Art Movement Presentation.

For another creativity lesson, we were out into groups to create a presentation about specific art style which we given before starting the task. For my presentation, we were given "pop art", which we had to research into and give a presentation on to the rest of the class. For our research into pop art, we decided to not just use the internet as a source of information, we also used books and videos to show find out information about this specific art style. We were left totally to our own devises on this task, as were just given the art style, no further information. Using the aid of PowerPoint, we were able to show our research simply, it also made our research more interesting to watch, as using PowerPoint meant we could show videos to get our research across to the audience. Our PowerPoint consisted of five different sections. The origin of pop art, the definition, how it's still used today, celebrities use for pop art and other sources that show pop art (videos, books, ect). Each section was researched through and looked into, which allowed us to not only share our new found research with the audience, but it also allowed us to learn new things about the art style for ourselves. As we were left to research the art style on our own, it allowed us to gain a sense of independence when working, even when working in a group. We had to order out our time management, what we were going to include in our presentation, who was showing what section, ect. I personally work a lot better interdependently, but working in a group for this task helped me a lot, as it allowed to me spread out the workload and it allowed me to learn skills of working collaboratively. It also gave me confidence when actually presenting my presentation, as working with others boosting my confidence when speaking in front of others. Personally, I don't do well speaking out loud, yet, during this task, I did well.
