Design Lesson Plan - Description
The design lesson plan assignment includes:
· a written lesson plan,
· artwork and
· grading of artwork.
A draft is due on August 8.
The final lesson plan, grading, and artwork are due on August 14. This assignment is worth 15% of your final grade. See the grading criteria under the assessment section of this course.
Learning Outcomes
· Develop a design assignment that targets some of the elements and principles of design and presents a design challenge. (You may create your own assignment or adapt a class assignment.)
· Describe the steps required to teach the lesson and complete the design by writing a lesson plan.
· Test the lesson plan by completing the design assignment while following the steps included in the plan.
· Evaluate the design using the summative/ post-assessment section you write for your lesson plan.
Using the lesson plan template provided, write a lesson plan as follows:
· Lesson Goals
· What will students do?
· What will students learn?
· Write Learning Outcomes (3-6 outcomes)
· Clearly state the lesson goals. Start each outcome with an active verb (e.g., describe, define, illustrate). Refer to "Bloom's Taxonomy" below.
· Determine what students need to think, know and/or be able to in order to complete the assignment.
· State what students will do and what the purpose of the action is. (e.g., Create a design that conveys a specific mood by using a variety of line types and textures.)
· Post-assessment
· Create a summative assessment. Ensure that the assessment outlines:
· What evidence students will provide to demonstrate that they have met the lesson goals.
· How the instructor will know that the students have met goals.
· The criteria you list in the post-assessment should align with the learning outcomes you wrote for this lesson.
· Instructor Activities
· Describe how the instructor will communicate goals and what the instructor will do while guiding students through learning activities.
· Include each step the instructor takes to guide student learning.
· Include formative assessment (e.g., informal critiques) and time estimates.
· A person reading this lesson should be able to complete the activity.
· Learning Activities
· Describe what the student will do in response to instructor activities.
· Provide detailed description that explains how students will meet learning outcomes.
· Include time estimates.
· List resources required for instructor and learning activities (e.g., images, questions, readings).
· Complete sections at the top of the template.
· Lesson Title
· Level - grade or age and beginner, intermediate, or advanced.
· Time estimate - total time required including set-up and clean-up.
· Bridge - an activity, image, words, music to help students transition from where they were before class, to design class.
· Pre-assessment - an activity to identify abilities and gaps. This activity is to inform instructors of pre-teaching requirements.
· Participatory Learning - a brief summary of approaches used for creating the artwork, critique, discussion, analysis, and/or sharing ideas.
· Summary - At the end of class offer students a closing or ending to the lesson. Reinforce or restate the intended outcomes.
Part B
· Test the accuracy of your lesson plan by asking a classmate to create the design that you have written a lesson for. During the lesson plan workshop your classmate can use your draft lesson plan to make the design.
· Revise your lesson plan based on feedback you receive during the lesson plan workshop.
· Make the design.
· After completing the design, grade it using the grading criteria (post-assessment) you created.
· When grading the design, assign numerical values to the criteria, and
· provide comments to explain or support the grades.
