SHS3 Design And Communication Technology · Semester 1 Week 4: Object Manipulation in Drawing

Lesson notes

Learning Objectives

Indicator: 3.1.2.LI.2 - Use object manipulation techniques to create simple and complex designs as interventions for societal problems.

By the end of the lesson, learners can:

Identify a societal problem in their community that can be addressed through a designed object or product.
Apply at least three object manipulation techniques (such as rotation, repetition, scaling, mirroring, or distortion) to develop both a simple and a complex design concept.
Create a free-hand drawing of a design intervention that solves the identified societal problem, showing clear manipulation of an original natural or man-made object.
Justify, in a short oral presentation, how their chosen object manipulation techniques make the design effective for its intended purpose.
Work collaboratively in groups to compile a pictorial chart of at least five object-manipulated designs that serve as interventions for different societal challenges.

Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Collaborative/Group learning: In small groups, let learners identify and examine how simple/complex designs created by manipulating objects can be used as interventions for challenges in society.

Problems-Based Learning: In small groups, let learners generate a digital/manual pictorial table/chart of designs and objects created by manipulating objects that can be used as interventions for challenges in society.

Project-Based Learning: let learners work individually/in groups to use the available tools and techniques to create simple and complex designs as interventions for challenges in society using object manipulation techniques and freehand drawing.
