I really enjoyed today. The discussions were great. We talked about originality and shared examples of original ideas. I think Tyler's idea from 8.6 took the prize - a possible money maker in the future. We discussed plagiarism and how to avoid it by using MLA formatting.
Each student now has a sheet that outlines how to use MLA. Please keep it. Keep it. It will be of use moving forward into this new unit.
More videos have been completed and watched in 8.8. They all deserve Oscar's nominations for Best Plasticine Stop Motion Drama Under 30 Seconds. Tonight, I will complete two more soundtracks. Groups who finished their Stop Motion Plasticine Extravaganza investigated Pablo Picasso's Guernica. We explored some of its more secretive images. Our next class, we will review these images again, together. We will discuss the artwork and its effectiveness in dealing with the issue of war, and then create artworks of our own that deal with a current or historical issue of importance. Think abstract and collage.
Tomorrow our two guest speakers arrive.
And all is well.
