Week 8: 8/3 2 Take aways from the Article

During the progress of Do-It-Yourself (DIY), students be the leader to decide what they want to create. It's develop not only the art working skills with different media, also the ability of problems solving, logical thinking to create the story, planning skill, design, and ect. It's the great way for students develop in a complex way.

Good ideas need to think outside of the box. Although technology expand quickly in today. Students also need to inspire from some traditional places. Attend or create some opportunities for students, such as plan a different activities, go to the museum to see the traditional art works, and etc. will help students collect ideas. When combine these ideas with technology, it always has some amazing out comes.

Week7: 7/2 Audacity

Week 7: 7/2 Reflection on Sound

I think sound is another interesting media can include in art class. Before touch and edit the sound, I never thought sound can be an art media. It's separate that can't combine together. After edit the sound I found out students can create different and interesting use sound to help explain their artworks.

Week 6: Impact 25

This project we found people who are vegetarians hold the frame we made took a photo. And also we asked them how long they have been a vegetarian depend on years. Then calculated how much gallons of water they saved depend on years they have been a vegetarian with the diagram we found online. The calculation is depend on the average a person eat beef yearly. 

For this project, we trying to inspire and impact people become a vegetarian because it's relate to the environment and protection of the animals. And fortunately after this project, two of my friends become a vegetarian. 

Week 6: 6/2 Video in the classroom

Include video in the tradition classroom it will consider video as one component in a thoughtful lesson plan, help students make new connections between curriculum topics, and discover links between these topics and the world outside the classroom. Video as visual tool also help catch students eyes and make them pay more attention to the class and fully engaged in class activity and discussion.

Use video in lesson project also help students open their traditional mind that use different way to do the work and develop their problem solving skills. Because in the progress of make video will meet a lot of problems. It's important for students to solve problems by themselves. Video is a tool can help teacher create various different interesting lesson, such as make a video to tell personal story.

Week5: 5/1 Movements

Week 5: 5/3 Three Take - Away from Reading

1. I'm agree with the author that no remix, no culture. Every person has different background culture and experiences. Such as when artists create a new piece of art, some of them will go to the museum, gallery or exhibition to learn from previous works to get some ideas, some of them will inspire from the app called Pinterest (especially  for art teacher), and so on. This learning or inspiration process also the process learning from different artist's cultures. When make a new piece of art will add another culture because a person's idea or thinking always relate to his or her person culture influences or personal experiences. So if we don't remix things, it will not have the culture communicates. Because artists communicates always use the artworks they create.

2. I think it will have more opportunities and interesting outcomes by using techniques, such as Adobe and music remix apps. Because it's very quick to see what two pieces work together and make the change immediately. For example, use photoshop we can overlap the photos and combine photo together and also do the photo collage (cut the part you want to include). It's encourage people creatively to use different and variety photos and tools to remix a new piece. It's much more interesting.

3. Include Digital Devices in class teaching will engage more students enjoy the learn process. And also help them learn from variety communities useful to expand their knowledge in a short time. Because students can search online such as YouTube, blog, etc. to find the information or sources they want to learn. During the finding process, they also will learn a lot of things to see the different stories and combine these all together to create the new knowledge and idea they want to share.

Week 5: 5/2 Potential of Scanography

I think the potential of scanography is not only for fun, but also encourage students or people engage in making art and expressive their idea through scanner. During the working process, students or people will find amazing outcomes they never thought and brings a lot of surprise. Sometimes that surprise will inspire students or people more ideas. It's the continuously and creatively thinking process combine technique media and art to make artworks. It's also help students and people to solve the problem when using scanner that they need to decide what kind of outcomes they want to create and deal with where lights comes from, the color matching, and the whole composition. In other way, it also the process of aesthetic training.
