Learners needing support: Should work with a partner or another adult when writing the key features. When discussing Slide 4, break down the exemplar ideas (you could also provide a printed copy Resource – Design ideas exemplars) into their basic shapes on a whiteboard to demonstrate visually how this could be achieved. Support the evaluation process by taking photographs at various stages. Ensure that they can see the Pupil video easily whilst they are working.
