The journey from a good idea to a product is a long one....in fact, some might say the good idea is the easiest part! In this module learners work to design and sell a BBQ, exploring the science behind their product along the way. Pulling in key ideas of heat transfer, the class will explore the most suitable materials, shape and measurements for the perfect BBQ. They will also become more familiar with using G-suites to create an advert which utilises fact and opinion, as well programme a simple budget using spreadsheet formulas. This is the perfect module for any budding business people or learners interested in function and design.

Learners will understand that identifying bias can help us differentiate between fact and opinion; the properties of a material will determine how useful it is for particular purposes; and design is a process which involves constant change and reflection.
Learners will be able to confidently use G-suite to communicate effectively; and apply an understanding of materials as conductors and insulators in order to design a BBQ.
Learners become more resilient and able to persevere through challenging tasks.
