How should we teach ‘exploded diagrams’ to children in KS2?, First, show children some examples of exploded diagrams e.g. those provided by a DIY store or used to assemble a model with a construction kit. Discuss the fact that exploded diagrams help when we want to show people the parts or components of the product we are designing, how they fit together and the order of assembly. If safe and possible, ask children to disassemble a relevant, existing product (and make sure they are able to reassemble it afterwards!) Alternatively, if they can’t actually disassemble a product,...

Inspired by Industry PTC Onshape, Inspired by Industry: PTC Onshape This context has been created to allow for a range of opportunities for students to explore user centred design and innovation through the development of a robot that can improve the quality of life. The prototype outcome(s) will need to be realised in a form that can be tested and evaluated. This might simple be a mock-up with exposed parts, wires etc. to test functionality, or it could be that the prototype resembles a more commercial ‘finished’ outcome. Alternatively, CAD might be used to create parts and...
