Pre-planning considerations
Topic analysis
Using my degree in digital art, I hope to show students how to effectively use a wacom tablet and create a portrait easily with a simple step by
step process.
Students will learn how to use the brushes and the different layering systems in tangent with other systems in project based learning.
Each student will have the capacity to work with their own face or another face.
The most effective strategy in the photoshop area is showing students how to create patches of colour with the dropper tool.

Learner considerations
One of the learners in the class has learning difficulties however his portrait could be quite abstract. I will comment and give him compliments on
this rather than normal comments.

Learner prior knowledge

The students probably know how to use the tablets.

Literacy considerations
The students are to listen and to follow instruction.

Organisation and management

Seating
Students will be seated in their chairs in a U shaped classroom.

Timing
The lesson will take two doubles to complete with two different photocopies.
Behaviour
Students will be brought back onto task with quiet encouragement.

Safety and risk assessment

the risk factors are only if the students leave the class, unlikely.

Resources and equipment

Physical resources
Computers, photoshop, WACOM tablets.

Human resources (Teaching Assistants, parents or specialists)

Teacher assisting in technical and behavioural management.

Outcomes
Context of lesson
The students will be on the way to completing a portrait of themselves with a WACOM tablet on photoshop.

Lesson outcomes

Assessment of lesson outcomes

The students will know how to use layers, a dropper tool and a photo
to create a realistic portrait.

How are you going to know if the lesson outcomes have been
achieved?

What will you do to find out?

What assessment techniques are you going to use?

What sources of evidence are you going to use?

How are you going to record this information?

Some examples:

Students produced beautiful images that analysed forms

and broke down angles to produce lovely crafted
artworks.

Procedure
Students are to take photos with supplied camera, photos will go onto J drive for all students. Once the photo is selected the students
will open photoshop and wait for teachers cues.

Students will open up photoshop and their image and then listen to
instruction on how to proceed.

Key questions, including checking for

understanding

1045

Students will go through the process of creating new layers and using
dropper tool to select colour whilst using WACOM tablet to draw with.

What questions will you ask and when? List

the questions that you intend to use in the place
where they are to be asked.

What resources will you need at what point in

the lesson?
How are you checking that students understand
your instructions/explanations?
1115

Students are engaged and directed toward task if off task

What kinds of behaviour and classroom

management strategies will you use and when?
How are you providing for students who need
extension and further challenge, like the fast
finishers? How do you accommodate students
who require extra support?

1145

Students will either finish one artwork or will print off a halfway point
in their folio. This gives them a starting point for the next double.

1150

students will pack up and log off and pack up tablets

Also keep an eye on the time. Sometimes if

something is really going well but is taking
longer than expected keep going but consider
the rest of the lesson/ day. Also working out
when to change the pace of a lesson slow
down/speed up based on your immediate
assessment of student learning. Note reasons
for it in the evaluation of your lesson.

Self Evaluation
Students worked well and the lesson was a success and well worth the time and effort involved in explaining the intricacies of the project.
One student kept on going off task after arriving late. I managed to put out his fire a couple of times.
