====//Through the Essential Learnings and Cross-curriculum Priority docucments this page will highlight the curriculum intent that students will engage with on this wiki learning experience. Students will need to **use the processes of __ways of working__** to **develop** their **__knowledge and understanding__** of the SOSE topic. //====

The following information was extracted from: [|QSA Studies of Society and Environment (SOSE) Year 7 Essential Learnings] [|QSA Technology Year 7 Essential Learnings]  [|QSA Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) Year 7 Cross-curriculum Priorities]

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Technology as human endeavour
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Decisions made about the design, development and use of products can impact positively or negatively on people, their communities and environments

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Information, materials and systems (resources)
 * Resources are selected according to their characteristics, to match requirements of design challenges and suit the user
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Techniques and tools are selected to manipulate or process resources to enhance the quality of products and to match design ideas, standards and specifications
