*Teacher info:

2.1 Tell pupils to get into groups of four to six (depending on class size). Show pupils the instructions on the whiteboard/flipchart:

·         Look at the card on your table.

·         Which image is best for the purpose written at the top of the card?

·         Why?

Tell pupils to look at the activity card that their group has been given, and to discuss the questions. Ask each group to identify someone to report their answers back to
the rest of the class.

2.2 Tell pupils that in this lesson they will learn to consider a particular audience and purpose. Load the presentation file teacher2_1.ppt  on the large display.
This comprises a title slide followed by six slides, each showing one of the six activity cards. Show each slide in turn.

Explain that images can be used in many different ways. Use these examples to prompt discussion about why certain images are more effective than others in a particular situation. Explain that this concept is central to the idea of ‘Fitness for purpose’ and that images in a presentation must be matched to its purpose and
to the audience.

For each slide, ask the representative for the group with the matching card to
report back to the class. Encourage others to contribute. Use these questions as prompts.

·         Which image did your group choose for the purpose shown? Why?

·         Would your choice be the same if the purpose were different? Ask pupils
to give examples where the image not chosen might be appropriate.

·         Would your choice be the same if the audience were different? Ask pupils
to give examples where the image not chosen might be appropriate.

Does the use of colour (rather than just black and white) change your
choice? Does it make the image more or less effective?

2.3 You may decide not to show all 4 ways of how to import images.  It may be easier to show how to import clipart and then get students to start 2.4.  You can then show how to import an image from the shared area.  IMPORTANT! The ICT Dept will need to take a class photo prior to the lesson and put the image in the shared area.  If any students have brought in images on disk, show them how to copy the images into their me folder and then access them in powerpoint.  If any students have a web address of an image they will probably be competent enough to be able to copy and paste the image, but will need assistance in accessing the Internet.

2.4 You will probably need to refresh students on how to move an image on a slide using the 4 arrow cursor and to resize images using the corner rather than a side to keep the correct proportions.

 Extension Higher ability students should explore the picture toolbar in order to crop an image or change its brightness.
