Looking and Responding at Art

Target Group: All Art Teachers
Course Aims: A series of Evening Workshops will look at improving teachers’ skills in Using Lower Order and Higher Order Questioning so that they can better develop a sense of art and design appreciation, an understanding of art and design history and familiarise students with the use of terminology from first year. There will be an emphasis on students’ enjoyment of the work and confidence in expressing opinions. There are many ways of approaching looking and responding. This session will explore these five interesting entry points or windows to a piece of work: The Aesthetic Window; The Narrative Window; The Logical/Quantitative Window; The Foundational Window and The Experiential Window.
