Material Detail

This site contains an array of information for classroom use. The basic information about color and color uses is good for beginning art students, as well as, art teachers. The site is easy to follow and it does not have an over-abundance of information to confuse students. This was a good site for introducing middle-age students to color and value. The pre-made power-point presentation is a time-saving valuable tool for educators. The site featured a section on artroom activites that was used by an eighth grade art class. The thirty-five students that visited the site were asked to go into the color theory vocab site and find answers that pertained to color. As far as using the site, the students answers ranged from really easy to difficult. I received a variety of responses to the questions I asked of the students. I was surprised to learn that quite a few students prefer to learn about certain aspects of art from the website.There were some students that would prefer to learn from an instructor.
Once the students finished looking at the site they were given directions that pertained to what they learned about color and color mixing. The color theory site gave a variety of examples of student work that is always refreshing to see. I will be using this site again when I have a new classroom full of students. I do believe the visuals really help.
