|
||
KUT-D1.2 | Needs & how they are met | ||
describe how effective designing and making takes account of how well products work, their overall attractiveness and cost |
|
||
KUT-D1.3 | Needs & how they are met | ||
Suggest ways in which choice is influenced by development of new products and processes, and by advertising |
|
||
KUT-D1.4 | Needs & how they are met | ||
Describe how technological activity can affect the needs of people and the environment |
