Okay so I'm doing CIE Design and Technology and the way our slides are graded are based on multiple things: identifying a problem, exploring potential solutions, developing a proposed solution, planning for production, product realisation and finally evaluation and testing.

One of the main thing's we've been focusing on for our coursework slides have been to include as many images as possible for evidence. I think that's also because we're doing the IGCSE one as international students, so the examiners won't be physically checking our work unless we're obviously being given predicted grades that don't match with our work :dontknow:

Additionally, we've also been including a lot of research into our coursework, both primary and secondary research. I also think the evaluation and testing bit that you do at the end is also really important. Oh! And obviously, your product that you make at the end must meet your client/primary user's needs. 😅

Honestly, yeah, that's pretty much everything... I don't really know what else I could help you on for this 😬
