After completing visual identity practice I then move onto teaching students how to prepare images that they download off the web so they are suitable for a ‘main graphic’. On the stages we work through setting up folders to keep them organised, download and store the images; change the resolution, take screenshots to evidence the steps taken; save the image for use later. You will need to think of a practice idea as I use this sheet alongside a themed set of lessons preparing students for R094. Note: Repurposing is mentioned though does not have detail about this as I have another dedicated resource for this.

First in a series of lessons that aim to teach KS3/4 students how to develop a website using RocketCake 5. Completely reworked from my RocketCake 4 KS4 lessons - students now learn by creating a website with you, starting with a master page to promote consistency. A good tool to help students in Creative iMedia R097 if their brief can be solved with a website as no coding is required. Lesson includes teacher PowerPoint with videos guiding the process (and an all-new voice!); client brief (PDF); separate videos (MP4) for students to play on their own; student checklist; assets to help build the page quickly e.g. logo, text; teacher solution to tasks.

A one-page mini project in which students have to make a tourist information guide for where they live. Includes a brief template for students and a slide to show on the whiteboard for a teacher.

Updated for 2023 - now editable and the corrupted ZIP file has been fixed so all files open correctly!
