Week 6 Reflection

 

So I really love this weeks activity it made me feel like a kid. I think I should have planned ahead because I had no idea what to make so I just make little snowman looking people with faces and cereal hats. It took me quite a while to figure out what to make, how to make it and to actually put it all together took me a majority of the class. 
I think with help kids in some of their fine motor skills while putting together their food art. Using those fine motor skills to put icing on the food, draw faces or just small details into their own art. I think it can also help children with critical thinking. Kids need to think about what they want to build and how to do it; this may involve trial and error to figure out what works best for their vision. 

You can incorporate this in so many different subjects. One that I think is super cute is if you give kids like circular objects ,like fruits or crackers, then the students can color them and make them look like different planets so it would be a fun way to include this into science. Another one is when kids are older and learning about historical figured students can try to craft out what they think a specific person looks like with food. 

I put a picture of what piece of art caught my attention the most. I think this was simple but it was so cool to me. I was a big reader as a kid and still enjoy it now so I think that is partially the reason why this is my favorite that I saw. The art piece again is simple so the only objects the artist used was a book and some ribbon throughout the book.

Week 10 reflection

I really enjoyed this assignment as I have never used any sort of AI before hand. This week in class really opened my eyes to a whole different world in not just education but this can be used everywhere. I have heard of AI and kind of knew what it was but I never knew any specific websites or anything like that. I really never even heard of a drawing AI simulator like Dall.e2. This class was super interesting to me and I really liked the assignment we did along with it; it helped bring a clearer understanding to me about AI and I think it helped a lot of other students.   I really liked using AI to create a story because it is super fast and I think in my personal experience the stories aren't terrible. But I think if it wasn't just like a short, small thing we were doing I would rather write my own so I have creative control over the whole thing. With AI I can change it if I want little so it's more how I envisioned it but it still is not the same as writing it myself an...

Week 12 Reflection

 For week 12 I learned about creative drama and how it can be used in the classroom. In class we learned about the different drama techniques and how they can be used in the class; we also got a demonstration in class when Dr.Won read a book and used creative drama. I think 'person in a mess' is my favorite way to engage students because it is fun for the kinds and encourages them to use critical thinking or how to solve the problem.  I think using drama techniques as a teaching tool would be such a creative and cool way to engage the children. I think it gives kids a new way to learn, it can help them stay focus and may even help them remember what we are talking about during class.  Like I wrote right above I think it can affect children's learning in a positive way. I think this fun and different way of learning can keep students engaged longer and have them pay attention more. With students paying attention more I think this way of learning may help students retain in...
