	Rationale           Project rationale   Students often do not understand non figurative or non representational images because they do not understand the transition between representational and figurative art. This project addresses an area of work that is often difficult for students to grasp in the classroom and provides an interesting context through which students will understand abstraction and the purpose of manipulating images. The use of ICT provided an interesting and motivational context that allowed the students to overcome their initial confusion and lack of interest and to achieve a range of creditable results.     Project goals   Manipulate digital images using Microsoft Photo Editor or a similar software application Re-assemble digital images using Microsoft Word or a similar software application Produce final design on a T-shirt or similar garment.
