TWT+2012-Session+1

=TWT 2012 - Workshop 1: Using your iPad to Find your Creative Flow: Taking the Risk out of Risk Taking in the Lower School Art Studio= Cynthia Davies cdavies@townschool.org K-4 Art Specialist Julia Henderson jhenderson@townschool.org NK-8 Tech Integrator Town School Grades PK-4 Subject areas: All Level of experience recommended: Basic

// Use iPad apps to encourage students of all abilities to be more creative and collaborative. The Lower School Arts curriculum is perfect for a “What if... let's try!” approach to learning. More recursive and reflective than traditional instruction, this workshop promotes design thinking and collective problem finding, rather than a hurried process to produce a final piece. //

// The presenters will share their art students' work and offer insights into how you can easily make this an enriching and creative experience for your students also -- in art and other classes. If you have your own iPad, please bring it. A handful of iPads will be provided so you too can find your creative flow. //

Instructions for attendees: iPad very useful but not necessary, as we will provide a handful of iPads to use in this workshop. We will be using 3 apps: Brushes, Faces I Make, Wordfoto. If you can download these before the workshop, that would be great!
