ivisual provides access not only to art appreciation & art practice curriculum documentation but also to a global visual arts educator social network. visual: the virtual arts classroom showcases the visual arts learning and investigations of pre-service teachers from Australian Catholic University as part of their training to become primary teachers. The curriculum documentation available on the site has been developed both by academics & by pre-service teachers, & is informed by state, national & international curriculum frameworks. Collaborative, participatory and focused resources are made available to visual arts educators around the world from which they can source ideas, share ideas and join in with a contemporary visual arts learning network.
How to use ivisual: the virtual visual arts classroom
Groups: Art appreciation & art practice curriculum documentation, audio-visual resources, useful links (tried & tested), photo galleries, video channels & more are organised by group. Each group is named after a point of interest, such as by artist (e.g. David Hockney), key concept (e.g. colour) or application (e.g. iPads). A 'How to use Groups on ivisual.edu.au' video tutorial is available here.
Pages: Each group is comprised of pages in which you will find relevant content. Each page starts with a letter which refers to the type of content: 'W' - workshop; 'R' - online resources; 'VT' - video tutorial.
iArtist: The iArtist section showcases the learning achievements of pre-service teachers from ACU in visual arts education, & provides access to curriculum documentation & resources.
Forums: Collaborative & participatory discussions by category.
Member interaction: Member interaction is encouraged through discussions, photo uploading, video uploading & resource sharing. If it's about the visual arts and you love it, please share it!
