A ‘hands-on’ dive into the Engineering Process – VCE Engineering
This professional learning opportunity hopes to provide insight into the learning involved in the production of a small autonomous vehicle.
We will step through the processes that VCE Systems Engineering students are required to follow to adequately document the Engineering Process for Area of Study & Outcome 1 for Unit 1 to 4.
The session will focus on each stage of the project and Engineering Process, including:
- Getting started
- Design methods and tools (CAD)
- Choice of components and materials (microcontrollers, PCBs, prototyping)
- Best practices for documentation
- Testing methods
- Evaluation and assessment
