Displaying art is making the learning process visible. It is an organic part of the learning process. It is not an end to the process.
Leveraging technology in Art and Music
Technology was effectively leveraged to enhance students’ learning experiences in Art and Music. iPads were used as a versatile tool for research, creative expression, and documentation. In Art, students used iPads to explore visual references and created digital fruit portraits inspired by Giuseppe Arcimboldo using the PictoBoldo app. Padlet was used as a platform for students to share their works and reflect on one another’s ideas, fostering collaborative learning. In Music, iPads were also used for recording students’ performances, allowing them to self-assess, receive feedback, and track their progress. This thoughtful integration of technology enriched learning, promoted engagement, and empowered students to take ownership of their artistic and musical development.
