Organising images for a narrative/teaching approach
The lesson encourages students to think about how to portray their knowledge in novel ways through narrative(i) - which may engage some students who would usually be less interested. The lesson encourages students to think about how to capture valuable information and ensure that key elements are highlighted while not 'overloading' the viewer with data/images. The lesson can be tailored to the particular age group - for younger pupils a simple task could encourage them to take before/after photos and label changes. Older/more advanced pupils might like to explore time-lapse photogaphy, or perhaps even the use of different photographic equipment. Pupils should be encouraged to think about how this relates to the scientific method(i) The task is interactive, and could easily be conducted as a group work(i) activity as an element of an inquiry based learning project. It could also lends itself to whole class(i) dialogue(i) and the use of ICT(i) including visualisers or 'clicker' response systems for assessment(i) and questioning(i).
