In this unit pupils learn to use an object-based graphics package to produce images and visual models. They learn the key differences between an object-based program and a paint package and understand that visual models can be used to identify patterns and relationships. Pupils will be able to apply what they have learnt in this unit when making maps in geography and drawing diagrams in science.
