| Synopsis: |
The full-colour photocopiable publication Picture Power 3 - Notes, Activities, Images accompanies the CD-ROM, with a range of activities on each of the 11 modules, designed to introduce students to the potential of editing with Picture Power 3. It includes: * at-a-glance replicas of the screen layouts for each story, for easy reference. * photocopiable layouts for each story, so that teachers can distribute hard copies of the images in the classroom where appropriate, as a prelude to working with the software. * pupil activities for each story, focusing on specific aspects of visual and media literacy * teachers' notes for each story, offering guidance on theoretical and practical issues.* 'Mainline Station', 'Out of Class', 'Friendship', 'Hove Road' and 'Pursued' highlight issues of film language, viewpoint and genre in constructing and editing narratives * 'Money' and 'Christmas Shopping' require more thematic, metaphorical and creative approaches * 'Picturing the Suffragettes' explores aspects of the History curriculum, focusing on interpreting and evaluating historical evidence, argument writing, and representation * 'Painting Stories' looks at narrative within art * The 'Do-It-Yourself' module offers endless creative possibilities, and this book provides just a few starting points. |
