Mentoring Program

July 8, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Many students have joined the Design and Technology Mentoring program offered by way of the website www.designandtechhelp.com.

Lots of students have asked me why have I offered my time so cheaply, other coaching schemes cost hundreds of dollars?

“My aim is to put information out there!” the small amount received covers the cost for software web operating costs.

If you need help even at this late stage please email me on technology1@exemail.com.au

All the best with your project

regards

Colin

Thank you for your comments about the Design and TechnologyeBook

June 28, 2008 · Leave a Comment

My intention when I originally wrote the eBook was to put practical information in the hands of students. Information about how to avoid the mistakes other people have made, how best to display your project for marking.

One teacher from overseas who purchased the eBook put it this way in an email to me ” when it comes to practical information on how to display your MDP there is nothing to assist students. Keep up the find work and look forward to more from you”. I really appreciate this feedback folks.

Design and Technology_ Major Design Project Materials

February 27, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Where can I purchase materials for my Major Design Projects? Each year this question is asked by many students. A good place to start is the Yellow pages Telephone Directory either in hard copy or online formats. I have may it a practice to leave in the workshop a copy of the Yellow Pages. As students wish to source materials they can at least make a note for follow up at some later stage.

Trade publications and magazines are also a valuable way to find sources of materials.
