Teachers' Resource: DesignLab
DesignLab Online - Get inspiration for your Art & Design and Design & Technology lessons here
Here you can get original ideas for your Art & Design and Design & Technology lessons and schemes of work. All the workshops were created with schools and contemporary artists, makers and designers. Students were given professional briefs, explored different creative processes and making techniques and they used the V&A's collections to enhance their knowledge of design history and to fuel inspiration for projects.
If you would like to take part in DesignLab, visit our schools page and sign up for our e-newsletter to hear about the latest opportunities.
