1.0 PREAMBLE1.1 Introduction
This Building Technology and Design syllabus is de-signed for Forms 1 - 4 learners. Both theory and practice will be at the center of implementing this syllabus. The syllabus ensures access to learning and teaching Building Technology and Design regardless of gender and learners’ diverse needs.
The syllabus promotes learners’ development of psycho-motor skills and techniques and ensures that learners develop socially, physically, emotionally and cognitively. Itservesasafirmfoundationforself-reliance,entryintothe construction industry, further studies and training in Building Technology and Design.
1.2 Rationale
The philosophy of the Zimbabwean Constitution provides for decent housing and shelter for all which makes it necessary for the learning and teaching of Building Technology and Design in schools. This course encourages learners to employ problem solving skillswhichpromotetheapplicationofscientificandtechnological knowledge. The learning areas will enable learners to appreciate the dignity of labour, integrity, unhu/Ubuntu and patriotism. It is therefore imperative that the learners are afforded an opportunity to study this learning area as they pursue their education and prepare for future careers and entrepreneurial activities.
1.3 Summary of Content (Knowledge, Skills and Attitudes)
This syllabus will cover theory and practical activities in areas such as design and drawing, material science, use and care of building tools and equipment, construction processes, estimations, application of by-laws, health and safety issues. Learners will be engaged in community development projects, infrastructure mainte-nance and attachment to construction industry.
1.4 Methodology and Time Allocation
Suggested Methods
The syllabus is based upon interactive, learner centred, multi -sensory and hands on approaches. Principles of individualization,concretenesstotalityandwholenessand simulation must be applied to enhance the suggest-ed teaching methods. These approaches and principles
encourage curiosity and promote practical orientated learning whereby learners apply their experiences, knowledge, skills and attitudes independently. Linkage between theory and practice is strongly recommended in the learning and teaching of Building Technology and Design. The following are suggested methods:
1.4.1 Case study1.4.2 Discussions1.4.3 Project based learning1.4.4 Educational tours 1.4.5 E-learning1.4.6 Experimentation1.4.7 Individualisation1.4.8 Problem solving1.4.9 Discovery method1.4.10 Demonstrations1.4.11 Survey1.4.12 Visual tactile1.4.13 Gallery walk1.4.14 Resource person(s)1.4.15Schoolontheshopfloor1.4.16 Group work
Time Allocation
Eight periods of 35 - 40 minutes per week should be allocated for adequate mastery of competencies.
1.5 Assumptions
The syllabus assumes that learners have:
• drawingandmeasuringskills• knowledgeofsomebuildingtoolsandmaterials• knowledgeofdifferentbuildingdesigns• informationcommunicationtechnology• numeracyandscientificskills• engagedincooperativeworkandself-assessment

8.0 ASSESSMENT Forms 1 - 4 Building Technology and Design candidates will be assessed through continuous and summative meth-ods. The syllabus’ scheme of assessment is grounded in the principle of inclusivity. Arrangements, accommodation andmodificationmustbevisibleinbothcontinuousandsummativeassessmentstoenablecandidateswithspecialneeds to access assessments and receive accurate performance measurement of their abilities.
(a) ASSESSMENT OBJECTIVES
By the end of the course learners will be expected to:
8.1 state functions of different operatives, tradesperson and professionals in the building industry8.2 describe health and safety measures in the building industry8.3 identify tools, equipment and materials used in Building Technology and Design8.4 demonstrate the correct use of any building tool and material8.5 conduct experiments to determine the strengths, durability and quality of building materials8.6 describe the safety and environmental conservation practices on any building site8.7 solve bonding problems in Stretcher, English and English garden wall bonds up to 230mm wall thickness8.8 design and construct a structure from a given brief8.9 demonstrate ICT skills in building drawing and design8.10 calculate quantities of building materials and labour costs for any given construction work8.11 definetermsusedinBuildingTechnologyandDesign8.12 outline the importance of Building Design and Technology8.13 interpret and evaluate building designs8.14 apply acquired skills to solve real life situations in building8.15 demonstrate the use of indigenous technologies and materials in the design and construction of structures8.16 demonstrate knowledge of building regulations (by- laws) in design and construction
