Theses and Dissertations. 1063. https://ir.library.illinoisstate.edu/etd/1063 This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by ISU ReD: Research and eData. It has been accepted for inclusion in Theses and Dissertations by an authorized administrator of ISU ReD: Research and eData. For more information, please contact [email protected]. DEVELOPING AN ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK: MEASURING DIGITAL LITERACY OF INTERIOR DESIGN STUDENTS IN A DIGITAL DRAWING COURSE SOMANG YANG 46 Pages This exploratory study provides a foundation to measure students’ level of learning based on education theory for digital technology and meaningful technology theory for digital literacy. There has yet to exist an effective assessment tool that can evaluate students’ digital literacy. To provide initial insight into the digital technology integrated course development, Wacom pen- tablet and Autodesk Sketchbook were utilized to create an interior design curriculum for undergraduate college students. The findings of this study shed light on the necessity of assessing new technology for integration into coursework in higher education. There are five themes that an instructor must examine when determining whether to use digital drawing tools in a course: (1) effective learning process, (2) ease of access and execution, (3) transformation of perspective about new technology, (4) technology competency, and (5) impact on the work process and continuous use.

  • AP Art Summer Assignment
    AP Art Summer Assignment Instructor: Bethany Lamb Email: [email protected] Remind: Text 81010 with a message of @aplamb23 (please subscribe! I’ll be sending you messages occasionally and this is a quick way for you to ask questions if needed) Welcome to Advanced Placement Art! This assignment sheet contains assignment information in detail and has content that is tailored to each concentration. Make sure you print and read this document entirely so you understand your specific assignment expectations. Over the course of the summer, you will complete 1-2 final project assignments (see requirements for photo assignments below) along with a multitude of drawings in your sketchbook. There are several purposes for your summer assignments: - To help you generate ideas in preparation for AP Art - To give you one complete project for your concentration portfolio- you must have 15 total images to submit to the AP college board and these projects will contribute to that number - To keep you actively creating so your skills continue to improve throughout the summer. This way, when you return in the fall, you won’t have to start from square one. Sketching and creating keeps you active so you don’t get creatively “out of shape”, just as you would if you stopped exercising and tried to restart three months later after being completely inactive. Due Date The projects you complete will be due by the second day of school (we will be reviewing course expectations on the first day- you may bring projects in on the first day if you are worried you’ll forget them on the second day) along with your sketches.
