BP8_RILS_Final Project

Relevant and Innovative Learning Scenario

Brief Overview: In this project students will draw the human head as a pre-assessment in Sketchfu. They will then receive instruction on how to correctly draw the human head and then create a new drawing in sketchfu based off of those instructions that will serve as their post-assessment. Students will then self-critique and provide feedback.

Target Audience: High School Beginning level art students.

Materials: Computer access for SketchFU. (www.sketchfu.com)
Handout on How to draw the Human Face
Rubric and Self-Evaluation Rubric

Objectives: The Learner will be able to:
• Apply the creative process in the arts.
• Demonstrate connections between the arts and other disciplines: Math – Proportions. Biology – Anatomy. Technology – Sketchfu.
• Evaluate their process and end product.
• Compare and Discuss pre-assessment drawing and post-assessment drawing.

Procedure: * The Students will go to sketchfu.com and create an account.
• They will draw the human head.
• Students will then be given directions on how to correctly draw the human head using proportions.
• Student will create a second drawing practicing these directions.
• Students will then create a Thrid drawing using the correct proportions they just learned.
• Students will fill out a self-critique based off of the rubric.
• Students will present their before and after drawings by playing their recordings on sketchfu to the class as a group and they will critique each other using the Feldman Method of Criticism: Description, Analysis, Interpretation, Judgment.)

Web 2.0 tool: http://sketchfu.com/ Sketch Fu is a web 2.0 tools where you can draw and create artworks and share them!


3. Social Participation/Social Learning: The students will connect socially through SketchFU. They will create their pre-test and post-test assignment there and be able to view each other’s work and their step-by- step process.


4. Making Connections:
a) Students will make an attempt at a drawing and then they will learn the correct procedures for how to draw. After students will recreate their drawing with their new knowledge. They will have a before and after image to show that they made connections with the learning objectives.
b) Learning how to use web 2.0 tools and correct measurements/proportions in drawing is relevant to today’s art learner. They still need to learn elements and principles of design concepts, but need a more technological way to create.
c) They will be able to connect with their classmates drawings and with drawing from people all over the world because of SketchFU.

1. Create/Produce: The learner will create a pre-assessment drawing,practice drawing and a post assessment drawing in SketchFU.
2. Assessment: The post-assessment drawing will be graded off a simple rubric:

3. Reflection: a. The students will fill out a self-evaluation rubric on how well they think they accomplished the objectives in their post-assessment drawing and what they thought about the process.
b. The last question of the self-evaluation rubric will help the instructor evaluate and improve upon the project.
