What are the 4 Assessment Objectives (AOs) in the AQA 3D Design Portfolio?
Research and Analysis
Design and Development
Making and Evaluating
Presentation and Communication
What should you understand about material life cycles?
The stages materials go through from creation to disposal
The chemical composition of materials
The cost of materials
The environmental impact of materials
Identify and acknowledge every single source that you use.
True
False
What are the strengths and weaknesses of different designs in terms of function?
Different designs have unique strengths and weaknesses based on their function.
All designs have the same strengths and weaknesses.
Designs do not have any weaknesses.
The function of a design does not affect its strengths and weaknesses.
How aesthetically pleasing are the designs?
Very pleasing
Somewhat pleasing
Neutral
Not pleasing
How sustainable are the materials?
Very sustainable
Moderately sustainable
Not sustainable
Sustainability unknown
Compare designer approaches and consider cultural, societal, and environmental influences.
True
False
The purpose of creating sketched designs is to:
visualize ideas
improve handwriting
practice drawing
decorate notebooks
Develop initial ideas into concrete proposals. True or False?
True
False
The role of drawing in design is:
to create visual representations and communicate ideas
to confuse the design process
to eliminate the need for digital tools
to solely focus on aesthetics
The importance of quality of making in design is:
It ensures durability and functionality.
It increases the cost significantly.
It is not important in modern design.
It only affects the aesthetic value.
The purpose of engaging deeply with research sources in 3D design is to:
enhance creativity and innovation
improve technical skills
understand design trends
all of the above
Experimentation is considered key in 3D design because:
it allows for creative exploration and innovation.
it is a mandatory requirement in all design courses.
it guarantees the success of every design project.
it is the only way to learn 3D design.
How can drawing be made integral to the 3D design process?
By using drawing as a preliminary step in 3D modeling
By ignoring drawing in favor of digital tools
By using drawing only for final presentations
By separating drawing from the 3D design process
The importance of thoughtful annotation in 3D design is:
To enhance visual clarity and communication
To increase file size unnecessarily
To make the design process more complex
To reduce the need for collaboration
Keeping assessment objectives in mind during a 3D design project is important because:
it helps in aligning the project with the desired outcomes.
it makes the project more visually appealing.
it reduces the cost of the project.
it speeds up the design process.
Exploring different areas in 3D design involves:
Creating 3D models
Understanding lighting and textures
Learning animation techniques
All of the above
How should function and aesthetics be considered in 3D design?
Function should be prioritized over aesthetics.
Aesthetics should be prioritized over function.
Both function and aesthetics should be balanced.
Neither function nor aesthetics are important.
Prioritizing safety is important when working with tools and materials in 3D design because:
it ensures efficiency and productivity.
it prevents accidents and injuries.
it enhances creativity and innovation.
it reduces the cost of materials.
3D design can be defined as:
A process of creating three-dimensional models or visuals using specialized software.
A method of drawing two-dimensional sketches on paper.
A technique for painting on flat surfaces.
A way to write code for web development.
What are the 10 areas of study within the AQA specification?
Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, English, History, Geography, Art, Music, Physical Education
Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, English, History, Geography, Art, Music, Computer Science
Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, English, History, Geography, Art, Music, Business Studies
Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, English, History, Geography, Art, Music, Economics
The four assessment objectives are crucial in evaluating performance. Which of the following is NOT one of the four assessment objectives?
Understanding and application
Analysis and evaluation
Creativity and innovation
Knowledge and comprehension
How does the externally set assignment differ from the portfolio?
The externally set assignment is evaluated by external examiners, while the portfolio is assessed internally.
The portfolio is a collection of work over time, whereas the externally set assignment is a one-time task.
The externally set assignment is more theoretical, while the portfolio is practical.
The portfolio is optional, but the externally set assignment is mandatory.
What are your top three tips for success in 3D design GCSE?
Practice regularly and seek feedback
Focus on theory only
Ignore feedback and work alone
Only use digital tools
Where can you find support from AQA?
On their official website
Through their customer service hotline
Via their social media channels
All of the above
