Unit Handbook and Assignment
This also contains all the main task you have to complete

Aims

1. Promote your own professional development through the use of a website build
2. Develop an awareness of CAD and Key software development, considering the benefits and challenges of CAD

​Objectives
Participate in a group peer critique and discuss the following:          

• Are the websites we are looking at fit for purpose (do they transmit the message intention) 20 mins 
• Produce and promote awareness using ‘Market place’ technique to deliver a presentation discussing the following: 

• Small groups to research the application of CAD and Software
• What are the benefits and challenges of CAD 
• Compile a short presentation of your findings using power point 
• Present Findings to the rest of the group via a power point presentation 

All groups are to research and present
