Generating and designing

This Content Descriptor from Year 9 Technologies provides the specific knowledge and skills students should learn. Use it to plan lessons, create learning sequences, and design assessments that align with the Australian Curriculum v9.

Content Descriptor

generate, modify, communicate and critically evaluate alternative designs

Elaborations

  • • eliminating design ideas by evaluating them against the design criteria and user stories, for example in consultation with stakeholders, reviewing the design ideas, making modifications if necessary, and further developing the design of the preferred solution
  • • using a range of ideation techniques to create multiple design ideas for a solution, for example using graphic organisers, role-play and mind mapping to develop and then record a range of ideas without evaluating them first
  • • combining the output from generative AI models and human capital from recognised experts to meet a specific need; for example, using a range of outputs from an image generator as inspiration for modelling a 3D character in a game

Achievement Standard This Supports

This Content Descriptor contributes to the following Achievement Standard:

Year 9 ASTECTDIY910
Year 9 Technologies Achievement Standard
By the end of Year 10 students develop and modify innovative digital solutions, decompose real-world problems, and critically evaluate alternative solutions against stakeholder elicited user stories. Students acquire, interpret and model complex data with databases and represent documents as content, structure and presentation. They design and validate algorithms and implement them, including in an object-oriented programming language. Students explain how digital systems manage, control and secure access to data; and model cyber security threats and explore a vulnerability. They use advanced features of digital tools to create interactive content, and to plan, collaborate on and manage agile projects. Students apply privacy principles to manage digital footprints.
