- describe different structures developed by different cultures and compare them.
- explain differences in function, materials, and aesthetics of items with a common function.
- compare current designs and historical designs.
- illustrate the role of symmetry in design.
- describe structures in nature and how their structure is used to their advantage.
- compare natural structures to manufactured (man-made) structures (spider web versus a fishing net).
