PART 2

Goal

This assessment reveals and strengthens your unique intellect and explores recommended careers with emotional and multiple intelligences for you. Your assessment report will help you recognize your unique multiple intelligences, emotional intelligence, boost confidence levels, strengthen all of your intelligences, and set you on a career path in motion. Founded on Howard Gardners multiple intelligences theory, this assessment provides a more rounded view of your intelligence strengths by looking at the following types of intelligence: bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, naturalist, spatial and existential.

The objectives of this assessment will allow you to apply multiple intelligence results to careers, recognize your whole intellect, and build your self-esteem and self-knowledge.

Instructions

Review your Intelligences report. Download your report and save onto your computer (you will see a summary report in the right upper corner in which you save a PDF on your computer or print out your full report). There are 9 multiple intelligence types. What are your intelligence strengths? Is this accurate? What would you like to build more of? What are famous people who share your intelligence strengths? What are your Emotional Intelligence Trait strengths and challenges? Go to career match and research careers that work with your intelligence strengths.

Submission

What are your intelligences? What are your challenges and strengths? What are your Emotional Intelligence Traits? Is this report accurate? Please describe your strengths and famous people who have your same intelligence strengths. What are your challenges and areas you’d like to work on? What careers match your intelligence strengths? Write a short reflection summary description of your Multiple Intelligences in this Discussion post. Upload the PDF report along with your Discussion post as well.

• Click on “REPLY” to respond to these questions in your post of about 200 words.
• Write two responses to other student posts (respond to two different student posts). Each response post needs to be approximately 150 words. A response post can include similarities you noticed, suggestions that have helped you personally and/or questions you may have.
• See rubric for details.

PART 3-

Tessellations are a means of “tiling the plane”. They are decorative, repetitive works of art made in various mediums. M.C. Escher, the Dutch graphic designer was known for his extensive work with tessellations.

Using examples from Escher, and the weblinks provided to you in Helpful Tessellation Links, search for a tessellation in person to show the class.

Find a Tessellation:

Take a selfie with a tessellation you discover around town.For insurance purposes, an additional 2nd pic can be provided of the artwork. Photos that are found to be from online sources, or failure to follow instructions will receive point deductions. Don’t forget to tell us where the tessellation was discovered in your thread.

Tessellations can be discovered all over. For example, USD campus and Balboa Park have fountains that share some very similar tile work. Downtown La Jolla has some spread about while you walk on Girard. Home Depot sometimes has examples on display for kitchen and bathrooms. Many of your local Taco Shops probably have these decorating the establishment as well. Even textiles and fabrics are decorated in tessellations.

Be sure to embed images as instructed. Attached images that require downloading for viewing will suffer a loss of points.

Image Files

Make sure the files sizes are smaller than 1 meg each. Ideal file sizes are 100 – 200 kb. Space on canvas is limited.

Canvas will accept jpg, jpeg files best.

Mac & iPhone users – if your photos are HEIC files, then you must change/convert to the above. HEIC files do not properly upload into canvas.

Below is a quick how-to for embedding your images:

Discussion Questions:

Tell us why you chose the tessellation.

What is it about the tessellation that made an impression on you?

What exactly makes the pattern/decoration you chose a tessellation? Provide specific details. Discuss the principles of design and elements of art that are responsible for the visual impact created in the artwork.

Instructions:

Your Discussion experience will come in three parts:

Part 1: Take a selfie with a tessellation you discover around town. Be sure to take the necessary photos (as discussed in the page’s 3rd paragraph). Don’t forget to tell us where the tessellation was discovered in your thread. A photo with you holding a book or print out next to your face will not work!

Embed the photo to your thread. Avoid using huge file sizes, they may not upload into Canvas.

Part 2: Write a short essay that answers the above questions and provide comments about your own viewing experience. Additions to your thread resulting from any added research is fine. But remember to stay on topic and answer the questions.

Part 3: Respond to a minimum of 2 other student Threads.

PART 4-

Your Art Find is a video presentation. You will record yourselves talking/discussing a piece of art either on location or via voice over. Your presentation is worth 100 points.

Find The Art You Will Discuss

Find a public artwork that resides where all can see and is free to view and appreciate. Museums are also great places to discover an artwork for this project, but be aware of museum policies regarding recording while inside. Security will either tell you to stop, or escort you out. Art from your travels is fine, too. Just be sure that the photo you took of something while traveling is no older than a year or two.

Step 1: Find a piece of art (public art is great as it’s free!). The art can be two or three – dimensional.

