Art appreciation and techniques/ART101/Session 1 Announcement
Dear ART 101 participants,
Welcome to Session 1. These instructions are for the Definitions, Artistic Roles and Visual Thinking learning pathway. If you have just joined us, you will find important introductory information at the Start here page of the course.
By now you should:
- be familiar with the layout of the art101 course site,
- have established your learning journal (and registered the URL if using a blog) and tested a microblog post using the WEnotes course feed. We harvest everyone's art101 contributions in this course feed.
- have completed the optional new OERu participant survey.
Work through the learning materials and activities of the first Definitions, Artistic Roles and Visual Thinking learning pathway which provides a basic understanding of how art is defined and the different ways it functions in societies and cultures.
Don't forget to post your questions using WENotes or the general course forum. Remember to include the url of the page where you are having problems.
Let's leverage the power of peer-learning by helping each other. If you know the answer to a question, help a friend by responding. Bear in mind that as an international course, your facilitators may be in a different time zone and could be sleeping when you post a question.
Most of all have fun!
