This course examines how people learn, practice, and evaluate traditional and contemporary craft techniques. Social science theories of design, embodiment, apprenticeship learning, skill, labor, expertise, and tacit knowledge are used to explore distinctions and connections among art, craft, and science. We will also discuss the commoditization of craft into market goods, collectible art, and tourism industries. Ethnographic and historical case studies include textiles, glassblowing, quilting, cheese making, industrial design, home cooking, factory and laboratory work, CAD-CAM. In-class demonstrations and hands-on craft projects will be included.

Value is one of the seven basic building blocks of art along with Line, Form, Shape, Color, Space, and Texture. Through the lens of black and white photography, we look at how artists produce value scales and contrast, and how different kinds of lines change the way we perceive depth and space. Learn how different values can invoke different emotions in this video.

0.0 stars

In this final module of the Grade 1 curriculum, students bring together their learning from Module 1 through Module 5 to learn the most challenging Grade 1 standards and celebrate their progress. As the module opens, students grapple with comparative word problem types. Next, they extend their understanding of and skill with tens and ones to numbers to 100. Students also extend their learning from Module 4 to the numbers to 100 to add and subtract. At the start of the second half of Module 6, students are introduced to nickels and quarters, having already used pennies and dimes in the context of their work with numbers to 40 in Module 4. Students use their knowledge of tens and ones to explore decompositions of the values of coins. The module concludes with fun fluency festivities to celebrate a year's worth of learning.

Students' eyes are opened to the value of creative, expressive and succinct visual presentation of data, findings and concepts. Student pairs design, redesign and perform simple experiments to test the differences in thermal conductivity (heat flow) through different media (foil and thin steel). Then students create visual diagrams of their findings that can be understood by anyone with little background on the subject, applying their newly learned art vocabulary and concepts to clearly communicate their results. The principles of visual design include contrast, alignment, repetition and proximity; the elements of visual design include an awareness of the use of lines, color, texture, shape, size, value and space. If students already have data available from other experiments, have them jump right into the diagram creation and critique portions of the activity.

The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Positive organizational change doesn’t just happen It requires powerful strategy that can balance proven methodology with creative application Most enterprises want to sustain growth while also creating value, navigating complexity, and promoting innovation These aspirations have increased the demand for professional management consulting services A new article in Global Business and Organizational Excellence examines how strategic human resource development (HRD) consulting can transform performance metrics -- from productivity and quality to employee engagement and profitability Using a real-world example, the work highlights the concept of energizing, redesigning, and gelling (ERG) -- an alternative way to think about organizational development and change ERG helps leaders strategically align learning and development with other components of organizational design to execute an organization's overall goal Too many organizational change efforts fail....."

Ratios

Type of Unit: Concept

Prior Knowledge

Students should be able to:

Calculate with whole numbers up to 100 using all four operations.
Understand fraction notation and percents and translate among fractions, decimal numbers, and percents.
Interpret and use a number line.
Use tables to solve problems.
Use tape diagrams to solve problems.
Sketch and interpret graphs.
Write and interpret equations.

Lesson Flow

The first part of the unit begins with an exploration activity that focuses on a ratio as a way to compare the amount of egg and the amount of flour in a mixture. The context motivates a specific understanding of the use of, and need for, ratios as a way of making comparisons between quantities. Following this lesson, the usefulness of ratios in comparing quantities is developed in more detail, including a contrast to using subtraction to find differences. Students learn to interpret and express ratios as fractions, as decimal numbers, in a:b form, in words, and as data; they also learn to identify equivalent ratios.

The focus of the middle part of the unit is on the tools used to represent ratio relationships and on simplifying and comparing ratios. Students learn to use tape diagrams first, then double number lines, and finally ratio tables and graphs. As these tools are introduced, students use them in problem-solving contexts to solve ratio problems, including an investigation of glide ratios. Students are asked to make connections and distinctions among these forms of representation throughout these lessons. Students also choose a ratio project in this part of the unit (Lesson 8).

The third and last part of the unit covers understanding percents, including those greater than 100%.

Students have ample opportunities to check, deepen, and apply their understanding of ratios, including percents, with the selection of problems in the Gallery.

La descripción original en inglés también se proporciona a continuación.)

En este módulo final del plan de estudios de Grado 1, los estudiantes reúnen su aprendizaje del Módulo 1 al Módulo 5 para aprender los estándares de Grado 1 más desafiantes y celebrar su progreso. A medida que se abre el módulo, los estudiantes lidian con tipos de problemas de palabras comparativas. A continuación, extienden su comprensión y habilidad con decenas y números a 100. Los estudiantes también extienden su aprendizaje del módulo 4 a los números a 100 para sumar y restar. Al comienzo de la segunda mitad del módulo 6, los estudiantes se introducen en los monedas de montaña y cuartos, ya que ya han usado centavos y diez centavos en el contexto de su trabajo con los números a 40 en el módulo 4. Los estudiantes usan su conocimiento de decenas y otras para explorar las descomposiciones de los valores de las monedas. El módulo concluye con festividades divertidas de fluidez para celebrar un año de aprendizaje.
