Good morning sunshines!!

Picture
Dearest Students,

I have forsaken you all again in your time of need (namely coming up with inspiring, AWE-SOME projects that will transcend time and space and will leave all my future students feeling inadequate and essentially like husks of human beings.)

However, you're in GREAT hands! Sarita is the BOMB and will be here to support the creative process.

Here is the 
GOOGLE DOC FOLDER OF ALL 3 PROJECT DOCUMENTS (RUBRIC, PROPOSAL GUIDELINES, EXAMPLES and GUIDING QUESTIONS)

Here's whatcha gotta do today:

1. Take this quick survey for Anish Well's Stats project
​

2. Hone your Happiness and Meaning project idea(s).  You can choose if you want to start with the written part (PHILOSOPHY STATEMENT) or with the visual part BUT you must complete the proposal by Wednesday AND have your visual piece IDEA  critiqued by a classmate before you begin implementing it.  Follow these steps today...

Step 1:  Review the project proposal guidelines

Step 2:  Continue to brainstorm ideas IF needed
  • Once you have a few ideas for your visual piece or your philosophy on Happiness and Meaning, run them by a friend and get feedback on which idea they think is most authentic to you and most inspiring/cool

Step 3: Begin working on either your philosophy statement OR your project proposal

Step 4: Get your project idea critiqued using these critique guidelines:
CRITIQUE GUIDELINES
1. Get into groups of 3 (IDEALLY)
2. Explain your project to the critiquers
3. Talk about:
  • What is the main idea/message the artist seems to be trying to express in the piece? 
  • How does it connect to class concepts/texts? 
  • What's the best thing about this project?
  • What feedback does your group have for refinement? (How could it be more beautiful? How could it better represent the idea(s) you're trying to express? Does it need to be tied more clearly to one of the texts we read/watched, etc...?  Does it represent this person's authentic self?)
