designed for Forms1-4learners.Itusesscientific,technological,engineering, mathematical (STEM) principles and design processes in solving problems through creativity, innova-tion and invention for cultural and economic well-being of society. This approach encourages the acquisition of competency based technological skills, knowledge and attitudes which are relevant to the requirements of trade and industry, further studies and self-reliance. The syllabus embraces inclusivity in the learning and teaching of Design and Technology.

1.2 RATIONALE

The educational philosophy of the syllabus is concerned with the development of skills and ethical attributes (Unhu/Ubuntu/Vumunhu) which will emphasize the learners’ role in making and shaping the environment whilst adding value to it. This will encourage the learner to employ problem solving skills to produce functional products using appropriate tools and materials for the community, nation and global markets. The syllabus sets out to promote desirable enterprise, recreational and other life skills relevant to the contemporary society. The syllabus will enable learners to explore numerous Design and Technology career opportunities. This will also encourage learners to value the use of multi- materials, Science, Mathematics and other related learning areas in a sustainable manner.

The Design and Technology syllabus enables learners to develop skills in:

• Designthinking• Problemsolving• Leadership• Enterprising• Communication• Creativity• Invention• Innovation• Valuejudgment• Sustainability

1.3 SUMMARY OF CONTENT

This syllabus covers theory and practical activities in

Design and Technology . It focuses on:

• Healthandsafety• Productdesign• Materialscience• Systemsandcontrol• Engineeringscience• Useandmaintenanceoftoolsandequipment• Manufacturing• Designdrawingandrealization• Enterpriseskills

1.4 ASSUMPTIONS

The syllabus assumes that learners have:

• Drawingandmeasuringskills• Knowledgeofmaterialsandequipment• Numeracy,technologicalandscientificliteracy• Knowledgeofsafety,healthandenvironment

(SHE)• InformationCommunicationTechnology(ICT)

skills

1.5 CROSS- CUTTING THEMES

In order to foster competency development for further studies, life and work, the following cross-cutting issues have been taken into consideration:

• Gender• Inclusivity• Environmentalissues• InformationCommunicationTechnology(ICT)

Tools• DisasterRiskManagement• LifeSkills• Collaboration• Sexuality,HIVandAIDS• Respectforlife• Heritagestudies•Chidren’srightsandResponsibilities

2.0 PRESENTATION OF SYLLABUSThe Design and Technology syllabus is a single document covering Forms 1-4. It contains the Preamble, Aims,Objectives,SyllabusTopics,Methodology,Scopeand Sequence and Assessment.

3.0 AIMSThe syllabus helps learners to:

3.1 developconfidence,creativity,competencyandresponsibility in designing products to solve local problems and engage in inventions for the community, nation and the ever changing technological world

3.2 acquire design thinking skills 3.3 foster a range of transferable skills and atti-

tudes 3.4 make aesthetic, economic, moral and technolo-

giaclvaluejudgementinesign3.5 develop enterprising skills through problem

solving3.6 develop an awareness of design in the areas of

social, culture and environment

4.0 OBJECTIVES

Learnersshouldbeableto:

4.1 apply appropriate communication techniques to informandjustifydesignideas

4.2 experiment with design ideas to solve community based problems

4.3 undertake market research for design decision making

4.4 apply ICT knowledge to monitor and control product development

4.5 plan steps in making artefacts 4.6 demonstrate awareness of societal and

technologicalinfluencesindesign 4.7 make aesthetic, economic, moral (ethi-

cal)andtechnologicalvaluejudgment 4.8 identifynatural,indigenousandartificial

materials to make and modify artefacts 4.9 use appropriate materials and tools to

attain quality products 4.10 develop a maintenance culture 4.11 recognise the work of designers, crafts-

men, scientists and technologists in industry and society

4.12 applyscientificandtechnologicalknowl-edge and skills in solving problems in the environment

4.13 exhibit enterprise skills by recognising opportunities and constraints in design

4.14 identify situations in communities for which design solutions are required

4.15 follow the correct patenting procedures

5.0 METHODOLOGY AND TIME ALLOCATION

METHODOLOGY

This syllabus is based on learner-centred and multi-sen-sory approaches in the learning and teaching of Design and Technology. Material Science, Engineering Science, Mathematics and Drawing should be integral part of every excercise. The approaches should also create awareness of the issues of sustainability by involving learners in waste management. The use of ICT (Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing -CAD/CAM) is a requirement.

Suggested Methods

• Discussion• Projectwork• Groupwork• Experimentation• Problemsolving• Demonstration• Educationaltours• Resourcepersons• Observation• Teamteaching• Exhibition

Time Allocation
