Achievement standard

What Year 3 Technologies students should achieve

Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 3 Technologies standard sentences this code builds towards:

  • Students select design ideas against design criteria.
  • For each of the 2 prescribed technologies contexts they describe the features and uses of technologies and create designed solutions.
  • By the end of Year 4 students create simple digital solutions and use provided design criteria to check if solutions meet user needs.
  • By the end of Year 4 students describe how people design products, services and environments to meet the needs of people, including sustainability.
  • They communicate design ideas using models and drawings including annotations and symbols.
  • They use the core features of common digital tools to plan, create, locate and share content, and to collaborate, following agreed behaviours.
Where this sits

The Knowledge and understanding progression either side of AC9TDI4K03

A class can only meet this descriptor if they were taught the one before it. If yours hasn't, that's where the lesson starts — not here.
