Today in Art History 03/06/20

Kia ora all,


Let's catch up first of all.

How are we going as people: one good thing, one tricky thing, how are we feeling about the theories now?

We'll catch up on the presentations I missed out at the end of last week due to time constraints.

Then we'll share the research made over the week into specific principles relating to the theories.
[I am sooo impressed with the rigour of the research so far]

Then looking at some exemplars:
(remember the NZQA ones are just a section of what the student would have submited)
Theories:
N, -NZQA exemplar. Scroll to the bottom for this one
M, -scroll down for this one. You can choose low or high m.
E - NetNZ student. Low excellence but it did enough to get there.

Texts
N -NZQA exemplar. Scroll to the bottom for this one
M - NZQA exemplar. Scroll for this one. You can choose low or high m
E- Mid E. NetNZ student (Note that this student's assignment was for Texts and Arguments which is different to the Theories and Texts that you will be asked to focus on)

Then make notes about the exemplar here. Why do you think it got the grade it did. What did they focus on. What could they do better?

Perhaps a bit of time knowledge building in the Padlet? What can you add to our group discussion? This is all about building our ideas up over time. It should be starting to look like a tree of ideas with lots of branches growing. What have you learnt over the week? Add this. What can you add to someone else's posts. Add your ideas there. Do you have new questions. Add these. Could you answer someone else's question? Add your ideas there.

Our next step will be to research art works and how theories impact on/relate to them. I have a list of suggested artworks here. You could also choose your own, but you would need to justify how they relate to the theory. Much like the values research, you will research at least two art works. For each artwork you will research two principles from a theory and how they have impacted on or relate to the art work. We'll make a start today and then share back our findings about an art work and a principle that relates to it next Wednesday.

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...

Our Google Meet 21/02/19

21/02/19 Admin: Have we got set up with our netnz address yet? Here is  a guide for how to do it  and here is a  video  I recorded of setting up my netnz to forward to my regular mailbox, so I don't have to keep track of 2 emails. Sorry I was figuring out how to do it while I was recording, so please be patient I did get there in the end. You will need the netnz address primarily to access the Google+ community (Google will make it so that you can only access a community if you are from the same education domain as the owner e.g. netnz). How I'm organising my blog. As a research team which area of art history do we want to focus on? We need to pick whether we want to focus on Late Renaissance or Early Modernism as a group. We'll discuss this as a class. Getting to know each other.  Review  the work that we've done so far. Where in the world. Explain your location to the class and why you identify ...

Our Google Meet this week.

I would like to start using screencastify to record our google meets so that we can refer back to discussion if that is ok with you. I would keep them in a google drive folder that is accessible just to us. Today's recording in particular would be shared with my HoD who appraises my teaching each year. Today will be a bit admin-y as there is a bit to cover in terms of what we need to be working towards NCEA wise. Starting with what's on top for us . What is happening in our worlds and where we are at with our research into the values.  Please share some interesting discoveries and how they have helped your understanding of the big picture.  What has been helpful for you (on the website, on KF or some other sources?  (NB - when you click on the link, scroll down to the red padlet). We will then spend a bit of time adding to Knowledge Forum . This could be adding research you have been  doing as a note. Or new questions that have come up after doing research...
