Action+Plan


 * 1. Authentic Assessment Activity:** By the conclusion of this workshop, I would like every student to be able to draw a human face with correct proportions and proper shading. Likeness to the artist is not important at this time.


 * 2. Presentation:** Students will view video tutorials where they can draw along with the video and practice their technique.


 * 3. Graphic Organizer:**

 * 4. Pre-Training:** For pre-training, students will complete an interactive activities based on facial proportions.

 * 1) **How will you include Mayer’s principle of active processing in your authentic assessment activity? What kind of product will your participants create to demonstrate their learning using multimedia technology?**  I will create a presentation which taps into the learner's prior knowlegde, while correcting myths they may have had about drawing faces. I will follow a logical progression form simple to more complex which uses the technology as a tool to break a complex task down into simple steps
 * 2) **What kind of multimedia presentation must you create to effectively present key concepts and skills to your participants (video, PowerPoint, podcast, screencast, interactive tutorial, or other)? How will you include Mayer’s principles of dual coding and limited capacity in your presentation?** I must create a presentation that has several planned pauses, where the student can watch and digest the material, then immediately apply it to a drawing. If all the information is given at once, the student will forget the information before they get to draw. The presentation must frequently reinforce learned concepts. I will use a combination of video, PowerPoint, and online tutorials.
 * 3) **What kind of graphic organizer would be best to give your participants to help facilitate learning in your workshop?** A visual diagram of the progression of the day's activities will help to facilitate learning.
 * 4) **What concepts in your presentation will require pre-training before you begin the workshop? How will you use multimedia to engage your learners during the pre-training phase?** I will need to address the idea of facial proportions in pre-training through the use of interactive online tutorials.
 * 5) **What equipment will you need to conduct your workshop (projector, laptops for each pair of participants, Internet connections, other)?** I will need laptops for each participant, an LCD projector,and Internet access. Students will also need pencils, drawing paper and erasers.
 * 6) **What online applications might you use?** I may use PowerPoint, iMovie, YouTube, Rubistar and a variety of websites.
 * 7) **How will your participants collaborate on their projects?** How will you group them to create authentic assessment in your workshop? I will pair up the participants in order to critique each others artwork based on the criteria set in the rubric. They will give each other feedback, then go back and edit/improve their drawings.
