Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1)

Students recognise and understand the structures and materials of coats superficially and can apply this in design incompletely.

They understand the connection between quality perception and design choices and the product price. Students make design decisions that are largely justified and commercially viable. The products are visually and technically clearly designed and presented.
