Maze Cafe - Developing ideas

Lesson objectives: (This lessons objectives are self-reflective)

ON ARRIVAL TASK:
Go to your pathway groups:TEXTILES, GRAPHICS, FINE ART AND ILLUSTRATION and Open your sketchbook up to your mind maps and initial design ideas.
LESSON OBJECTIVES: in this lesson you will:
1 Peer assess in your personal pathway groups each others current ideas, documenting feedback on ideas in your sketchbooks under 'peer review' on your design ideas pages.
2 Broaden your peer assessment, in groups of two, to assess the sketchbook of your partner.
3 Develop your ideas further, using all the peer feedback you have received to progress your ideas, to meet UNIT:1 objective:4 and 5 and UNIT:2 objectives: 1,2 &3
4 Review your ideas and set research targets to achieve by next lesson 


STARTER: 10mins Peer Feedback on ideas
Peer assess in your groups each others current ideas, documenting feedback on ideas in you sketchbooks under 'peer review' on your design ideas pages.


TASK:1 10mins Peer Feedback on sketchbook
Broaden your peer assessment, in groups of two, to cover the sketchbook of your partner.
Maybe consider the following UNIT:1 and 2 Objectives:

UNIT:1
1          Know how to identify sources for visual recording
2          Be able to record visually
3          Understand visual recording in others’ work
4          Understand own visual recording
5          Be able to develop visual recording to produce outcomes

UNIT:2
1          Be able to explore materials, techniques and processes safely
2          Be able to use materials, techniques and processes

3          Understand the suitability of materials, techniques and processes

TASK:2 30mins Develop your ideas further, 
Using all the peer feedback you have received you now need to progress your ideas further to meet UNIT:1 objective:4 and 5 and UNIT:2 objectives: 1,2 &3.  As you develop your ideas you must record your findings and fill out the materials and applications sheet, recording your intensions in use of materials, techniques and processes.

Extension tasks:

Use own designs to extend to other pathways, how would or design look on a wall, a t-shirt or a menu?

PLENARY:10mins Reviewing our progress
Review your ideas in a self reflective plenary, by setting yourself research targets to achieve by next lesson and to complete your materials list.

HOMEWOK:
Review your ideas in a self reflective plenary, setting yourself research targets to achieve by next lesson to complete your materials list.

Maze Cafe: Developing ideas

In this lesson you will mainly answering the following learning objectives for: UNIT 2: Materials, Techniques and Processes in Art and Design


LESSON OBJECTIVES: in this lesson we will

1          Explore materials, techniques and processes safely, recording findings in CPLAD
2          Be able to use materials, techniques and processes to visually record final outcomes intentions

3          Understand the suitability of materials, techniques and processes


TASK:1 20mins Explore materials, techniques and processes safely
Group to discuss CPLAD form.  Group to fill out (in groups of 5) CPLAD's for all experiments so far - using the checklist ON THE BLOG and THE BRIEF to guide your memory.  Group to feedback and record findings on lesson blog.

TASK:2 60mins Be able to use materials, techniques and processes to visually record final outcomes intentions
You need to create 2 x pages of design ideas – with colour samples, fabric or paper examples – photos and contextual links to artists you have been inspired by. But first put in the mind maps and Pinterest mood boards you have created.  Then start your design ideas.

TASK:3 10mins Understand the suitability of materials, techniques
You need to start recording what materials you are to use and their applications, use the Materials v Applications list to record 1 to 1 feedback with the teacher  and post it in your books under proposed intensions.

TASK:4 30 mins Be able to use materials, techniques and processes to visually record final outcomes intentions
Use 1 to 1 feedback to guide design ideas, reviewing and refining as you go.

HOMEWORK:
Complete CPLAD and Materials v Applications for experiments.

Maze Cafe - Initial Ideas

INITIAL IDEAS: VISUAL RESEARCH

Lesson Objectives (in this lesson you will):


TASK 1: 45mins Mind Map
Teacher to re-introduce brief and show previous learners outcomes. 
Individuals to take notes for own individual mind map and then construct mind map

EXTENSION:
Learner to extend visual recording skills by making mind map more visual - using sketchnoting, using example below for inspiration:


HOMEWORK:
Discuss the project experiments in a self-reflective plenary that sets out to discuss the following points.


TASK:3 - PLENARY - recap on what have we covered this week, where are we going, what do we need to do to achieve success
Q and A on: 




  1. The importance of documenting and visual research?
  2. What pathways are we following?
  3. What is the deadline?
