Unit 15: Embrace the shake
This unit explores the concept of a limitation and how it can aid students in thinking creatively. After watching Phil Hansen's Ted Talk Embrace the Shake, students will create a list of possible limitations and create with those limitations over a number of studio days.
I have attached only one studio day below. You can use the same lesson for multiple days to extend this experience as long as you have time for. Remember to allow time at the end of the grading period for a passion project.
VA:Cr1.1.HSI Use multiple approaches to begin creative endeavors.
VA:Cr1.2.HSI Shape an artistic investigation of an aspect of present-day life using a contemporary practice of art or design.
VA:Cr2.1.HSI Engage in making a work of art or design without having a preconceived plan.
