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.

Part A

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.
