The IAEA’s Northeast Council partnered with Freestyle Photographic Supply on Wednesday night, September 24th to offer area teachers a free workshop at Niles West High School. Freestyle Photo provided teachers with some truly great information on how to take ordinary photographs and make them extraordinary. Participants were also provided with a free gift for attending. The evening concluded with a presentation by Chris Sykora on “Social Constructivism“. Thanks to all our attendees for making the evening a success!.The Northeast Council is planning to bring Freestyle back this coming Spring. In this next workshop, teachers will spend the day with two objectives in mind: (1) learning how to properly select the right paper for printing and (2) printing their own personal photos using a variety of specially selected papers and printers. Date and time TBD.

Using the Next Generation Visual Arts Standards
Join us for an overview of the new standards focusing on how Enduring Understandings, Essential Questions and grade-by-grade learning progressions paint a clear picture for students, teachers, administrators, parents and communities of what is gained through high quality arts education. Take a guided tour of the newly developed Model Cornerstone Assessments to explore important shifts in observing and documenting learning outcomes. Participants will collaboratively consider how the new standards suggest indicators of students’ knowledge and skills and then strategize as to how such indicators can become powerful evidence of student learning and authentic measures of teacher effectiveness. Presented by Olivia Gude with Anne Becker. Continue reading “NEW Art Standards Workshop”
