Student Work

Students had three options for creating their thumbnail sketches based on their technology teaching philosophy. 
  1. Create a gridded realism composition: cut out the squares and reorganize them (even flip the boxes).
  2. Create a series of automatic intuitive pieces: Set a timer for 1-5 minutes and work with a different color or medium each time. You must work with a minimum of three different mediums (with at least one dry and one wet).
  3. Experiment with basic shapes, colors, and textures using at least two principles of design: Balance, contrast, emphasis, movement, pattern, rhythm, unity
For their final product, they could either make one detailed drawing or a series of smaller drawings. They WERE NOT allowed to use any representational imagery, or anything directly derived from real life.

Instructor Example:

Student Examples:

Technology Teaching Philosophy: 

"All student should have access and proper instruction of all forms of media arts. I encouraged an abstract hand to signify lending a helping hand. Offering a variety of tools and blending signify different forms of media in my work."

Technology Teaching Philosophy: ​

"My image reflects more about how I feel about technology, I referenced colored and their meaning that move through the piece to show different feelings or stages. Green represents possessiveness, yellow means impatience, and orange stands for pessimism. All of these colors relate to how I don't like technology. Gray represents compromise, turquoise means clarity, purple stands for creativity, and brown means comfort. These are colors that represent my process when teaching technology to students."

Technology Teaching Philosophy: ​

"The style I used for my work is free, experimental, open, blended, calm, safe, and natural. The work itself explores the ideas of blending and separating technology in the classroom. While it's important to teach students how to use technology, it's also sometimes important to separate technology from art and not include it in every single element of the process."

Technology Teaching Philosophy: ​

"First, it's important to see what the materials and techniques of technology can do. Do not try to make it do what other things do. Then, explore how to make it do what you want. Students will not be able to explore outside the box with technology until they know the basics of how to work the material."

Technology Teaching Philosophy: ​

"I think technology is meant to be explored. I think we should utilize the tools we have at our disposal. While black indicates that there are still some unknowns working with technology, all the colors in my work represent the playfulness and creative potential of using technology to make art."

Technology Teaching Philosophy: ​

"Technology has its ups and downs. But I will teach it, and I want to always be incorporated. This piece explores the prospect of how digital art could be infused with traditional art forms."

Technology Teaching Philosophy: ​

"Teaching is unpredictable and whimsical. I always want to foster childlike imagination and exploration of materials when I teach technology in my classroom."

Technology Teaching Philosophy: ​

"I would like to be learning all the time. Technology changes rapidly and if you stop learning, you will be left behind. I am open to show what I've learned, and I'm willing to learn from my students. I plan to funnel what I learn into my teaching."

Technology Teaching Philosophy: ​

"While I am really unfamiliar with many components of technology in education, I think it will inevitably continue to be more pertinent. My piece reflects a certain anxiousness but also a merging of traditional with the new."
