Day 2 (4/17/20)
I have to admit that when I first heard that the school was
shutting down and we were going to start teaching students remotely I went into
a bit of a panic. Although I have never been a stranger to technology I didn’t
really feel prepared to start teaching over the internet. “Google Classroom”
was something I was remotely aware of but had never really used it. Being very
camera shy, the thought of video conferencing and making videos still sends
shivers down my spine. Add to that the fact that I have four classes of
ceramics this semester seemed to be a recipe for disaster. The possibility of
sending clay home with the students in so little time was out of the question. In light of the fact that we are not going
back this year I am glad I didn’t try. I started working on learning all the
programs I would need to make this happen. It came to me that perhaps this
would be an opportunity to explore some areas that I had always wanted to but hadn’t
had the chance. The first one, for obvious reasons, was Land or
Environmental Art. I started by having my Ceramics 2 class research and write
on the art of Andy Goldsworthy and other Land Artists. After writing a critique
on the Land Art Piece of their choosing they had to develop their own Land Art.
It is a small class so I thought it would be a good pilot group. I wasn’t
disappointed and will probably use it for other classes in the future.
