1. Learning through Integration An Example of Art Learning Through an Integrative Approach from HKIEd By Eton KUNG

2. Module Structure Music / Sound Visual Arts / Visual Language Creative Movement 2 approaches for learning: Explore artistic elements across visual and musical art – similarities and differencessimilarities and differences Experiential learning of the 3 kinds: Basic theoretical understand / appreciation / improvisation exercises

3. Structure (cont.) Understanding of Art from philosophical perspective Discussion based Understanding of Art from “learning by experience” in 3 domains: Music / Sound Listening  drawing  elaboration Appreciation of music of different occasions / genres / Music with actions / Film music Visual Arts / Visual Language Visual art examples / video / film excerpts analysis / Installation Creative Movement Explore the possibilities of body/gestures as means for expression

4. Concepts concerned “ Symbolic” / “metaphoric” representations as key features in artistic expressions “Development of Ideas”

5. Uniqueness / personal view Through organization e.g.: repetition Contrast Transposition / mutation To achieve: Balance Rhythm / movement Emphasis / center of interest Unity Coherence Development of atmosphere

6. Expression of emotions/feelings  create aesthetically justified and lively work within a ‘make sense’ structure Leading to the issue of ‘evaluation’ How to ‘look at’/’look for’ a piece of ‘quality work’ Example of “Criteria for Consideration when Creating Art Project that Integrate the Use of Different Media”

7. Students’ Work Sharing Example 1 – Story-telling type Example 2 – Expressions for “concepts” in sections Example 3 – Between the two – Concepts expressed with a line of development

8. Issues Concerned 1. Learning of artistic elements not necessarily lead to the production of a piece of art work that illustrates “elements across different domains” 2. Not combination of “use” of different media 3. Development/structure is important for creating a work that impressed 4. Avoid unnecessary time/duration of performance for illustrating/conveying too less…. 5. Props / Installation: as simple as possible for expression – easy in school settings
