This project will develop students' knowledge and understanding
of design/planning by considering how transport could be improved
along the Clyde. Learners will apply this knowledge in a real life
context by considering the implications of their wacky transport
ideas on the local environment. Final design will take the form of
a photomontage of the Clyde waterfront incorporating various
transport ideas to be presented to a Glasgow transport provider or
a transport design company.
Broad Outcomes of learning
• Subject knowledge gained and enhanced e.g. the
design process, working to the constraints of the design
brief
• Develop enterprise and employability skills:
application of knowledge in a real situation by being able to
follow a brief, by being in competition with others and by
presenting final solution to whole class (selling your product also
relates to selling oneself in an interview situation)
• Learners have developed enterprising skills
identified as 4 capacities of CfE
Relevance to curriculum
• Supports CfE Art & Design studies, students
will work with the visual elements: line, shape, and
composition
• Relevance of how transport/planning is relevant
to work and life (discuss types of transport) and how this subject
knowledge is put into practice in a real situation e.g. planners
competing for bids
