We're Going on an Artventure!
I am currently working on Artventure for my classroom, a supplementary, game-like classroom application that uses multiple facets to teach students in an engaging and motivational manner, practical personal and business skills currently underrepresented in many 21st century art classrooms. It uses a combination of immediate data-driven formative assessments through the monitoring of student growth in multiple areas via levels; continual summative assessment through an online portfolio which would track a student's growth over time; a student led, choice-based, project system intended to mimic the challenges of freelance and artistic professions in the "real world" through a job request board; a classroom economy, to teach financial responsibility and literacy, and social media integration to connect students their friends, parents, community, and the world.
