Three switchable routes each dayYear 11 Design · T1 W1–2 · Daily Choices

The routes change how a learner reads, plans or represents an answer, not the evidence and design reasoning expected. Route C can use speech/AAC for annotations, but Days 6, 7, 9 and 10 still need a spatial representation made through labelled physical pieces or an accessible digital canvas. Provide the same case and criteria to everyone. Note access assistance separately from hints about content.

Day Route A · annotate/sketch Route B · movable words/shapes Route C · zoomable digital/speech-assisted Same target to inspect
1 Underline Card A, then write two role→output arrows and need/unknown. Sort four full-word role/output cards, then place need and unknown cards. Zoom Card A; type role/output links or dictate them with exact source and unknown. Two distinct plausible role outputs, one sourced need, one unknown.
2 Three-column evidence ladder with two stated, one inferred and one unsupported line. Place complete statement cards under STATED/INFERENCE/UNSUPPORTED; replace overclaim. Listen to neutral Card A/B reading; record a spoken/digital four-line ladder with source. Same four classifications and a bounded rewrite.
3 Annotate B's existing plan, then write the problem and bracket two constraints. Arrange full-word reader/function/existing-problem/constraint cards into a sentence. Fill a zoomable four-field problem frame; dictate or type the final sentence. Same bounded problem, two real brief constraints and an unknown.
4 Sketch three tray spaces and label two checkable criteria on the sketch. Place three labelled compartment cards on a page; attach two criteria and one measurement question. Use a digital three-box diagram, type/voice-annotate two criteria and unknown dimension. Two paper-checkable criteria, plus one test requiring new data.
5 Mark File G in colours or symbols; answer the four prompts in writing. Place full-word source/constraint/criterion cards, then give the same four responses. Neutral read-aloud of G; type/dictate four responses with no content hints. Same G evidence, problem, criteria and limit.
6 Draw and annotate a D schedule hierarchy on A4. Arrange four full-word group tiles, heading and date box spatially; photograph or describe order. Make a zoomable diagram with moveable labelled rectangles; dictate one annotation. Four groups/date in a discernible hierarchy, linked reason and unknown.
7 Sketch two annotated E maps with different label systems. Build two separate spatial maps with entrance, three room tiles, route arrows and desk tile. Use an accessible digital canvas twice; speak/type what changed between versions. Two meaningful alternatives preserving the stated route and desk.
8 Mark X/Y features on a two-column decision grid and annotate a combined change. Sort full-word option/criterion cards and attach strength/limit/change cards. Use zoomable text table or spoken structured comparison, naming exact visible features. Same two criteria, one sourced strength, limit and change.
9 Draw rough before/after F cards and label revision plus test question. Arrange two labelled A4 card layouts using number/word tiles; move at least one feature. Use two side-by-side digital layouts; speak/type annotation and untested question. Visible changed layout, criterion-linked reason and evidence limit.
10 Draw two H options and an annotated revision beside a written problem. Build two spatial H layouts with full-word tiles, then rearrange one and attach reason. Make two labelled digital diagrams; dictate/type problem, revision and limit. Same H problem, two distinct ideas, criterion-based revision and limit.
