North Lanarkshire Students Become Officially Inspired by London 2012
North Lanarkshire Council Learning and Leisure Services and The City of Glasgow College are delighted to announce that the Design Enterprise Challenge, a project that delivers creativity, innovation and opportunity for students within North Lanarkshire secondary schools, has been granted the Inspire mark by the London 2012 Inspire Programme.
The Design Enterprise Challenge has been a valuable feature of North Lanarkshire Enterprise and Art and Design programme for a number of years. Teams of Art and Design and Business Education students from secondary schools all over North Lanarkshire are given the opportunity to compete against each other using the facilities and expertise of the City of Glasgow College to produce and market a creative outcome.
Over the years, teams have been tasked with diverse challenges. This session the students will be working on an exciting new project themed around the Olympic values of respect, excellence and friendship and the Paralympic values of courage, determination, inspiration and equality.
The London 2012 Inspire programme recognises innovative and exceptional projects that are directly inspired by the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Seb Coe, Chair of the London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games said: “The Inspire programme is ensuring the legacy of the 2012 Games starts now as projects like the Design Enterprise Challenge are enabling young people in North Lanarkshire to make positive life changes”.
Design Enterprise Challenge
The Design Enterprise Challenge has been a valuable feature of North Lanarkshire’s Enterprise and Art and Design programme for a number of years. Teams of students from secondary schools all over North Lanarkshire are given the opportunity to experience a design and enterprise challenge within the City of Glasgow College. The teams consist of both Art and Design and Business Education students working together to produce and market a creative outcome. Over the years teams have been tasked with diverse challenges, from designing packaging for the Coca Cola Company to creating promotional products for the 2011 International Children’s Games. As highlighted in Building The Curriculum 4, Curriculum for Excellence can best be delivered through partnership working. The Design Enterprise Challenge delivers this through the City of Glasgow College and North Lanarkshire sharing a common understanding around skills development and application. Together they plan and deliver experiences which meet the needs of individual young people, actively engaging them with opportunities for skills development in real life contexts.
2012 Challenge Arrangements
The Teams:
Teams consist of 6 S3 pupils accompanied by a teacher. The split of Business Education students to Art and Design students should be 2:4.
Briefing Morning:
The briefing morning will be held on Tuesday 31st January 2012 in Kildonan Street.
The briefing will consist of two parts and clearly outline the research the teams will be required to carry out prior to the Challenge Day.
Teams will be issued with guidelines on the format that their research should be presented in.
The City of Glasgow College staff will further illustrate this by showing the pupils examples of their students’ mood boards and workbooks
Challenge Day:
The Challenge will be fully
revealed on the morning of the Challenge Day of Wednesday 14th March. It has been decided not to fully reveal the challenge until this time to ensure originality and a level playing field for teams on the Challenge Day.
Teams will have ICT access in order to carry out any further background research information they may need for the specific task. Business Education pupils will be charged with recording the design process using digital media in order to produce a promotional piece for the Presentation Evening.
