Still Life on Toned Paper an iMovie with voice narration ( please find on CD-Rom file was too Large for wiki)

This lesson was created in Edt 658 Multimedia for my high school Art-I classes. I created a Keynote / Power Point and added my narrative in iMovie to introduce and outline the basic steps needed to complete a complex drawing project. This project is cumulation of many techniques and skills students have been developing since the beginning of the course. This lesson was created to help students understand the logical progression of steps and simplify the project, in an effort to decrease negative attitudes, perceived barriers and increase motivation and success. This movie was viewed twice during the project; first as an introduction to inform and motivate, later to provide a checklist for students to evaluate the inclusion of all parts of the lesson for the assessment rubric.
 * Rationale 1:**

Before viewing the movie students impression of the finished drawing was a ‘Wow’, but also beyond their ability. After viewing the movies’ simplified sequence of the drawing it became ‘do-able’. In my classroom, I only have one computer so I found it helpful to to record the iMovie onto a CD for student to play at request on a DVD player. This appealed to all student learning styles by providing the opportunity to view the movie multiple times. My observations demonstrated student’s liked the project and achieve greater success than last year when students did not view this tutorial. Before starting this Marian University master’s program I had not even completed a Power Point presentation. I am now able to create Power Points add my own digital photos and add a recorded narration.

KSD I developed this lesson and although I know it is a series of simple sequence steps, students look at the end result and think it looks too ‘cool’ to be easy. I developed this movie to simplify the project and increase success rates. The ease of replaying a movie at a students’ request it is much easier than repeating myself and alleviated some student barriers.
 * 7.K.3 The teacher knows when and how to adjust plans based on student responses and other contingencies. **

The unit combined techniques and drawing skills that students have been developing since the beginning of the course. The still life objects are simple spheres, cones, and cubes all objects students have practiced drawing with changing values to indicate surfaces. Student’s problem solved drawing this composition and creating the illusion of depth through overlapping, matching values, and proportion.
 * 7.S.1 As an individual and a member of a team, the teacher selects and creates learning experiences that are appropriate for curriculum goals, relevant to learners, and based upon principles of effective instruction (e.g. that activate students’ prior knowledge, anticipate preconceptions, encourage exploration and problem-solving, and build new skills on those previously acquired). **

Having taught this lesson before I felt a simple power point would benefit students by simplifying the project. I first created this presentation as a power point and it can be viewed as such. Later, I added the narrative, this affords me the option to let students view and listen without my presence and know they are receiving the same information every time. This proved to be especially helpful for students that have been absent on critical presentation days.
 * 7.D.2 The teacher believes that plans must always be open to adjustment and revision based on student needs and changing circumstances. **
