Efficiency, Accuracy, and Independence


Taking part in NCEA Textiles requires a certain amount of efficiency, accuracy, and independence. 

The definition of Efficiency is: The state or quality of being efficient; an action designed to achieve efficiency.


The questions in your first assignment are designed to make you think about your self-management when it comes to getting the most out of your fabric and the materials required to complete the set task. Along with the efficiency with the required resources, is efficiency with your time. To be completely efficient with your time means that you are dedicated to the task and utilising your time in class wisely. 

The definition of Accuracy is: The quality or state of being correct or precise; the degree to which the result of a measurement, calculation, or specification conforms to the correct value or a standard.

Accuracy when making your shorts requires you to do your best when following correct procedures to produce a quality garment. Again, this is includes self-management because your finished garment should be of high quality and fit for purpose.

The definition of Independence: Not relying on another or others for support; possessing a competency.

You are required to independently sew a pair of summer PJ shorts for your first assignment. By now, you should have the ability to thread a machine and find solutions to basic problems with the sewing machines. An excellence in your first assignment can be achieved by problem solving and working to the best of your ability with a small amount of support from me.
