The Power of the Prompt Presented by Stephanie Pickens, Michael Bell, Debi West, Stephanie Wirt, & Karissa Ferrell
High School Art Teachers • Prompt based curriculum • Prompt based learning • Prompt based artmaking • All five of us will share how we develop prompt based learning in our individual classrooms.
Art is hard! By Stephanie Pickens • Give students prompts and teach them how to work without them • Prompts build creative thinking • Creative thinking builds confidence in artmaking
Prompt Techniques • Sketchbooks guided by a prompt • Evolve to journaling and self prompting by 2nd year • Main Curriculum includes prompt • Evolves to completely prompt based by third year • Artmaking skills and techniques • Day long and other short lessons are prompt based also
Prompt Based Curriculum • AMS: Artist, Medium, and Subject • Require students to make decisions based on this guide • Funnel creativity while building confidence • Student based curriculum guide editing • Allow students to edit curriculum in the beginning • Stick with guidelines, but allow personal expression • Properly develop rubrics for creative students • Make sure it is encouraging students who lack, yet challenges students who need it • Differentiate (as if you don’t already do that all day long!)
Skill and Technique Prompts • Short lessons • Allow options • Require decision making • Funnel the good • BE REAL-they want to hear it
Results • Higher AP Art Scores (if you are a numbers guru and care about that part) • Cross curricular connections • Strengthens college and career ready programs • Builds confidence in your kids • Makes for more individual thinkers • Encourages students to be independent
