  1. Getting Creativewith Math & Graphic Design Presented by: Linda Lyons, Colorado State University

  2. Approaches • multimodalproblem solving ’patterning’noveltyemotionalconnects ideas • Role of Arts • engagingcuingstimuluscontextualattention training • Integrated Curriculum • * Math, Science • * Music, Visual Art, CTE • Uses multiple entry points, aka ‘windows into the room’ (Gardner, 1996)

  3. 1. Inquiry: promote deeper thinking, reflection, and refined understanding of concepts; • 2. Relevance and Application: real-world, contextual examples; • 3. Social and Personal: collaboration, interactive communication, teaming.

  4. Graphic Arts / Math • Ratios • Sequences • Graphing • Algebraic Equations • Patterns • Spatial relationships • Graphic Arts/ Science • Inquiry • Genetics • Atomic structures • Living systems • Depth of perception

  7. Competitive Event - Castle Ballistics • Students demonstrate ability to design and construct a ballistic device to hit a target within a 36’ x 36’ area. • Device may be trebuchet, ballista, or catapult. It must: • include sketch • include firing log, calibration table • include calculations of time, angle, distance, initial velocity • max size – 24” H x 24” W x 24” L • have launch load 80-90 grams (hacky sack) Colorado State Standards – Science – Grade 8 Observe, explain, and predict natural phenomena governed by Newton's laws of motion, acknowledging the limitations of their application to very small or very fast objects

  8. 1. How to incorporate CTE into your curriculum? • 2. What skills and competencies apply? • 3. Ways to implement a more integrated curriculum?
