There are two tasks for this assessment:
1. You will produce and submit a complete set of 11 working Oxford pattern pieces. These pieces will be used to construct your Oxford shoe later in the semester. You will be working individually for this assessment and receive feedback throughout the making of the patterns.
Each of the pattern pieces are expected to be cut cleanly to specification and labelled per industry standard and produced in accordance with pattern making methods from the book “Pattern Cutting- Step by Step” by Frank Jones.
Submission of patterns are to be placed in envelope and clearly labelled as directed.
2. You will be observed on your planning and organising skills throughout the production of these pattern pieces for example. Which can include observations on material preparation, equipment use and maintenance, WHS conditions.
This will be an open book assessment however you may ask for assistance in clarifying aspects of the process from the Teacher.
