Year 9 Design and Visual Communication

The Design & Visual Communication course aims to introduce students to a variety of communication skills. They will have the opportunity to develop problem
solving and presentation skills, along with creativity and visualising objects in 3 dimensional space. Design & Visual Communication will focus on design drawings, with the emphasis on freehand sketching using isometric, perspective, oblique and rendering techniques. Students will gain knowledge of 3D modelling and prototyping. Students will also develop skills in working through a design brief utilising the 3D printers to create a product.