Make sure the artwork is an original. Reproductions will not count, unfortunately.

Examples of reproductions include:

• A poster of a Van Gogh painting that hangs on your living room wall.
• Da Vinci’s “Last Supper” that hangs in your living room or local church. This artwork resides in Santa Maria della Grazie in Italy. Unless you’ve visited and have actual pics, then you can use/discuss/present. Hopefully this clears up reproductions.

Step 2: Record yourself talking about your chosen artwork.

• Discuss what is so special about the piece to you.
• Provide a visual analysis utilizing the Principles of Design and Elements of Art.
• Be sure to discuss the medium/material of the artwork.
• Use terminology that applies to the type of artwork you have chosen. It’s highly advisable that you research some terms.
• Provide some information about the artist, and the art movement/s they are known to have participated in.
• Don’t forget to tell me where the artwork is located.
• Be sure to include good shots of the artwork that you are discussing. If you need to grab some extra images from online sources, do so, but be sure to include pictures of your very own to avoid deductions.
• Remember that this is not a grade school style book report. Avoid making this entirely about where the artist was born, who they married, the name of their dog or cat, etc.
• Avoid plagiarizing art historical information. If you are using anyone else’s words, research, information, etc., you must cite the source.
• Just saying “according to so and so…” will help keep you out of trouble. Things look/sound suspicious when your presentation sounds like a dissertation for a PhD. I want to hear from you, not the AI generated information.

Step 3: Provide me with a link that will enable me to see your presentation. The length of your presentation should be a minimum of 45 seconds, although I’m sure going over will be no problem. Be sure to submit your link in Canvas. My advice would be to use Youtube, Google Drive or any other platform that stores video material to store your presentation.

For additional help in submitting your presentations through Canvas refer to this .

Be creative! Have Fun!

Some Advice:

• Avoid making your presentation a lengthy, super selfie. There have been presentations that show me 2 seconds of the art, and 1 and a half minutes of face shot. Remember, I need to see the art!
• Pretty faces are always nice, but I can’t grade your pretty face.
• Take a nice pic of the art and do a voice over.
• Avoid doing voice overs while your phone/device is pointed at your computer’s monitor. Using an image from your monitor gives me the impression that you didn’t really go forth and seek art.
• Remember to provide a live link to your video. Youtube works great, as do other apps, including Canvas Studio.
• Avoid PowerPoint presentations with audio attachments as they often are temperamental via audio files.
• Check your settings on Youtube and Google Drive. Some settings will block my ability to view your video.

PART 6-

Before beginning this Art Journal, be sure to view the supplement Web Link The Amazing Impact of Land Art.

This documentary looks into how we, as humans, are often attempting to beautify our natural surroundings in ways that reflect us. Culture, time, and materials are looked at, as many of these artworks span from different periods of human civilization.

Journal Questions:

Describe any cultural, visual, and/or scientific influences that pertain to 2 artworks featured in the film.

Discuss how relevant your chosen artworks are by telling us how you have experienced their themes/ideas personally.

Which artwork do you find harmonizes/beautifies nature the best? Explain why.

Helpful Tips:

What I’m looking for is critical thinking. If you provide a book report that regurgitates the facts from the film, you may get a max of 8.5 on the “original content”. As for “critical analysis”, that’s where critical thinking reigns supreme. Discuss how the themes or artworks are relevant today, or discuss elements of art/principles of design about your chosen works if all else fails. Cultural heritage plays a huge role, and this is not about when it was made but also why the artworks are still important today. Personal input/experience is great for this portion of the rubric.

Avoid going to Google for answers to the questions or supporting information. The journal experience is about you telling me your very own thoughts that pertain to the questions while viewing the documentary film.

Writing your Essay:

Write a short essay that answers the above criteria in no more than 300 words.

Going over the maximum word count will result in point deductions.

Quality is better than quantity. Be sure to stay on task.

Required Time Stamping

• You are required to time stamp the artworks and any citing from the film (at 12:16 when such and such is mentioned)
• Screenshots must also be included to accompany the artwork’s time stamping

Be sure to embed images as instructed. Attached images that require downloading for viewing will suffer a loss of points.

Image Files

Make sure the files sizes are smaller than 1 meg each. Ideal file sizes are 100 – 200 kb. Space on canvas is limited.

Below is a quick how-to for embedding your images:

The purpose of this exercise is to promote critical thinking. Be sure to provide detailed and supportive answers.

The best method for entering your essays into canvas is to cut and paste them after they have been through spell checking and translating. Please refrain from using/providing attachments.
