Little Photopea exercise

Third lesson in my series to help teach students how to use the basics of Adobe Illustrator (based on 2023 version) The focus of the lesson is to help students to learn how to trace images as well be exposed to the rectangle, pen and shape builder tools as they create a lorry. Once the lorry has been created in Tasks 1-5 the focus shifts to the more challenging use of the Pen Tool plus the curvature tool to help make paths easier! If you use the complete set of lessons this will help to re-practice the skills - needed for student success. Lesson includes Microsoft PowerPoint presentation (including embedded videos); starter activity; plenary questions (based on Bloom’s Taxonomy); student tasks with Microsoft Word task sheet which acts as a tick sheet and direction to help video. Suitable for Creative iMedia R094 as students could use Adobe Illustrator alongside Photoshop to design a logo. Please note: lesson created using 2023 version. Whilst almost all tools will be the same, there may be a few that are not present in earlier versions.

Part of a mini-range of visual aids to help students learn the graphics package The sheet has a small set of activities on the second sheet PDF format so could be shared electronically or printed if you want students to tick the boxes Useful for Key Stage 3 (particuarly for differentiation) and/or Creative iMedia R082/R094 This sheet covers changing the brush size, spot healing brush tool; blur/sharpen/smudge and destructive/non-destructive workflow

A crib sheet and activity sheet to support students learning how to create a Slide Master in PowerPoint (for consistency) Includes SVG logo file AND completed example as well as a crib sheet without the activties too

Differentiated Python Variables lesson where students think of what data can be stored in a container - it then automatically writes the story in the PDF. Students then copy the code, run it and answer questions about it. Students could then extend the code. Includes lesson presentation (with Bloom’s taxonomy questions for the plenary)

Not specific to an area of Computing Copy out of the presentation to put in your own slide deck!

Little activity that uses quite a few tools! Would be useful if students had some knowledge but not a requirement! It may be worth showing them the pen tool/pointing them to my YouTube channel if they find the sheet tricky! Includes supporting presentation with a starter actitivity (creating one quickly in Paint), quick explanation of bitmap and vector and then a preview of what they will make. Also includes the video which is available on YouTube. Created using version 21.
