This project will develop students' k/u of expressive processes by
using the Clyde skyline as the subject matter for an original mural
to participate in a presentation/competition to a local artist,
local authority personnel and an exhibition at parents'
evening. Learners will consider green issues by using
recycled materials. Style used: collage/mosaic of recycled
materials. Final presentations could be presented to a Clyde
developer for recommending use - learners request feedback.
Broad Outcomes of learning
• Subject knowledge gained and enhanced e.g. the expressive
process, learning how to grid up, collage etc
• Develop employability skills: planning, organisation,
contributing, communication
• Learners have developed enterprising skills identified as 4
capacities of CfE
Relevance to curriculum
• Supports CfE Art, students will work with the visual elements:
line, shape and colour
• How this subject knowledge is put into practice in a real
situation by considering recycling and what impact this has on our
environment; considering how the mural would fit into the
environment of the Clyde; and considering public art and its
relevance to our environment
