  The process of developing ideas through modelling is a key theme in the 1995 Design and Technology curriculum. This book shows how ideas evolve towards the finished product when the designer employs 2D and 3D modelling. It explains how modelling is used as a tool by professional designers and how many of these techniques and understandings can be transferred to the school / college environment. Types of modelling illustrated include: rough sketching; rapid visualization; scale modelling; prototypes; facsimilies and computer simulation. Elements of the process covered include: tools, materials and equipment; initial ideas and development and presentation.
