I will be delivering 13 lessons to this year 8 group within the unit title: Me, Myself and I. Below is the lesson sequence and what technologies will be used.
- Introduce myself, class expectations, homework drawings (use PowerPoint).
- Teach tonal drawing and discuss self portrait photo design. (no ICT just old fashioned books)
- Photo shoot. (digital cameras, mobile phones with camera feature)

This unit counts as IT but not really ICT. The interacting is between student and technology. Not student technology student technology. It is lacking a dynamic conversation between maker and maker via the channel of technology. But it still would make for an interesting project.
ReplyDeleteWhat if: there was a way that the viewer (say in a gallery) could alter the outcome of the portrait in process movie. And so the students work begins with one movie but ends with more. Each person who alters creates an alter of the original making a representation of web 2.0 rather than using web 2.0????
