Slide Show, Art & Peer Assessment

This week as part of our two week Art focus, the children each chose one of five artists to research and create a slide show about.  The final step of their research project was to recreate a piece of the artist's work.  Then they had to figure out how to get a picture of themselves with their art work into their slide show using their Chromebooks.  This created an instant way to document and share their art work, posting it alongside a picture of the original that was their inspiration.

Upon completion of their slide show research project, they shared it with a classmate who used a shared google doc to complete a peer assessment, providing feedback and feed forward. See peer assessment HERE.

This complete task is using ICT for redefinition.  The children researched their artist on line.  They created a slide show that was able to be shared with a classmate for feedback and peer assessment.  The slide show is also uploaded to their personal blog for sharing with the wider community.

Google Draw and Art

This week for Art week at our school the children will be using Google Drawings to create a Roy Lichtenstein inspired piece of art.

This would be a sample of Modification.  The children are using online tools to create and then share their designs online.  They are working independently on their own projects so there is no collaboration.  Their art projects are not animated nor do they link to anything else, both of which would take this exercise into the realm of Redefinition.
