| ASSESSMENT ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION |
| A textile item you have designed is going to be reproduced for the mass market. As part of the process you need to provide the following information for the manufacturer: 1. Product Design Details (25 marks) This section requires the development of detailed manufacturing specifications so that they may be accurately put into commercial production. This should include: – a description of the item (10 marks) – production drawings including garments and pattern pieces (10 marks) – technical production plans with samples included (5 marks) 2. Experimental Procedures (15 marks) * There are three main areas you will need to consider to achieve the desired end result of your textile item; manufacturing techniques, material selection and equipment. In order to determine the best processes, you will need to conduct investigation and experimentation into each of these areas. Outline ONE manufacturing technique, ONE material selection and ONE piece of equipment used in your design. Justify the use of this material, equipment and manufacturing technique on the basis of comprehensive investigations, use samples to support your evaluation. * Remember: these are experiments, therefore you need to compare to other suitable fabrics, techniques and construction methods 3. Analysis of Fabric, Yarn and Fibre Properties (10 marks) Describe the main fabric of your chosen textile item and critically evaluate the properties and performance of the fabric, yarn and fibres used in relation to the end use. This can be done in table format. Your report needs to use a variety of communication methods e.g. (written, graphical, samples, tables and diagrams) and should not exceed 12 x A4 (6 x A3 pages). |
| ASSESSMENT ACTIVITY RUBRIC |
| You will be assessed on your ability to: ● Produce clear and accurate manufacturing specifications for commercial production ● Determine the best use of manufacturing techniques, material selection and equipment through extensive investigation. ● Analyse and critically evaluate properties and performance of fibre, yarn and fabric through justification of end use. |
