Activity One - Design

For this activity you are going to be designing a poster which illustrates the positives and negatives that exploration has brought to the country of origin and country of destination. 

• • 1. Watch the YouTube clip and make notes on the impact of exploration - positive and negative.

    2. Read the presentation and add to your mind map.

    3. Discuss your findings with a partner and add any new ideas to your map.

    4. Collect a piece of A3 paper and create a poster to reflect the positive and negatives of exploration. Remember to add bold titles and colour.

Presentation

• • • A3 paper.

    • Divide paper in half and put the heading positives on one side and negatives on the other. Remember impact does not always mean negative. Think about place in terms of what, who and where benefitted from this exploration and then the opposite. 

    • Use images and key words rather than full sentences or paragraphs to illustrate your findings.

    • Colour - it needs to be eye catching to make someone want to interact with your poster.
