So, Who am I?(Modeling the tools straight away)

Originally from Wellington, I used to teacher at Worser Bay School.

I moved to Auckland to work at Learning Network NZ & then to the University.

Now I work at Globo, going from school to school assisting teachers with Thinking Skills

and eLearning.

I now live ½ of my time on an island and ½ of my time in the city – I’m crazy about fishing.

Michael went for a basket and missed.

It was me who saved the game with my rebound and into the basket!

Training was tough, but I had to push on.

I was selected for the team! I was so excited.

Unit Moves…

1. Show Da Vinci's 'Mona Lisa' to the class. Discuss the work, who knows it? Where have they seen it? Is this painting famous? Why?

2. Show Marcel Duchamp's version of the Mona Lisa with a moustache and beard. Discuss this image, how is it different from the first 'Mona Lisa'? What do you think the artist Duchamp was trying to show by putting facial hair on this famous painting?

3. Explain that Duchamp was a member of an art movement called Dada. Discuss the spirit of Dada, as ant-art, destructive, humorous, challenging to traditional ideas of 'high art', and show examples.

4. Tell children they are going to make their own piece of Dada and model the process:

Choose a painting by a famous artist from one of the art books you have gathered. Scan the image into the computer. Insert the image into a drawing or painting program and use the toolbox to 'dadify' it.

DadaismDadaism began in 1916 in Zurich and was a direct result of revulsion and rebellion against the horrors of World War I.

Dada is a French word that when translated means hobby horse.

With Dadaism, usual, everyday objects were altered ever so slightly and called "art". Prime example being Marcel Duchamp's "Fountain" which was actually a urinal that he signed "R. Mutt". The idea here was that art really meant nothing and had no purpose whatsoever. The artists involved were essentially ridiculing those who came before them. Rebels you might say.

Dada art ranged from nonsense poetry to physical attacks on traditional art.

Your Professional Learning Requests

This is what you said in the Sept 2010 survey...

Teacher PL Requests

Use MindMeister to cluster these ideas so we can make a plan together.

Creating BlogsCheck the rules – if students have to be over 13yrs, then best if the teacher sets up the blogs.

Blogspot seems to be the easiest, you need a gmail account to set-up.

Change the permissions & settings so that you have NZ time & can monitor the posts.

Learn how to embed videos, audio, interactive activities etc.

You can link blogs so that others can comment on posts.

Embedding Files

Make sure you have the right accounts set-up – Youtube, TeacherTube, Scribd, SlideShare, Blabberize, Vimeo etc.

Upload your files to the appropriate account.

Copy the embed code – always look for embed.

Find the HTML or relevant place to paste the embed code, then you are done!
