[vet-mm] Unit 1/2 MM

[EDWARDS. John]

Hey Guys,
 
I know that you are all probably concentrating on the exam on Friday but I have just put together what I was thinking of teaching for Unit 1/2 MM in 2009. I would love some comments especially if I have made a major gaff.
 
Term 1
Particpate in OH&S Processes
Produce drawings to represent & communicate the concept
 
* Introduce some animation theory
* Review OH&S - Intro to PhotoShop - Creation of an OH&S Poster (got from this year's PD)
* Students follow a design process - create a storyboard (fulfill module criteria) then concentrate on creating an animation with Flash
 
Term 2
Maintain Interactive Content
 
* Introduce some webpage theory and some copy/content theory
* Teach some CSS, HTML and importing of Flash into a webpage
* Website design skills using Dreamweaver
* We have a competition called GippsWeb whereby students are grouped with a local organisation and they need to create a website for them
 
Term 3
Prepare audio assets
 
* Teach audio and video theory
* Use Audacity
* May need to incorporate video in preparation for CUFDIG301A next year)
* Set up some teachers with microphones and digital recorders to record their lessons - students edit the recording and add introductions etc - create a website when audio is uploaded as podcasts for use by Year 12 students. Perhaps video some lessons and follow the same procedure as the audio.
 
Term 4
Produce and prepare photo images
 
* Explore photoshop, scanning and image creation/manipulation
* Not sure of a project yet
* Cover a lot of the VCD theory
 
 
There are three remaining modules: Follow a design process, Develop & extend critical & creative thinking skills and Work effectively in the screen and media industries. Each of these modules I thought could be incorporated in all work throughout the year, as opposed to setting a particular time period to complete them.
 
Any thoughts on this structure or any errors would be much appreciated.
 
Cheers,
 
John Edwards
