Blog becomes Vlog?

Last week at our Holiday Staff Lunch I had a long conversation with photography teacher, Keven Peck, about the blogging he has implemented in his class.  We have some overlapping students, and in conversation with some of them I discovered how their perception is that blogging in Drawing&Painting is more complicated than in Photography.  What?!?  Why is this I ask?  In photo, they write a longer reflection piece, but they only post one picture - the picture they have created to call their artwork.  In D/P, they post 4 pictures - sketch, 2 from the process, and finished art.  If these pictures are more complicated, would it, could it be more fun to create a video of the piece at its' various stages and verbally give a reflection rather than writing it???  We must try this!  And so the blog beat goes on....

Class Critique for Dec. 8th

I can't believe it!!!  This will be our last class critique for 1st semester!  Unless the class wants to be sneaky and do another one after winter break.  I will ask... we will see.

What is our next step to blogging?

We have a blog.
We have a structure.
Every blog post has one picture.
Every blog post has one response one reflection question.
Every work day has chrome books reserved.
Today we agreed that setting up a bin to 'turn in' the grading rubric prior to grading would be helpful.  This will act as a signal that a project is ready to grade.
