Very Open Starting Points

These starting points are available as visual brainstorms which the teacher can use with the class to explore the context and identify many different sorts of electronic product that could be designed and made in response. These open starting points provide the opportunity to give pupils a voice as to what sort of product they want to design and make.

The exact nature of the products designed and made will depend on the age and previous experience of the pupils and the resouces available in the school but giving the pupils a voice will increase their ownership of the endeavour and their motivation.
