Slides for Dr. Wesley Fryer's presentation in Canfield, Ohio, on October 18, 2013. The session description was: Draw a picture or take a picture, and then record your voice with a website or app which shares your recording with your image. Narrated Art Projects provide excellent opportunities to practice meta-cognition, use nonlinguistic representation to boost student achievement, and improve oral communication skills. In this workshop we’ll view and discuss examples of student-created narrated art, and also create examples together in the session. Websites like AudioBoo and SoundCloud offer cloud-based audio recording and sharing using free smartphone applications as well as browser-based interfaces. Apps like ShowMe and Draw & Tell for iPad can streamline the creation and sharing of narrated art. Learn how narrated art projects can become important elements in students’ digital portfolios.

provide assessment choices

6. ...when assigning a project, teachers look for
mastery of content and allow students to take
ownership of how they present that content. A
teacher may ask students to demonstrate their
knowledge of photosynthesis, but rather than
give them a specific means of doing so, will allow
the students to use any available resources to do
so. This not only gets the students innovating
more as they navigate through this task, but
more importantly makes each student’s
experience unique and gives them ownership
over the product they produce. Some students
may make posters, some a voicethread, some a
powerpoint or prezi, but this should be no
problem for the educator as they are assessing
on mastery learning objectives and not actual
means of presenting them.
