Why this why now
As pupils begin to navigate online content more independently, it is important they understand how digital images are created, edited, and shared. This unit builds their skills in using digital devices purposefully while exploring how images can be altered and the potential effects of these changes. By engaging with photo editing, pupils consider ethical and social implications, such as misrepresentation and influence on self-image, becoming more critical and responsible digital consumers.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Pupils recognise how computers make use of images.
- Pupils can select digital tools appropriate to the task at hand.
- Pupils understand that everything they see online is not necessarily true or accurate.
