I have been teaching for 12 years in both state and independent schools. Prior to this I specialised and worked in the fashion and interior design industries. I use a variety of mediums in my own work, and specialise in printmaking, portraiture, and graphic design. I'm always looking to learn new skills and recently finished a course in woodwork furniture design, which I loved! I have always enjoyed creating useful and beautiful resources for students and so think it is time I share them.

Mindmap and Brief  "Perception"  project idea

Mindmap and Brief "Perception" project idea

(1)
Mind map It is a starting point for a project you may want to create. I usually start my projects with one word ideas, and then create my own mindmaps as a way to start thinking about artists I want to introduce to students and then consider possible subthemes to that topic. This usually helps me then write a brief and a scheme of work. I just found this old mindmap on a project I didn’t deliver but it’s a nice visual starting point for anyone looking for ideas. Creating project themes from scratch can be time consuming, and so I intend to share more of these briefs that I have created in the last 12 years. This brief focuses on the theme of Perception. I have edited the brief so it is not directly linked to an exam board, it can be modified by teachers to link more directly to your own specifications and assessment criteria.
