  1. Planning Unit Delivery Engineering Diploma Level 2 Unit 2 Investigating Engineering Design

  2. L2 U2 Investigating Engineering Design • Approach given here is formed by following the awarding bodies: • Learning outcomes • Assessment tasks Learning outcomes: • Know about construction and function of an engineered product or system (LO.1) • Design specification – prepare from a given brief (LO.2) • Design proposals – prepare from a given specification (LO.3) • Prepare a final design solution (LO.4) Next >

  3. PowerPointpresentations Research tasks Design tasks Program control tasks on real and simulated track Scientific investigations Engineering theme: • LJ Research and Design module is based around the design of a new transportation system in the form of a maglev mass transit system • The module activities are used for acquiring knowledge and skills during unit delivery Next >

  4. Students should consider: • Construction – How is it made? What is it made of? • Function – What does the product do? What is it used for? • How does the product work? • Evaluate the performance of the product. Is it fit for its purpose? • Is the product ergonomic, efficient and reliable? Assessment Task 1 – Construction and function of an engineered product or system • For an engineered product or system investigated, write a short, simple report The scheme of work suggests looking at how a product is put together, e.g. a mobile phone The scheme of work also refers to the Basic Electricity module that shows the construction of a torch and a desk fan The support documents include an assembly drawing of the maglev propulsion unit The maglev control software contains factors to consider for the vehicle design Next >

  5. Students specification should consider: • Dimensional constraints • Functional requirements • Required operating performance parameters • Economic and manufacturing considerations Assessment Task 2 – Design Specification • From a given design brief, identify physical constraints, performance requirements and reliability indicators to produce a design specification The brief provided is a requirement to transport passengers between an airport terminal and new departure gates 2.5km away Example support documents are provided to show how, after some research and brain-storming, a specification is produced to meet the requirements of the design brief Next >

  6. Assessment Task 3 – Design Solution • From a given design specification, produce 3 initial design proposals The specification provided is for the passenger transport system between the airport terminal and the new departure gates • Choose a final proposal and explain your selection, considering the requirements of the specification • Produce a final design report and present it Students are expected to include sketches and diagrams. If appropriate, they can also include a demonstration using the model maglev system or simulation Next >

  7. Skills and knowledge acquired from the Research and Design module: • Design brief and specification • Research • Consideration of design criteria • Choosing a design solution • Testing and evaluating • Prototyping • Economic considerations A full list of module activities is provided Next >

  8. Delivery and assessment approach: • An example of a scheme of work is provided that enables students to acquire the knowledge and skills to complete the assessed tasks • It refers to: • Assignments in LJ modules • Student textbook • Internet sites • Ideas for visits • LJ support documents • Assessment briefs and tasks are provided Next >

  9. Delivery and assessment approach: • The unit requires students to be able to apply skills in report writing and presenting • The scheme of work refers to relevant sections of the FS560 Functional and Key Skills module • It is an engineering contextualised functional skills package for support in the areas Maths, English and IT • Students will benefit from an understanding of business activities that drive the development process • The scheme of work refers to relevant sections of the ST710 Skills for Enterprise module End >
