Abstract

This assignment is for the online version of HUM108 that has not been launched yet. 

After learning about murals, the students are to demonstrate what they learned by creating their own mural. The mural must mimic the murals we learned about in the unit; it should be aesthetically pleasing, colorful, crowded and have a political, religious and/or personal message to impart. This assignment will allow students to demonstrate and solidify what they have learned by doing a kinesthetic and personally meaningful activity.

Interesting assignment, Sydney! I like how you posted a sample mural. Have you created a rubric to show how each area will be assessed?

I always like the opportunity to create art in any classroom, not just ART, and without having to be AN artist.

HI Sydney, What a creative assignment! Will the students write about the mural and the story behind it? I hope we can get them printed and displayed on campus. Olga

Great idea. Allows students to present their personal constellation of influence. How to assess it presents a challenge. Maybe looking at the lineage of thought and intellectual connections could reify the research side of the project.

How is the product that the online students create different from the ones your in-person students do?
