My personal learning objectives for this course were:
I think these objectives were certainly met throughout the semester, but I would like to explore many areas of the course further. I connected most with the units from earlier on in the semester such as digital drawing, scanography, and stop motion. I think these areas of new media were a great bridge between my previously existing ideas on digital art and my first learning objective (do not be afraid of technology). As far as my second and third objectives (application), I found these earlier materials to be both personally exciting, and could also see them working well in an elementary and high school setting. In fact, I have become so interested in these topics that I chose to take point on the digital art lesson plans that need to be created for a curriculum I was writing in another class. I am very excited to get into a classroom and see how these materials are, or can be, applied.
While I absolutely plan on continuing to use the materials mentioned above, I would also like to further explore what we covered on circuitry, programming, and physical computing. I believe there is great potential in these materials that I have not yet been able to really uncover. These areas of the course were the most foreign to me, so I approached these materials on an introductory level. I was very interested in what some of my classmates were able to achieve with these materials in their final projects, and I hope to continue to explore them beyond the parameters of this course.
- Do not be afraid of technology
- Useful application in my art practice
- Useful application in the classroom
