Explanatory notes
1
This unit standard may be used to award credit for the achievement of learning
outcomes consistent with Technology in the New Zealand Curriculum (Learning
Media Wellington, 1995).
2
Modelling can be used to: create conceptual ideas; contribute to design
development; resolve functional and aesthetic requirements; and examine, evaluate,
and present ideas and solutions.
3
Examples of mock-ups and models are those which: test movement and forces, and
structural and operating features; and examine proportion, spatial relationships,
colour, texture, finish, function, and aesthetics. The model needs to be an
operational model.

This unit standard is
Examples of models are: sketch models; photographic, structural, mechanical, and
expiring
proportional models; test mock-ups;
assembled, detail, and sectioned scale models.
