Art History this week. 09/09/2020

 Hello all,


Again it is going to be one of those bitsy weeks when some people are out for derived grade exam and some people are out for assessments and appointments.

With that in mind, we will start by adding what is on top for us in art history in the padlet. You can also add to our artist study gallery in padlet.

Then we will have a bit of a chat,  what do we feel confident about for the exams and what would we like to focus on (Keeping in mind the exam specifications and the media and processes specifications). Also if you are working towards an exam, can you think about revision techniques and activities that you find helpful.

We'll use the break out rooms for this and talk in small groups of three or so then report back to the class. This will help me to plan out the remainder of our time in art history in a way that is meaningful and useful for you.


We are going to have a go at a quick meanings response, using a set question and artworks (remember for the meanings exam you can also select your own renaissance artworks). Media and processes people could also have a go at this. You focus would be explaining how the meaning outlined in the question was created or reinforced through the media and techniques the artist used.

Make bullet points as though you were planning your exam response. (NB if you do this in your answer booklet and then run out of time to fully answer the question, the examiner can and will use your planning as evidence. This is a really good habit to be in). Then flesh out your answers more fully. Media and Processes people you could potentially weave the work that you do here into your written response for the assignment, this may make your life easier near the submission date.


We'll then do a bit of a close writing exercise looking at the Roman art in the renaissance. This is very similar to Florentine art. This is set so that you could answer it from a style, meanings, or media and processes point of view.

What is standing out to us at this stage?  How confident are we about what we need to do? Is there anything we really need to spend some more time on?


Then we'll have a look at some exam responses and media and processes examples. 

 I will quickly remind you about performance criteria for M & P and Style and Meanings before we begin. Maybe you will some notice some themes across the different criteria.

Media and Processes:

Media and Proceses Low E

Media and Processes High Merit

Style external:

Style E7 a past NetNZ student who kindly sent me photos of their script - What made the difference for this student?

Meanings external:

Meanings E7 a past NetNZ student

Meanings E7 NZQA example Why was this a low excellence?

Meanings  M5 NZQA example Why was this a low merit?


We'll post our thoughts here.

We'll have a quick korero about our thoughts


Before you go, please sum up what your focus will be on during the week and what you will have accomplished by this time next week.


Go well.

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...
