  1. Designing. . .in the round CTAP 295 Teaching with Technology by Karen Nichols. tahoe4911@earthlink.net Art Department Chair Reseda High School, Reseda, CA This is a lesson inCOLORTHEORYfor high school visual art curriculum which addresses several California state standards for the Visual Arts.

  2. Expectations At the beginning of this project, I expected to: become more comfortable on the Internet. create a web site. prepare a standards-based lesson. learn how to put a lesson on the Internet.

  3. Outcomes I learned the following: to navigate on the Internet to create a web page using Netscape Composer to link pages and projects to scan and incorporate photos to do graphing with Excel to do a Power Point presentation

  4. SuccessesThis project had many successes, as far as student learning is concerned. The following were thePROJECT GOALS: • To make learning fun! • Now it can be made more palatable by opening the classroom door and allowing students to explore the world through technology…over the Internet. • To engage students in learning. • Its multi-faceted qualities make this particular lesson interesting to most students.

  5. More Project Goals • To address educational standards. • This gives structure and depth to lessons. • To address different learning modalities. • Visual and kinesthetic aspects have been included.

  6. Description of Lesson • Students used MATH • to divide a circle into 12 equal parts using a compass. • to divide a circle into thirds, concentrically. • Students used SCIENCE • to study color perception. • To study the qualities of color.

  7. Description of Lesson Continued • Students used LANGUAGE ARTS • by learning art vocabulary, such as: primary,secondary,tertiary,intermediate,complementary, analogous • by learning terms from geometry, such as: diameter,radius,circumference,fractions (1/6, 1/12, ½),concentric • Students used SOCIAL SCIENCES • in historical contexts • mandalas • medieval/gothic cathedrals • in geographical contexts • Chartres, France • Nepal

  9. SHORTCOMINGS • need more computers in the classroom • students lack computer skills These are probably obvious and universal problems inherent with technology in the classroom; therefore, they should not even be considered “shortcomings” at this time in history. Time will remedy the situation.

  10. Summary This project has made me more aware of the possibilities for using technology in the classroom. The computer is a powerful tool, but the Internet is an exciting outreach medium. It makes the teacher available at all times in that the assignment is always available to a student or to a parent who wishes to assist their child or just look in on what is happening in the classroom.
