🎬 C4 Design Ideas and Evaluation Explained
Two short videos walking through how C4 works — what you produce for your design pack, how the evaluation matrix supports the choice of which design proceeds, and what scores well at each VCAA band.
Watch in order. Each video pairs with one assessment package.
1. Design Ideas — C4-1
VCAA Criterion 4, Indicator 1 · Design defence presentation with your printed design pack
â–¶ Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Pfo-ksEHb64
What you'll learn: how to use the four ideation tools (mood boards, brainstorming, mind maps, sketches) plus annotations to produce a defensible design pack, what the design defence presentation looks like on assessment day, and the trade-off language ("considered X / chose Y / because Z") that separates 7–8 from 9–10.
2. Evaluation Criteria — C4-2
VCAA Criterion 4, Indicator 2 · Written evaluation test with your printed evaluation outline and design pack
â–¶ Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/aQaV2Gb_CLE
What you'll learn: how to write measurable evaluation criteria linked to your SRS, the three VCAA-prescribed efficiency measures and eleven effectiveness measures, how to apply criteria in a matrix, and the explain-vs-justify distinction (and why "naming the rival" is the 9–10 differentiator).
