  • Consistent visual elements (Color, font, design elements)

Most Creative Design:

CLO: Students will be able to review where they are and refocus their plan for their social justice campaigns through analyzing feedback and implementing strategic changes. 

Mid-way Critique:

Focusing on academic language (Social Justice, Campaign, and Cohesiveness) interpret the intended meaning behind 4 artworks/campaigns. 

Target areas for feedback: 

What story does the piece communicate?
Does the series feel connected?
What feelings does the piece evoke?
What is one thing they could do to improve?

Take 4 sticky notes and answer one of these questions each for 4 different artworks. Choose the area that best matches the project you are critiquing. 

CLO: Students will be able to compare professional social justice ad campaigns to their own plan in order to increase effectiveness of their message. Students will be able to self evaluate and make changes based on their findings and summarize their end plan in writing.

CLO: Students will be able to develop a plan for their social justice campaign including learning goals, process, skills needed and end product. The plan should be submitted in writing. If you are working in a group, one submission is acceptable. 

Agenda: 

1. Choose your final social cause that you will be focusing on
2. Conduct initial research keeping in mind the following ideas:
   • why is this important?
   • who does this effect?
   • what can we do to positively impact the situation
3. Fill out the form below as you gain answers to your questions. This will be printed out for you and become your plan to guide your project.

CLO: Students will be able to define social justice in their own words and justify/ plan for a social justice campaign or propose one of their own through brainstorming and writing.

What is Social Justice?

• the view that everyone deserves equal economic, social and political rights and opportunities
• learn about the problems that dramatically impact the quality of life for different populations
• figure out a way to solve those problems

Analyze Banksy Message:

• With a partner, interpret and discuss the meaning behind these 3 images
• Be prepared to share

Brainstorm and choice process: 

• There are so many social causes to join. What is something that makes you feel angry, passionate, or motivated? What is the message you want to communicate?
• What will your campaign look like? 
  • Do you want to communicate staggering statistics? Infographic might be your answer.
  • Do you want to subtly awaken the same feeling you have in someone else? Print Campaign.
  • Do you want to shock and inspire someone to act quickly? Aurasma video campaign.

What if none of these inspire your creativity? Propose your own idea! Maybe design a fictional music concert as a benefit for your cause. Who would play? What would the advertising look like (Posters, tickets, etc)? What would an album cover look like?
