A 4 hour learning activity/project that encourages independent learning to meet set outcomes. This activity was developed as a short project based learning activity to compliment the work that the pupils do in school. There are 3 milestones for the pupils to complete using the resources provided to answer a driving question. Driving Question How can we convince people to use eco-friendly products and reduce the impact they have on the planet? Context As a consumer you buy and throw away lots of products such as phones, pens, packaging. These products not only use lots of our resources but end up in landfills and cause pollution. We should all look to reduce our impact on the environment but as designers we should also consider how products impact the environment and look for ways to reduce that impact. Complete the milestones above to investigate the impact and how it can be reduced. In the resource you will find an overview sheet and 4 suitable resource sheets to help pupils complete the desired outcomes.

This lesson follows on from the revision of a designer lesson in my resources. The reasonong behind the lesson is to reiterate the work of the designer but to also focus on some sketching skills and design thinking. There are 3 tasks. 1 Practicing sketching - Straight lines, Curves, Ellipses, Perspective, Coverging lines 2. Practicing shading and contering (if you are not great at product design then I suggest you use this video from you tube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-UqGtsjKiU ) 3. Design a clock using sketching skills in the style of Phillipe Stark There are some visual images that you can use for inspiration as well. Not my greatest resource but could come in handy
