Prep for AS91627

 My Year 13 students are working on AS91627 - Initiate Design Ideas through Exploration

We are at the "exploration" part at the moment which basically means we are making a right mess. Having fun though.

I have been away from the class for 4 weeks this term, so we are not where we "should be", according to the original plan but while I was away they started theory work on the next standard so the time was still used well.

My planning for AS91627 is a combination of the class site, a workspace, one to one work with each student as they are all using different starting points and made examples taking them through what they need to do.

Here is the link to the class site - we are up to working on the design elements.

This planning is all put onto a workspace too so the students can use this to log the progress of their work. I have written a blog post about prepping the workspaces for drawn work - link here

I have put the same support and examples on both the class site and the workspace and links to each one, so wherever the students connect with the work, the help is there and links to where they can submit their work when done.

Here are some of the students doing press printing with EVA foam for the pattern section of the work.

This next step os to analyse where the pattern elements are - rotational, linear, translational etc (they are always surprised when these maths terms come up!!), photograph their compiled sheets and put the photographs onto the evidence documents in the workspace.
