Final Blog: For the Project and For Life

1. What was the most challenging aspect of this unit? Explain.
2. What worked well for you in the research project? What helped you learn?
3. What didn't work well for you in this research project? What would have made the project better?
4. Critique the overall human for in art research project. Should this project be taught in ninth grade Humanities English? Why or why not?

1. The most challenging aspect of this assignment was to research and find information on all of the paintings I had to compare and contrast to. It wasn't that hard because I would just look up Van Gogh and it would give me a little information on how he did his paintings.
2. What worked well for me was the fact that I enjoyed the painting I researched so I really got into it.
3. What didn't work for me was that I would've had less trouble researching an actual artist more than his/her paintings. It was irritating to look for all of the information on a painting alone.
4. The overall project was ok. I enjoyed doing the PowerPoint and learning about the artist and their paintings, but if you were to teach this project next year, the blog aspect has got to go. I found no point in doing this at all, whatsoever.
