Bushfire-Resistant Housing - Evaluation Phase

Students negotiate criteria for assessing the effectiveness of the designed solutions for bushfire-resistant housing. They take ownership of their efforts of trying to effect practical, real-world change for people, communities and places impacted by bushfires.

This set of resources challenges teachers and educators to expand their practice by utilising the design process methodology – an engaging, self-directed learning structure that guides students towards becoming experts so that they can ultimately design solutions that have a positive impact on people and communities.

This lesson guides both educators and students through the process of negotiating success criteria before helping students to effectively present their work via a communication piece and reflect critically on feedback in order to identify areas of improvement.
