Crossland Evening/Saturday High – International Baccalaureate Design Technology

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

IB Design Technology focuses on analysis, design development, synthesis and evaluation. The creative tension between theory and practice is what characterizes design technology within the Diploma Programme (DP) sciences subject group. Inquiry and problem-solving are at the heart of the subject. DP design technology requires the use of the DP design cycle as a tool, which provides the methodology used to structure the inquiry and analysis of problems, the development of feasible solutions, and the testing and evaluation of the solution. In DP design technology, a solution can be defined as a model, prototype, product or system that students have developed independently.
