Our VC today - 29/04

Checking in with you as humans

-one good thing
-one tricky thing


Thinking about our thinking:

In our Google Community post about these things:
What discoveries have you made over the last few weeks about the renaissance?
What is going really well for you in your research?What is a bit tricky in terms of the research?What are our next steps.
Do we all have a big question formulated? 
- Who needs a bit of feedback on this or help to choose/come up with a big question?

Sharing time, research. 

 - We'll share what we found out during the week.

Knowledge Forum > developing our ideas further. 

What do we need to find more about. Make posts about this e.g. 'I need to understand ...', 'I need to find out more about'. Remember that you can talk to each other in Knowledge Forum. Perhaps you have a link to the perfect source, for something someone else is struggling with. Maybe you can make a comment to help someone when they have come to a dead end?
Let's do a bit of a brainstorm about values and the human form - this is a common thread in most of the artworks we are examining - I think it would be worth expanding upon.

Art History VC 21/10/20

 As always we will catch up with how we are and what is on top for us We'll have a go with Socrative . I've got a quiz set up about meanings. Let me know how you like it as a revision tool. We will have a chat about our strong and weak points, which artists do we need to look at as a class? Which meanings do we need to look at more closely, now that we have researched some of the Mannerists and Venetians? Then we'll   continue with our group research to cover off the artists and meanings we need to look at - we'll show and tell what we've found out, then select a new artist with the plan of sharing back to the class next week. You should research through the lens of the exams you are preparing for (What are the key meanings? How do you know? What influenced those meanings?) Here is a bit of a presentation looking at Mannerism and Venetian painting . Keep in mind that not all the artists mentioned here are in NZQA's Late Renaissance prescription. Here is a contex...

Our VC 05/08

As you come into the call can you please sign in then add to: What is on top? KF - externals style KF - externals meanings KF - externals context We will keep coming back to these to build up our knowledge base for externals. This is your chance to build up some resources that you can draw upon if you are surprised by the exam question. We will focus on building on our ideas to ask 'why' and 'how', as this will support M and E level thinking. Knowledge Building is a good approach for this as it much easier to ask these questions in the context of a conversation. Madison and Hazel's questions are a really good example of this.  By special request, we will play a Kahoot or two. Let me know which revision tools you find helpful and I can plan around this. Building on our Mannerist research . What kind of questions do we have about Mannerism? Writing a meanings response  - We will have a go at planning out a meanings response. During the week leading ...

Art History VC 23/09/20

 Kia ora all, How are we all? -to some of you For those of you who are working on the internal and not sitting the art history external/s this week is a natural ending point to your course with the assignment being due on Friday. My grand plan is to get marking sorted this weekend so that my moderator has all of the holidays to look at your work. All going well I should have marks back to you in week one of term four. Online courses can often have an abrupt ending when students go on study leave or complete their internal programme ... I wanted to give people a chance to reflect on how they've grown as a learner and the skills or mindsets they'll take with them. Add your reflection here  Maybe do this as you join the call so that you have something to do as everyone else is connecting. We'll then have a bit of meta chat about this. I'm going to poll you on how you are feeling about your work in art history (assignment or externals). I'll then open up the floor for q...
