Personal painting, relating the concepts of painting on water with problem solving in everyday life.
I really enjoyed the opening activity of sketching a problem and crumbling it to throw to the front of the room. I also thought the final group painting was effective about showing the beauty in collaboration. The hands-on activities were great.
The painting on the water was fantastic. It showed ways we needed to deal with the present and unpredictable future. Flexibility.
Watching Amy paint on water with her laptop camera was a great way to show us what we can expect to happen, and then the experience of making the individual artwork was exciting and beneficial toward learning process. I also loved the acronym BASIC! I also liked that we got up and changed tables to work with strangers.
A lesson that nothing is impossible as the word itself says IM possible. Motivation in believing, asking, solving, implementing, and capturing and cheering (BASIC).
Learning by trying out new things hands on is the best, but a lot can be learned by observation as well. The most simple methods and tools can create amazing products with limitless combinations (possibilities). Innovation and creativity – learning the difference between these two.
Making/encouraging us to think of things more graphically to express one.
The explanation of the ‘BASIC’ principles, and the symbol.
Each and every part of the program was very effective in improving my creative knowledge.
