Design technology is a great subject to present visually. Here are a few ideas for your ppt slides..

Drop some cool moodboard pics or inspo pics that helped you brainstorm. Show off your vibe and what’s inspired your design.

A slide showing what you’re using and why (“I picked this material ‘cause it’s eco-friendly and looks 🔥”)

Show the glow-up of your design journey from sketches to final idea. Drop some sketch pics or digital models and talk about how it changed over time.


Hope this helps!

add some more writing lol
is the whole thing looking bare? or is it specific sections?
(NB these are the sections for AQA sorry if u do a diff board)
Section A make sure to thoroughly research the subject, do different products and ACCESSFM all of them, comparisons etc. you could always add an extra product analysis if this bit is looking empty. make sure u have stats from consumer research!
Sections B and F make sure you justify everything this is crucial to get the marks. even if something goes wrong, talk about it. explain what your priorities are/were. link sections B and F lots to show if ur product is accurate to the specification
Sections C and D make sure your drawings dominate the page. the point of these pages is the drawings not the writing! do smaller, lighter pencil ones behind the writing to make it really pop. don't design fixate and use different ideas! add some more drawings to these ones - don't have to be top notch
Section E talk about exactly what you did even if/when it goes wrong. explain why did you use this process? this material? this finish? this machine/tool? justify it! and add loads of pics of u making it (if u have them)
