For the final in EDT370, Technology in Education, i plan to focus on an 8th grade Art lesson. The topic of exploration is going to be a still life lesson which incorporates line, value, shading, and rendering. With the capability of the eighth grade level i would not include color yet because i would want to see the value range from white to black on the paper. in this lesson shadows and lighting will be especially important to represent.
The general age in an eighth grade class would be 14 or 15. Also i want to stay living in Grand Rapids so the demographic of these students could be mostly Black, or Hispanic with one or two Whites in each class. this demographic would be mostly low income house holds with possibley more than one child to be responsible for. these children would be from broken families and possible be taken care of by grandparents. This is important to notice because, not that i don't love my grandparents, but if they would have brought me up as a child i would be way behind in my comprehension of technology, culture, and ultimately the world.
These students would be interested in socially fitting in with their peers in looks, gender, sex. influences like sex, drugs, and alcohol are also on students minds at this age. their attitudes could be moody, or shy. their ability to think abstract thoughts is present at this age as well. that being said keeping them interested and motivated on the subject at hand will have to be considered a great deal.
