Updated May 2015. This document has been updated in its entirety to address new issues that have arisen from moderation.

The prioritisation of design elements could be dependent on the intent for the outcome, an understanding of materials, socio-cultural factors related to where the outcome is to be situated, professional and personal beliefs, etc.

The nature of a technological outcome refers to its combined physical (what it looks like
and/or is comprised of) and functional nature (what it can do).
