Book Project Booklet

This is a graphic design and graphics-based project. I have used it mainly with key stage 3 and key stage 4 to over material of papers, boards, cards, and binding processes. I have also linked it in with some graphic design work to cover printing processes and commercial links with setting up pages and use of colour.
The booklet sets out a number of different design briefs that students can choose from and then set out their research, design ideas, development and making with an evaluation as well as areas to record knowledge and understanding of the different binding processes and some other content.
This project could easily be run in any classroom and not necessarily a workshop making it ideal for nonpractical work such as when a pandemic hits or a workshop is not available and it has even been used within the department I worked in by a non-specialist teacher. I found having a wide range of card and paper materials, particularly a good range of colours and patterned paper helpful and I normally make use of the office binding machine, stapler and have purchased a single hole punch device from eBay to enable most of the binding methods to be experimented with and used.
