    This document outlines a teacher's inquiry focus on improving functional modeling in their classroom. The teacher wants students to see functional models as reflections of their final projects that can be reworked. Strategies include using 3D printing and allowing more time for multiple iterations. Support may come from Richard and Tinkercad. Evidence suggests current functional modeling is rushed. The teacher knows using similar materials and allowing reworks is important. Examples from YouTube and local signwriters could provide inspiration. Success will be measured by improved final projects demonstrating understanding of the technological process. Initial results were positive with more meaningful student outcomes after practicing functional modeling. The next step is targeting year 8 students to understand its purpose.

    G INQUIRY FOCUSSIN

    Focus for Intention What is an outcome in my classroom that I want to work on

    TEACHING INQUIRY

    What new knowledge and/or capability do I need?

    Where can I go? Who can support me in this?

    Using 3D printer to functional model - Examine a range of functional


    modelling options
    Better time management allowing time to produce several reworked
    functional models.

    Richard/ Tinkercad programme

    What are some possible strategies that I could use?

    What research/readings can I collect to support my


    inquiry?

    Improve the quality of Functional Modelling - to produce more


    successful outcomes

    Evidence (How do I know this is an area that I need to


    work on?) Data may be quantitative or qualitative

    Functional modelling at the moment is a rushed/token


    part of the students time in here would like them to see
    that what they functional model is a reflection of what
    they are going to produce and that it can be re-worked
    What do I already know might be useful?
    Using similar materials (that final outcome will be made from) to learn new skills is important
    It is ok to produce several functional models but I need to allow time for this
    Redraw a conceptual design before re-functional modelling

    Images of different types of functional modelling


    Using different materials for functional modelling

    Examples of real world functional modelling


    youtube, try streeters signwriting

    How will I know its made a difference? How will I measure any change?

    Improved final outcome that is fit for purpose, meets key attributes and reflects the stakeholder.
    Better understanding of the technological process.
    G LEARNIN

    TEACHING AND LEARNING


    What did I notice? What evidence have I got? Was my change effective? Why?
    Why not?
    The students created far more meaningful outcomes because of the lead up
    theyd had to their final outcome. They all knew the process to go about making
    their pokerwork look bold and effective because they had made two other,

    What now?
    Keep at it Target the year 8 students next. Ensure they
    have an understanding of Functional modelling and why
    we do it. Try and organise real world examples (streeters
    signwriting)
