Course Description

The intention of this course is for students to be engaged in an authentic technological experience in the context of making soft material products for an identified market and producing these for sale.

Students will be working innovatively towards an outcome, and developing a production plan.

The enterprise element to this course shows students the value of their time and creates an awareness of decisions made while developing their product.

It suits students who work well in a team and can develop their ideas in response to feedback.
