Subject Grade Topic Time Period
Computer Science IX Introduction to Computer Graphics 45 mins 5th

Specific Objectives

Students will be introduced to the basics of computer graphics, understand key concepts, and gain an overview of the role of computer graphics in various applications.

Materials Needed

  • Computers with graphic software installed (optional, depending on practical exercises).
  • Whiteboard or projector for presentations.
  • Internet access for additional resources.

Introduction & Overview (5mins)

  • Define computer graphics as the creation, manipulation, and representation of visual images and animations using computers.
  • Discuss the wide range of applications for computer graphics, including design, entertainment, simulation, and virtual reality.

Lesson Outline (15 minutes):

Introduce fundamental concepts(10mins)

Pixel

Explain that images on a computer screen are made up of tiny dots called pixels.

  • Resolution: Discuss how resolution affects the quality and clarity of images.
  • Color Models: Briefly cover RGB and CMYK color models.
  • Raster vs. Vector Graphics: Explain the difference between raster and vector graphics.

Graphics Hardware and Software

  • Discuss the role of graphics hardware, including GPUs, in rendering graphics.
  • Introduce graphic software tools used in the industry, such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Blender, or other relevant tools.

2D and 3D Graphics

  • Differentiate between 2D and 3D graphics.
  • Discuss how 3D graphics are used in gaming, simulations, and virtual environments.
  • Introduce basic concepts like polygons, vertices, and shaders.

Applications of Computer Graphics (5 mins):

Explore real-world applications, such as:

  • Graphic design and illustration
  • Animation and film
  • Virtual reality and augmented reality
  • Video games
  • Medical imaging and simulations

Practical Demonstration (10 mins):

  • If computers with graphic software are available, demonstrate a simple graphics task. For example, creating a basic graphic or manipulating an image using a tool like Photoshop or GIMP.
  • Discuss the steps involved in the demonstration.

Q&A and Discussion (5 mins):

  • Allow students to ask questions and discuss their impressions.
  • Encourage discussions on potential career paths in computer graphics.

Homework/Next Steps

Assign a small project or research task for students to explore a specific aspect of computer graphics. This could involve researching a graphics technique, software tool, or application.

Assessment

Assess students based on their participation in discussions, understanding of key concepts, and any completed practical exercises or projects assigned as homework.
