AS - AQA Product Design (3D-Design)
Watch
Announcements
Hello,
For the benefit of my revision and perhaps to anyone else's, I have made a small but expanding blog for AS AQA Product Design. I thought posting a link for it here would be a good way to put the blog out there as there seems to be little resources for AQA Product Design on the internet.
pdaqa.wordpress.com
Any thoughts and feelings in terms to the content of the blog are encouraged so please feel free to get in touch: improving the blog is always important: the more minds the better.
Cheers and I hope to hear some thoughts!

Sorry you've not had any responses about this. 
Why not try posting in a specific subject forum- you might have more luck there.
Here's a link to our subject forum which should help get you more responses.

OMG I have my AS exams just weeks after Easter and was planning to do some revision in the holiday. This will most certainly help me so much, thank you !
Maybe just mention that despite there being very little presence in the past on smart materials, this is expected to increase due to the spec constantly putting more and more emphasis on these.
Thanks again,
Lee - Year 12

For such a small specification, there isn't half a lot of content to include I've found, which in my experience teachers don't tend to cover in enough detail

I'd say that most schools tend to focus on CW up until the very end and don't do much theory, if yours does equal split like mine that's great but if not I'd consider learning the content beside it. It's not hard per say for either units, it's just content heavy and very time consuming, such a good course though, I love it! It takes the stress out of your other courses for sure. Hope this helps ☺️
