      This game does do a good job at showing the importance of goats and it was fun and engaging. It would be a useful tool when discussing what is important to the livelihood of people in high poverty areas.

      This game reminded me a little bit of Oregon Trail which I played in grade school. The user is placed in a situation to make a set of decisions that simulate the reality of a person in a particular situation. By faming learning in this way the student might "own" some of the issues in a way that will cause them to remember the facts presented. I think a summary would be helpful so that the student could review the key understandings about poverty and hunger.

      The Posse might not be a perfect model of a learning and teaching material in the Web 2.0 pedagogy. However, by using a specific tool related to the Web 2.0, we can find what potentials this tool have, and further reconsider what educational materials based on the Web 2.0 pedagogy should look like.

      I posted this image of Toni Morrision to add to our group collection that is to reside in this Google doc. I think this photograph is so beautiful. I was not able to add this image to my "posse" collection. I assume this is because it is part of a special exhibit. The exhibit is called The Black List Project.

      For her family, this portrait might be a token of respect to the memory of her. At the same time, for the Egyption woman, it would be her other self prepared in advance for her future-death.

Global Citizenship in a Virtual World: Pros and Cons of Various Virtual Worlds - 0 views

      About the discussion in voice thread about teaching Microsoft Office programs, I agree with the statement in the voice thread. Teaching the programs should not be the goal. Besides, there are a lot of other alternative options that is free to use. Only teaching the commercial programs makes educators become like sales people for big corporation. Educators need to provide other options when, for example, ask students to turn in a paper using word processing program. Unfortunately, many schools don't provide the environment for using alternative programs. But fortunately, more and more educators are aware of this and are working on providing a free and open environment of software using. Web 2.0 technologies might serve as one of the alternative.

      I agree with you about wanting to make the most of this first life. I do wonder if we can separate these lives, or if the distinctions will become academic.

      Lindsay, my first publication was about chairs. I have been collecting images of chairs in various context for almost 20 years. Keifer-Boyd, K. (1992). Deep-seated culture: Understanding sitting. Journal of Social Theory in Art Education, 12, 73-99.
    • Lindsay DiDio
       
      Really that's Crazy. There is something about them that fascinates me. I had an assignment in a 3D art class to make a chair. I'll post a picture of it. The only guideline was that our professor had to be supported by it. Mine was Spaghetti and Meatballs!
    • Karen Keifer-Boyd
       
      I revisit chairs in my first chapter on mindsets in Engaging Visual Culture, my co-authored book with Jane Maitland-Gholon published by Davis Publications in 2007. One time I had 600 freshman engineer students draw chairs and then 300 out one side of the auditorium and 300 out the other side to join together by organizing themselves according to their chair drawings.There was more to it but that's how I started with a presentation on creativity.

Oekaki Central - 0 views

  •  
    This site is a central hub of the Oekaki Paint BBS, what I mentioned. I think it is still popular among youth. People are sharing their anime creation here. I was very passionate about this at some point. I think the creation of images based on fan animes allows people to creatively imagine a story or situation from the story they like. This allows the working through of something from the original story that attract people.
  •  
    I wonder if this practice of creation, "creative imagining" and "working through", has shifted what it means to be a "fan" in some cases. Fan anime seems more participatory that the kind of fan club I remember as a kid - which was limited to paying a fee and getting an envelope in the mail. (For the record, I never actually joined one!)

    My AED 303 classes used this site when they created iMovie projects. They used the music remixes licensed under Creative Commons, but didn't necessarily contribute to the remixes.

    Jen, I introduced this site briefly last semester to my 303 students also. I would like to make creative commons and remix a more intentional part of our video production assignments this semester. There is a lot of good media available on ccMixter.

      This sticky note process is so layered. If a person is a linear thinker Web 2.0 Pedagogy may look like craziness, but for those who see the world as complex and layered this form of communication is exceptional and colloboratively created. It reminds me of "Where's Waldo" as I search for the yellow speak bubbles.
  • Web 2.0 is a basically the trend in the use of World Wide Web technology and web design that aims to enhance creativity, information sharing, and, most notably, collaboration among users. These concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities and hosted services, such as social-networking sites, wikis, blogs.

      This can be a great way to bring in current political issues into the art classroom. It can allow students to study original propaganda posters from a historical stand point, while being critical and allowing them to remix and voice their own opinions and thoughts.
    • Mary Elizabeth Meier
       
      This type of remix really "talks back" to a dominant message that is being encoded in visual culture. I like the idea of remix as creative resistance. David Darts writes about this. He calls is Culture Jamming.
    • Lindsay DiDio
       
      Yeah MEM I've read that David Darts article, it was really insightful. I do really like the idea of this propaganda remix, and it can be combined with the photoshopping that was talked about in the articel as well.
    • Min Jung Lee
       
      I agree. I also think these images in this site to make students' thought ciriticized. this site is helpful for students to study visual culture with their own opinion.
    • Myoungsun Sohn
       
      I love that we can endlessly pursue something new in our classrooms as well as daily life.

    Oh.. this site has very strong messages. I think this site could be used to criticize visual images or social issues in art class.

  • Shakeouts typically mark the point at which an ascendant technology is ready to take its place at center stage. The pretenders are given the bum's rush, the real success stories show their strength, and there begins to be an understanding of what separates one from the other.

      Here is the definition of "meme" from Wikipedia. A meme (pronounced /miːm/) comprises a unit or element of cultural ideas, symbols or practices; such units or elements transmit from one mind to another through speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena. The etymology of the term relates to the Greek word mimema for mimic.[1] Memes act as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate and respond to selective pressures.[2]
    • Jennifer Motter
       
      I also found this definition for Internet meme. The term Internet meme (pronounced /miːm/) is a neologism used to describe a catchphrase or concept that spreads quickly from person to person via the Internet, much like an inside joke.[1] The term is a reference to the concept of memes, although this concept refers to a much broader category of cultural information.

      This reminds me of the theory behind relational art making and practice. There may not be a solid result of tangible piece of art in the end of the lesson, but the art exists in the gray matter.
    • Karen Keifer-Boyd
       
      The connect of Web 2.0 pedagogy to relational art pedagogy is apt that Lindsay noted, as well as to the artmaking process of collage that Elizabeth noted. However, relational pedagogy is more than process over product as its hallmark, but rather a process in which the participants in the artmaking or other art learning endeavor shape the direction(s) of that learning with each other. The teacher as facilitator sets of the possibility for this to happen but does not know in advance where the students will take their learning, which is relational to each other, the facilitation, the medium, and context. I agree with Lindsay that this relationality is similar to the potentials of Web 2.0 pedagogy.

    I used to refer to this site as a high school digital imaging teacher. My students loved it! They referenced the cybergenics and bestiality galleries, and then created their own creature by mixing images of mechanical and animal body parts in Photoshop.

    Yes! My elementary students and I experimented with remix, creating mixed up animals using http://switchzoo.com/zoo.htm We began with this Web-based activity and then extended the idea into their own artwork.
