Average rating:5.0Number of reviews:(38)
In this 4-week art and coding class, learners will study cultural masks from around the world. Then they'll design and animate their own digital masks by coding in a computer programming language called p5.js (JavaScript for artists).
Class experience
===================== WHAT WE'LL CREATE ===================== In this 4-week class, learners will study cultural masks around the world. They'll investigate what the masks are used for, who wears them, when and why they are worn, that masks can reveal as well as hide, and what stories they tell. Learners will also reflect on simple design principles that recur in many masks. While they're studying masks, learners will also explore code in p5.js (JavaScript for artists). They'll create some...
* Learn about the purposes and structures of cultural masks from Africa, Inuit indigenous cultures, and Pacific Islanders. * Learn about design principles that recur across masks, including symmetry, texture, color, and pattern. * In p5.js JavaScript, learn about x- and y-coordinates and how they control the placement of shapes and images on screen. * In p5.js JavaScript, learn: - - - how to draw ellipses, rectangles, almond-shapes, and curved lines - - - add color to the outline or interior of shapes - - - create and modify variables - - - use variables to change the dimensions and position of shapes on screen - - - show images - - - restrict the view of images so that they appear inside shapes like heads, eyes, or mouths.
15 years of experience teaching JavaScript, Python, Scratch, web development, robotics, and artbotics to students from 8 - 15 years old in private, public, and after-school settings. Two masters degrees in education – from Harvard Graduate School of Education with a focus on technology and from Lesley University in mathematics education. And, most of all, great love, patience, and respect for the many different ways that students learn and the different gifts they each bring to the classroom!
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Students will create a login and join a coding group at Open Processing, where their class will write code and see the animations. Student logins at Open Processing include many safety features. For example, no personal information is collected, student profiles and projects are visible only to the teacher and classmates, and students are not allowed to comment or annotate projects outside their class. For a full description of these protections, see "Restricted Student Accounts" at https://intercom.help/openprocessing/en/articles/5228489-student-account-types. This free code editor, funded by the Processing Foundation, works on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chromebook computers but isn't appropriate for iPads or phones.
