Blog Post 13

What did I leave out?


I recently decided that I will be applying grad school in the Fall of 2018. I hope to attend  South Alabama's graduate program for Art Education. With this new interest I was curious to know how could we use technology in the field of art such as Visual Art, Theater, Dance and Music. With this I started my research and came up with 4 different ways to use technology in the field of art.

Technology and Art
Katherine Svoboda explains to us how she uses technology in  her art class with her older students. Katherine states that technology and at go hand and hand. Mrs. Katherine uses a website called artsonia for her students to showcase their work. Artsonia is names the worlds largest children's museum. It allows students around the nation to sale and view works of art by students. 

Claymation is also a great way to incorporate technology in the art classroom. Claymation is when students design a short movies with pictures of clay figures. I would also suggest that students publish their work on YouTube as we have done this semester in EDM 310. 

Theater
 Theater and technology are also very easy to relate. Many students love to publish their work and will work harder if they know they have an audience. In foundations to Reading we learned that Readers Theater is a great way for students to understand the text. I feel like this would be a great opportunity to let technology take it to the next level. Possibly have students record a short video of them involved in readers theater to publish on their blog. This also lets students view and listen to their readings skills directly.

Dance
Dance can be included in every subject. Any chance students get to release some built up energy is great.  I found an amazing source for teachers to learn about including dance in the classroom. Teaching Channel


Music and Technology 
Mrs Kelly Riley demonstrates to us the many ways she uses technology in her music classroom through her blog. She supplies many demonstrates lesson plans on technology games for students.
with music she also has online music
