What do 14 - 18 year olds want to make?
I have been set the task of designing a Craft and Design (Standard Grade SQA) mini-project that should last 6 - 9 hours in the classroom. The problem is, the design should relate to the things that are relevant to teenagers, and will stimulate them, unlike the acrylic clock project and the hanging basket bracket that kids seem to be making all over Scottish Schools. I had the thought of designing something to do with TV, the internet, MP3, etc, but have hit a dead end. This is a purely quantative survey, so the more answers, the better. Thanks all. R

Going down the technology route is a good start I'd say.

I'm trying to think, but it's not easy.

Maybe some kind of holder for something?
Can you do something with Photoshop and let them print their masterpieces? Then make a huge class collage, a la Andy Warhol?
A purse or handbag. Hair accessories. Accessories for their cell phones or back pack.
Well im 14 and id like to design a tablet pc, or an mp3 player , or a laptop, or even a next gen game consol of your own. i have a few designes myself.
babies?
Do it Yourself fashions...

or, Room design
You could ask the class what they would like to make. Like everyone writes down on a piece of paper and they all put in a bowl. then you read all the ideas ( in front of the class or in private) to get an idea. But I thought of making a holder for there cell phone or there ipod or a case for there remote controllers for there tv's ,dvd player, or stereo. You could teach them to knit or croka( spelling ?). It's always fun to show oyur friends something they have made.
