This week was amazing for advancement in my research study! Students all have their first Visual Journal done and are progressing to have the next finished soon. Many students were able to finish framing their transparencies before the unfortunate realization that there were not enough and that neither the High School nor the Elementary seem to have anymore. So I’m in a bit of a pickle there but I’m sure I’ll think of something. I now have a large portion of my students beginning the planning stage of their Contemporary Personal Projects. I have been extremely successful with using my data from our baseline survey, bellringers, one on one conversations, and of course student work to connect students to artist’s, concepts, visual aspects that are inspirational and engaging to them! Several students who have made a connection to their contemporary art and have verbally expressed, Yes!, have now even began writing up their intended plan for implementation so that they can conceptually check for how implementation will unfold. Two students in particular are very involved with this process and have asked to come in extra just to progress ahead and are on the beginning stages of their implementation! I must get photos of this beginning before they progress further. Students and I have also received a plethora of praise, positivity, and curiosity for the display in our school commons of our Mixed Media Project! Sadly they will need to come off the windows so that students can photo document the layers and decide on their most visually significant layering. After that then students can complete the VoiceThread portion of the study.
