Terminal Objective

By the end of this lesson, students will be able to explain the concept of exposure in photography based on adjustments of the aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings under different lighting conditions.

Enabling Objectives

1.1. Given a book chapter on photography, specify how aperture adjustments affect depth of field, in two sentences or less.

1.2. Given a book chapter on photography, specify how shutter speed affects light exposure over time, in two sentences or less.

1.3. Given a book chapter on photography, specify how ISO affects the camera sensor’s sensitivity to light, in two sentences or less.

1.4. Given a lecture on photographic exposure, recall the relationship between aperture, shutter speed, and ISO in determining exposure, with 90% accuracy.

2.1. Given a workbook and a demonstration by an instructor on the relationship of camera settings, label each drawing showing aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings that match a low-lit condition, back-lit subjects, and full-sun situations, with accuracy.

3.1. Given a camera and indoor and outdoor settings, take three photos with different aperture settings to see the effect on depth of field, with 90% accuracy.

3.2. Given a camera and indoor and outdoor settings, take three photos with various shutter speeds to capture both motion blur and frozen action, with 90% accuracy.

3.3 Given a camera and indoor and outdoor settings, take three photos with adjusted ISO settings in different lighting conditions to show the impact on image noise and exposure, with 90% accuracy.

4.1. Given a set of your unique photos, submit a portfolio of five to ten photographs that demonstrate the understanding of exposure, including a mix of images with varied aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings, taken in different lighting conditions, at 100% submittal.

5.1. Given a set of two peer portfolios, conduct a portfolio review providing constructive feedback, with 100% participation.
