Design Process
The main subject area covers the development of one or more products with a point of departure in one's own ideas or designing a product or products together with pupils or operators from the local community. The design process includes the idea generation phase of working with and testing and evaluating materials and techniques, as well as evaluating the different aesthetic and functional solutions available. The main subject area also includes assessing recycling and re-use of materials where this is a natural part of the process.
Product
The main subject area covers practical creative work during which the pupils develop knowledge about materials and handicraft techniques. Knowledge about the consequences that the use and misuse of resources can have on the environment and for society, is a part of the main subject area. Cooperation with the local community may also be included in the subject.
