  clarification---students dig into their
  projects.
• What is an element of art? How do we equate them
  to art? After two years of Visual Art?
• This is not real Art Mrs. Riney, this is a waste
  of time!

My Students were generally mystified by the
pre-test. They were quite challenged by the
concepts asked in the test although we use them
daily in our studio classroom setting. They did
have the general knowledge of color, some artists
and the basic qualities of impressionistic art.

Student Growth------What the Data Shows

Students learned aboutimpressionism

• What are the frequent subjects of these
  painters?
• The data indicates that my students know
  now!!!
• The reflective quality of water and light is
  so important.
• Yes, they really picked this concept up also
• All of the six delineated artists were easily
  identified, as well as the students being exposed
  to other artists works.
• Working throughout the project and choosing
  pictures, themes, and identifying elements of art
  within each painting is reflected within the data
  in the art element, and technique categories.

Technology and Visual Art

• Who needs a Print?
• Standard 1.0 Students perceive the world in
  artistic ways by refining their sensory
  perceptions of works of art. They utilize the
  vocabulary of the visual arts to express their
  observations.
• Historical and Cultural context
• Standard 3.0 Students describe and analyze the
  role and development of the visual arts in past
  and present cultures throughout the world noting
  human diversity as it relates to the visual arts
  and artists.
• Creative Expression
• Standard 2.0 Students apply artistic knowledge
  and skills in a variety of visual arts medial and
  technical processes to communicate meaning and
  intent through the creation of original artworks.
• Aesthetic Valuing
• 4.0 Students consider why people make art. They
  analyze and interpret art in order to derive
  meaning. They develop criteria to make informed
  judgments about the quality of their work and the
  work of others.

• Use a large monitor and the resources of the
  World Wide Web as a technological visual art
  tool. This technology is easy to use, and
  endless as a resource.
• Use of Powerpoint, digital cameras, scanners, to
  create portfolios and presentations.

18
My Personal Development

• Greatly enhanced computer skills to say the very
  least!!!!!
• Confidence to be creative with technology
• The ability to ask for help.
• Looking forward to the future ---taking what I
  have learned and build on it.
