This project will develop students' k/u of 2D design processes
by using the Clyde waterfront (bridges, architecture, the Clyde
itself, boats etc) as a starting point to create a unique gift shop
bag design for a waterfront shop and participate in a presentation
to tourism business, local designer and tourist board to win the
chance to have it produced.
Broad Outcomes of learning
- Subject knowledge gained and enhanced e.g. The design process,
working to the constraints of the design brief (responsibility to
meeting needs of others), intended market etc
- Develop enterprise and employability skills: application of
knowledge in a real situation by being able to follow a brief, by
being in competition with others and by presenting finished product
to whole class and then panel of experts (selling your product also
relates to selling oneself in an interview situation)
- Learners have developed enterprising skills identified as 4
capacities of CfE
Relevance to curriculum
- Supports CfE Art, students will work with the visual elements:
shape, colour and pattern
- Relevance of how textile design is relevant to work and life
(everything that you see around has been through the design
process). How this subject knowledge is put into practice in a real
situation
