NSW Industrial Technology Years 9-10 (Stage 5, Year 10) - major project development, industry and workplace practice, evaluation and presentation - expressed in Dux teaching language.
Dux tracks each dot point separately, so “I did Industrial Technology Year 10” becomes a list of specific things you can already do and specific things you have never been asked. Open a module for all of its dot points, written out.
A sustained project carried from brief to resolved product with a folio that shows the thinking.
How the manufacturing and construction industries actually work, and how to work safely in them.
Defending a product with evidence, and presenting it to an audience that will judge it.
A Industrial Technology Year 10 paper is not one question type repeated. Each command word asks for a different shape of answer, and each is worth a different number of marks.
| Command word | Question type | Marks |
|---|---|---|
| analyse | Short answer | 3–5 |
| describe | Short answer | 2–3 |
| evaluate | Extended response | 4–6 |
| explain | Short answer | 3–4 |
| identify | Multiple choice | 1 |
| select | Multiple choice | 1 |
Year 10 Assessment Task Shape — 50 marks, 75 minutes. Practice papers in Dux are assembled to this shape rather than invented, so the timing is training too.
Diagnostic first, then questions written in the shape this course uses. Written answers come back marked against the bands, not just scored.
