On Wednesday 10th and Thursday 11th of June we had visits from the local Primary 7s. Their visits are themed around Guitar Hero and when they visited CDT we used Adobe Photoshop to render the image below. Click on it to see examples of their work!!

Please take a minute to fill out our quick survey on homeworks.

Homework Survey

Thanks

Miss Hoban/ Howieson’ s Higher class have been investigating, researching and reporting about specific Metalwork processes. In small groups the class were assigned a different process and have created individual powerpoints to explain the process to their peers. All presentations required suitable colours, text and layout in order to effectively communicate to the viewer. The class will be formatively assessing each others work online.

Mr Hall’s S2 Graphic Communication class have recieved several homeworks.

These homeworks are being posted onto the Standard Grade Graphic Communication pages as PDFs.

This will allow pupils to ensure they have the correct homework and print off a replacement copy if they have lost it (and somehow, believe it or not, this does happen!)

The page can be accessed by clicking on the relevant links under the S2/3 header above or by clicking here.

Some helpful information for the homeworks can be found in the course notes pages or in the useful links.

Mr Hall’s second year Graphic Communication class have just completed building a model dice using Autodesk Inventor. This was then used this to help create a poster in Adobe Photoshop.  Below are images of these posters. Well done, they look excellent!

Miss Hobans class have just completed a storyboard each as part of their SG folios. A massive amount of effort and creativity has gone into these as the results show and are proving difficult to judge! To help, the class are taking part in online peer assessment by reviewing each others work (constructively!). This activity is invaluable for all students as these comments will help positively inform the next piece of creative folio work. Thanks to my class for your hard work….keep it up!
