          Critique needs or opportunities to develop design briefs and investigate and select an increasingly sophisticated range of materials, systems, components, tools and equipment to develop design ideas
      
          Elaborations
          
                  - 
                      critiquing the design of new products to identify how well design ideas respond to sustainability issues
                  
- 
                      critiquing a range of design and technologies ideas, for example assessing those that draw on the intellectual property of others, exploring how well the ideas respond to international and Australian standards
                  
- 
                      considering the needs of community groups to identify rich design tasks
                  
- 
                      examining relationships of properties for complementary materials for products, for example examining compressive and tensile strengths of materials
                  
- 
                      identifying appropriate tools, equipment, techniques and safety procedures for each process and evaluating production processes for accuracy, quality, safety and efficiency
