Improving Design Sub-skills
This Teachers TV programme follows resistant materials specialist Sharon Giraud, from Nower Hill High School in Harrow, as she teaches two lessons, three weeks apart, as part of a nine-week module on jewellery design. The new Key Stage Three Strategy at the time of filming placed a greater emphasis on design. Harrow was one of ten LEAs piloting a range of materials and lesson plans which were intended to deliver this focus. Sharon delays the specific task of jewellery design to allow students more time to develop original designs. This is done through the use of Chingdogu images and I-Pac (inspirational product activity) cards, which are intended to stimulate emotional responses that can be used as starting points for generating ideas.
