Why "Go Gradeless" Video

8/16/2017

0 Comments

 
I'm sharing a video (or "learning object") I created over the summer in an online course here at OSU taught by Dr. Funk in the Art Administration, Education & Policy department.  I  have reservations about posting it, because it is VERY rough around the edges and WAY too long - BUT it's important for anyone undergoing the "going gradeless" journey to be transparent and vulnerable because we are after all modeling risk-taking for our students.  So while this video is sure to be redone before the next go of this class in the Spring, I'm nevertheless posting it for you all as more justification for this approach.  I have this posted online for my students on our class site and see it mostly as a tool for any students who are absent the first day or who might want more explanation of "going gradeless."  

What video or learning object could you make this year to introduce your methods (or madness?) to your students?

    I'll mostly be blogging about my experience teaching pre-service teachers about creativity and artmaking.  I teach a class called Art Curriculum & Concepts for Teachers for undergrads planning on becoming classroom teachers.  Among other things, I'm  attempting to "Go Gradeless" while experimenting with more effective approaches to teaching visual art integration. 

    ​I teach, make art, and write in Columbus, Ohio.  I'm currently a PhD student at the Ohio State University in the Arts Administration, Education & Policy Department.  I also have an MFA from Georgia State University.  On occasion, I put the bomp in the bomp bah bomp bah bomp.
