Skills to develop
Project Activities
Creating and Introducing Your Artwork
Students create artwork during their school and free time, then prepare a photo and a short description introducing their piece, explaining the cultural background, creative process, and what inspired them. These presentations will be shared alongside their artwork in the digital gallery.
Sharing Art Made by Our Hands
Students upload their handmade artworks or digital drawings to a shared Padlet board. Together with students from their partner class, they write short descriptions explaining the cultural background and creative process behind each piece. By comparing traditional and contemporary art created by hand across different cultures, students work collaboratively to build the foundation of their digital gallery.
Upload, Explore, and Compare: The Global Gallery
Students upload their hand images and captions to the shared digital gallery platform, then spend time exploring diverse students' artworks. Students work with their partner class to document contemporary art activities through photographs and stories. They explore how students in different parts of the world engage in contemporary art and discover the similarities and differences in art education across cultures.
Appreciating Cultural Artwork and Exchanging Feedback
Students view the artwork photos and stories shared by their partner class and reflect on the cultural meanings and creative ideas conveyed through each piece. They then exchange their thoughts and feedback with their partner class using a feedback form. Through this process, students gain experience in understanding and respecting different cultural perspectives while appreciating the creativity and cultural values expressed through art.
