Content Standard2.1.2.CS.1
Learning Indicator(s)2.1.2.LI.2 - Analyse how selected analogue and digital media in nature and the built environment contribute to solving societal problems through the artworks they are used to create
Lesson FocusAnalyse how selected analogue and digital media in nature and the built environment contribute to solving societal problems through the artworks they are used to create
Previous KnowledgeLearners recall related ideas, vocabulary or experiences from earlier lessons and everyday contexts.
Lesson Objective(s)Describe the key idea in: Analyse how selected analogue and digital media in nature and the built environment contribute to solving societal problems through the artworks they are used to create Apply the idea through guided and independent learning activities. Demonstrate understanding through oral responses, written work or practical performance.
Essential Question(s)What knowledge, process or studio decision is central to Analyse how selected analogue and digital media in nature and the built environment contribute to solving societal problems through the artworks they are used to create? How can appropriate materials, tools, methods and visual thinking be used safely and effectively? How can the art/design response communicate meaning or address a real societal/community need?

Key Notes on Differentiation
ContentUse real objects, photographs, demonstrations, vocabulary prompts and worked visual examples for learners needing support. Extend advanced learners with independent research, additional constraints, alternative media or more complex technical/design decisions.
ProcessUse mixed-ability and gender-balanced grouping while ensuring every learner contributes practical and intellectual work. Allow visual, oral, written, tactile and digital documentation depending on learner needs and available resources.
ProductPermit appropriate curriculum-aligned outputs such as charts, pictorial inventories, visual diaries, proposals, 2-D/3-D works, artefacts, portfolios and exhibitions. Judge evidence of process, safe technique, craftsmanship, creativity, problem solving, communication and reflection.
