Ass essment - the tail that wags the dog


Ass essment - the tail that wags the dog

Sergiovanni and Starratt (2007), assert that assessment has often been looked upon as, “the tail that wags the dog”, meaning, “what is assessed is what gets taught, which becomes or defines the curriculum” (pg. 127).  Assessment should not be something that happens after the instruction takes place for the purpose of assigning a grade, but it should be a relevant part of the teaching and learning process.

Godin Connectedness

Image
Godin Connectedness  We argued with the vengeance from poorly informed memory. Straight from the loss to blame. For whatever reason it perpetuated justification. Of construeded loss,  from the need to self victimise. To the need of claiming nothing in particular. It was the battle to ingrain and embellish memory. In so, we tore each other apart and to feed individual right. Our eternal want to be known as right. The want for immediate anger to surface, rant and to glorify our past glories of being wronged. And then we rested exhausted.

The Defined Gated Delusion

Image
Gated Delusion The primary purpose of the hall in the gallery is to create a sense of presence in the present moment. It is an empty space that allows visitors to feel as if they have been there but also not been there. The room's design subtly influences the participants' values through external factors. Within each gate, personal gatekeepers appear and tell the participants that their negative thoughts and beliefs are holding them back. The predicament promotes disorderly placement through complex subconscious decision-making. But, the environment ultimately intends to control decisions through subtle and intentional influence. Many at once. A unique and thought-provoking manifestation that aims to create a sense of presence and self-awareness in those who experience its being. A deeper understanding and appreciation of the self is acquired through this purpose-built experience. NFT The translucence beauty of the hall knowingly manipulates and deceives the participants to rea

Gatekeepers of Art

Image
 Consider THIS Gatekeeper Gatekeeper Script  There are many individuals and organizations that can be considered "gatekeepers" in the art world, meaning that they play a role in determining what art is exhibited, promoted, or otherwise made available to the public. These gatekeepers can include curators, gallerists, collectors, critics, and other art industry professionals. Museums, galleries, and other cultural institutions are often considered the primary gatekeepers of the art world, as they have the power to decide which artists and artworks are exhibited and promoted. Curators, who are responsible for selecting and organizing exhibitions, can play a particularly influential role in this process Critics, who write about and evaluate art, can also influence public perceptions and demand for certain artists and artworks. As an independent artist, it is essential to recognize and consider the influence of these gatekeepers Botticelli Gatekeepers Botticelli Gatekeepers script

Q Agony Gate

  YouTube Video Created by JJFBbennett  Inspired by Rodin Soundtrack JJFBbennett · Q Agony Gate Poem Through me is the way into the doleful city.  Through me is the way into eternal suffering.  Through me is the way that runs among the lost. There is no objective reality behind this unknowable gate. Feeling broken, wounded, at a loss, disconnected, incomplete and critically aware. Against those who transcend our threshold. The point is - there isn't a plan when you have been discarded. John Bennett - AKA JJFBbennett is an independent artist.

The Branch of Three

Image
  YouTube Video The Branch Collection Story The Branch of Three describes an individual's struggle to move forward and make progress despite facing obstacles and challenges. The imagery of the moon breaking through and the restless breeze wandering between "past hatreds and future promises" suggests a sense of uncertainty and turmoil. In addition, the artwork in the collection describes the "decisions of others who cut me down," indicating the feeling of being held back or hindered by the actions of others. Yet, despite these difficulties, the purpose of creating is to continually push forward and continuously fight through life to be creative, acknowledging that others may have it more challenging. "But I never wanted to march. But I did," suggests a sense of determination and resilience, despite not wanting to be in this position. John Bennett - AKA JJFBbennett is an independent artist.

Botticelli Beauty

  Botticelli Beauty He saw the beauty of women he painted in himself. He saw the beauty of himself in the women he painted. NFT YouTube Video Poem She is seated before you, a picture of elegance and beauty. Her soft face is so ethereal that it practically floats in the air. Her skin is almost translucent. Her long, curly hair falls in a waterfall of curls down her back. Her facial movement is fluid and effortless as she sits with poise and elegance. She has a tranquil grin that appears to fill the room, and her look is peaceful and calm. She is breathtaking as she forms a golden halo within your darkness.

Gated Corridor

Image
  Script As an artist, I am interested in exploring how the designers of our environments shape our behaviour and decision-making. In this work, I focus on the design of gates and how they can be used to both restrict, enable access and alter entry. Each entrance is unique, with features affecting how we interact with it. We have a personal gatekeeper, an internal mechanism that keeps us from trying new things and reaching our full potential. My art reflects my personal struggle with this gatekeeper, which has been programmed to find and highlight my flaws. Through my art, I hope to provoke thought and discussion about how our surroundings shape us and encourage viewers to question the limitations they may have placed on themselves.
