 DMA - Design, Make & Appraise
While for many teachers it is easy to have children design and make something, or make something from a given design, the most important process, one that is often neglected, is the appraisal of what has actually been constructed.
The process approach of design, make and appraise is an area that I had probably seen in practice before but had never really taken much notice of.
Therefore, it is important to find out what knowledge children have at the beginning of their school life or prior to commencing a unit of work and to introduce the process of design, make and appraise as early as possible (Fleer and Jane, 1999).

Discuss with the children who their frame is being designed and made for eg a frame containing a photograph of them as a gift for a relative or friend.
Ask the children to evaluate their frame according to the shared criteria and their original design criteria.

 dma.doc
One example of a packet-based DMA device is a mass storage device, in which the driver indicates to the DMA device the sectors to read and provides the device with a pointer to a buffer in system memory that will receive the data.
Because drivers for packet-based DMA devices are typically less complex to write than those for common-buffer devices, driver writers that are new to Windows might consider first implementing a driver for a hybrid device using the simpler packet-based interface, and later adding support for the common-buffer area.
Drivers that follow the Windows DMA model use their device’s capabilities to determine the size of the memory pointers that they pass to their device, as opposed to the physical addressing capability or amount of memory installed on a given system.

 7. Leakage monitoring and control
The first step in the design of a DMA boundary is to study the area, using experience gained from existing practice and local knowledge, to identify any potential problem areas.
DMA data identify unreported bursts (from sudden changes in volume) and cumulative leakage (from a combination of small bursts and weeping joints and fittings).
In this context, a problem DMA is defined as a DMA where the apparent leakage has remained high in spite of intensive leakage control activity and the application of normal DMA maintenance procedures.
