韩国AV and Technology Showcase
HSC 韩国AV and Technology students recently unveiled their major projects to family and friends, demonstrating their creativity, innovation, and dedication to working towards positive change.
韩国AVed to address real-world problems, each project was accompanied by a comprehensive folio documenting the proposal, project management approach, its development, realisation, and evaluation.
They included innovative “Upcycled Glass Lights”, created by Bronte to tackle the challenge of glass recycling, offering a sustainable solution with the potential of transforming the recycling industry. Bronte's project demonstrates how design and technology can contribute to environmental sustainability and economic viability.
Catie's “SunStride” project addressed the significant issue of Vitamin D deficiency in older people. Her design of an insulated bag for a walking frame encourages outdoor activity and optimises Vitamin D exposure. It also incorporates planned meeting points, encouraging social interaction and combatting loneliness among the elderly.
Nicola's “Happy Hive” project demonstrates a deep concern for the declining population of native Australian bees. Her multifaceted solution addresses habitat loss, lack of awareness, and the importance of bees for ecosystems and agriculture. The hive features a garden with educational patterns, promoting knowledge about native plants and animals.
Cherry's flood-resistant house model was motivated by the devastating impact of floods on houses in New South Wales. Her design aims to minimise flood-related damage, with special consideration for people with disabilities. This project highlights the potential for design and technology to contribute to disaster management and resilience.
Emma's bulletproof backpack for children is borne from her experience living in the United States and is a response to the dangers children face in schools due to gun violence. Her design offers full-body protection and aims to improve the safety of children in schools.
Scarlett's "Calm" travel accessories are inspired by her cousin's challenging travel experiences and her grandmother's insights. Her design caters to sensory and visual requirements, aiming to reduce anxiety and promote inclusive travel experiences for children with special needs.
Sophie's “Medi Blocks” aims to make the daily routine of taking medication more engaging and interactive for sick children. Her design transforms what can be a daunting task into something more positive, demonstrating the potential of design and technology to improve health and wellbeing.
Overall, the 韩国AV and Technology Showcase provided an opportunity for our Year 12 students to demonstrate the skills and knowledge they have gained throughout their studies. We look forward to seeing how they will use this learning to make a positive impact in the future.
