Course Overview
A design brief approach is used and students are encouraged to focus on topics which they are interested in. The course allows students the scope and the freedom to explore individual solutions to design problems. The course is designed round a modular structure so that students are able to work to their strengths.
To this end, students have the flexibility to design their course around the Assessment Standards below, to target a minimum of 16 credits. In this way the course is focused more on the student’s strengths or interest.
Specific Aims:
- to become independent learners with enquiring minds, and develop research and solve design problems.
- develop the communication skills to enable students to fully explain and describe their reasons

I am experienced with the wood / metal trades as well as Graphics DVC, laser cutting,CAD, Word processing just to name a few. I see myself as a coach or facilitator to get you over the line with marketable skills. Whanau involvement is encouraged. I like to see the funny side of life and know that there is always a solution for any problem. Life is about problem solving and decision making based upon research and making good choices. I believe that the more essential skills you have the greater you are "Pandemic Proof", employable and more content within yourself. Stay positive with me; Damer Farrell
