Teaching activities and resources

I thought I’d share some activities and resources that I’ve developed or found as I prepare to teach remotely due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Please keep in mind that those I developed were almost all created over a single day–so be kind 😉

For my world art history class (15th century to the present):

• • The Carters’ “Apes**t” and world art history (based on my 5-day activity discussed here) for 2 different online days
    • Application Activity for Carters, Early Modern, & Neoclassicism
    • Application Activity for Modern-Contemp-Carters
  • Have your students make a conceptual or performance artwork that responds to covid-19.
    • APP ACT-Conceptual and Performance art
  • Activity about Art of the Pacific at LACMA and The Met
    • APP ACT-LACMA&Met Pacific Art
  • Activity about Western and Central African art in the 19th and 20th century and creating a museum tour*
    • APP ACT-African art tour
  • Activity about museum acquisitions and Japanese Edo period art
    • APP ACT-Museum Acquisition Japan
  • Activity about creating a museum tour of Plains and Northwest Coastal art*
    • APP ACT-Native American Tour
  • Activity about students researching surrealism outside Europe*
    • APP ACT-Surrealism and Latin America

Activities marked with an asterisk (*) were inspired by an activity created by Dr. Erin Thompson (John Jay College, who has an OER for her ART 101 class)

• I recommend checking out her early photography and impressionism activities–I plan to use those!
