A sample crossword puzzle I designed, this morning. 

A fun little game to help practice one’s fluency. If people like this enough...I can do a weekly crossword. 

Unfortunately, you won’t win anything: it’s just for fun. 

Level 1 just means I am using Latin alphabet.

04. Project Proposal: Wafaa Bilal

The artist I will be presenting for the mini-lesson is Wafaa Bilal. Bilal, born in 1966 Iraq, is known internationally for his online performative and interactive works provoking dialogue about international politics and international dynamics. He is also an Associate Arts Professor at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts.

His work is mostly centered around international politics and dynamics, specifically by the experience of fleeing his homeland and existing simultaneously in two worlds – his home in the “comfort zone” of the U.S. and his consciousness of the “conflict zone” in Iraq. The Internet is a big part of Bilal’s platform, and he also uses his own body as a medium. Bilal seeks to challenge the viewer out of their comfort zone and face them with realities that are more sensitive through his subject matter that centers war, conflict zones, and double standards within eastern and western culture. The fact that his work is interactive pushes this discomfort even further as it puts the viewer in the center of these political statements, which is different than the works we have seen in class so far, which mostly focused the interactivities on the viewer adding creative components to the work.

​

Presentation Outline

·      Bilal’s Approach to Interactivity (techniques, mediums, philosophy…)

·      The statements he makes through his interactive works

·      What is Bilal’s approach to interactivity?

·      What is he trying to communicate through his work?

·      Why does he choose to make interactive media art?

Minilesons

teacher has something to teach, an she gather students to teach it. The opic o the minilesson varies accoring to the needs of the class falls in to:

procedural--how to use materials

writer’s process--strategies to help them explore or organize a topic

qualities of good writing

editing skills

In my first grade placement, there was Instructional Focus Time. This was the time right before we began Writing. The teacher would write a paragraph on the board relevant to what we had been learning in other subjects such as science or social studies. As a class, they would proofread or fact check her paragraph. She used this time to remind students of specific writing techniques she wanted the class to focus on before they began writing their own papers. I think I would consider this a form of using the mini lesson. Unlike her, I may choose to not be as rigid about the topic that students write about, nor would I be as rigid about the part of the writing process that the student is addressing on a particular day.
