VCE Product Design and Technology external assessment report  \nGeneral comments  \nThe 2022 VCE Product Design and Technology exam was based on the VCE Product Design and Technology Study Design 2018–2023.  \nIn Section B, approximately 55 per cent of students chose to design the single bike rack launch station and 45 per cent chose to do the cycling outer garment.  \nAreas of strength included:  \n􀁸 referring to the information given in the examination  \n􀁸 describing the profile of an end user  \n􀁸 ergonomic considerations  \n􀁸 risks in using a product  \n􀁸 comparison of attributes of the Sherpa folding cart and the Sherpa Power Barrow  \n􀁸 use of media for drawings  \n􀁸 most students attempting to answer all questions.  \nAreas for improvement included:  \n􀁸 understanding of command terms used in questions  \n􀁸 unnecessarily rewriting questions , which uses up space and time  \n􀁸 confusing research and development ( R&D) with market research  \n􀁸 inadequate knowledge of  \n􀀐 low volume manufacturing  \n􀀐 parameters of user-centred design  \n􀀐 Extended Producer Responsibility  \n􀀐 the difference between a trial model and a high-quality prototype  \n􀁸 naming a specific material and a production process  \n􀁸 exploded drawings of details  \n􀁸 applying responses in Section B to the product chosen from the design scenario  \n􀁸 illegible handwriting.  \nWhen preparing for the examination students should focus on:  \n􀁸 the product design factors and their parameters  \n􀁸 terminology around design in industry  \n􀁸 drawing creatively using various media in response to past examination scenarios  \n􀁸 learning the names of specific materials , their characteristics and properties , several suitable production processes and drawing of details such as joins and/or fasteners.  \n2022 VCE Product Design and Technology external assessment report  \nSpecific information  \nNote: Student responses reproduced in this report have not been corrected for grammar, spelling or factual information.  \nThis report provides sample answers or an indication of what answers may have included. Unless otherwise stated , these are not intended to be exemplary or complete responses.  \nThe statistics in this report may be subject to rounding resulting in a total more or less than 100 per cent.  \nSection A  \nQuestion 1  \n\n| Mark | 0 | 1 | Average |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| % | 5 | 95 | 1.0 |\n\nMost students correctly identified pineapple leaves. Other acceptable responses were organic cotton , bamboo or corn. Some students incorrectly named a part of the sneaker such as bamboo lining or cotton laces , which are not raw materials.  \nQuestion 2a.  \n\n| Mark | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | Average |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| % | 5 | 14 | 34 | 47 | 2.3 |\n\nResponses needed to include more details other than the waste pineapple leaves being used. They needed to refer to the sneaker’s end-of-life and how consumers could return them for disassembly, where components of the upper part could be composted, thus reducing landfill.  \nMany students wrongly assumed that the MoEa sneakers were fully compostable, when only the upper components were. Many also assumed that any plant-based leather, such as Piñatex® is compostable or biodegradable and won’t end up in landfill. This is not the case, especially when it is processed into a plastic polymer, regardless of whether it is made from renewable resources. Others assumed the sole, which was made from recycled material , could be recycled again but this was not stated in the article.  \nThe following is an example of a high-scoring response.  \nThey have allowed consumers to send their products back to MoEa at the end ofits life so that it can be disassembled and composted appropriately, reducing waste in the environment and also taking producer responsibility for their products.  \n© VCAA Page 2  \n2022 VCE Product Design and Technology external assessment report  \nQuestion 2 b.  \n\n| Mark | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | Average |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n","cbCaiqkrXZdkbeEJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqkrXZdkbeEJ","pdf",2664237,27,"English","# General comments\n# Specific information\n## Section A\n### Question 1\n### Question 2a\n### Question 2b\n### Question 3","[{\"question\":\"What were students’ main areas of strength in the 2022 exam?\",\"answer\":\"Strengths included referring to exam information, describing an end-user profile, considering ergonomics and product risks, comparing attributes of two specified products, using media for drawings, and attempting to answer all questions.\"},{\"question\":\"What were common areas for improvement noted by the report?\",\"answer\":\"Improvements included understanding command terms, avoiding unnecessary rewriting, correctly distinguishing R\\u0026D from market research, learning key design parameters and concepts (including EPR and prototypes), naming specific materials and processes accurately, and improving drawing clarity and handwriting.\"},{\"question\":\"How did the report evaluate responses in Section A?\",\"answer\":\"Section A responses are assessed by marks and averages per question, with explanations of what required details were missing or incorrect, plus examples of higher-scoring responses that address lifecycle impacts and end-of-life responsibilities.\"}]","2022 VCE Product Design and Technology External Assessment Report | PDF",1789906566,68]
