Due:
Open the Artwork Analysis Guide Doc below to create a copy for yourself. We will be together in a Peardeck for some responses, but also in this google doc to individually track your thoughts and analysis.
Due:
Step 1 INITIAL POST: In one post, share both parts: (a) Choose a pattern that resonated with you. Briefly describe it. (b) Inquire about the pattern.
Example: There is a discrepancy where the author uses 3 triangles, then ends with a circle. Why would the author switch up triangles like that toward the end?
Step 2 FIRST RESPONSE: After reading several of your peers' posts, choose 1 question to respond to. At this point, no textual evidence is necessary.
Step 3 MORE RESPONSES: Now you can respond to other posts, or reply to other people's responses -- at least 2 more times.
*Some ground rules*
-Refrain from telling someone you "disagree." Instead, uses more nuanced phrases like, "I wonder if" or "Could it be that" or "Do you think." It makes the discussion more of a discussion, less of an argument.
-Don't treat the responses like an assignment. Type to each other in the spirit of exchanging ideas!
