One of the things teachers love about Edpuzzle is its versatility. It’s so versatile, in fact, that you can even use Edpuzzle for art class!
Read on to discover how to use Edpuzzle to awaken creativity, dive deeper into the lives of artists, and inspire the future creators in your classroom!
1. Go on a virtual field trip to an art museum
There’s nothing like a trip to an art museum to engage your students, but what if you want your students to see the Mona Lisa?
Screen record yourself guiding your students through a virtual tour of the Louvre and then embed questions in your video to make your virtual field trip interactive!
You can also search Edpuzzle’s teacher-created content to find ready-to-go virtual field trips to art museums across the globe!
2. Give a tutorial on an art technique
Imagine you want to introduce your students to the technique of shading. A video is an excellent way to go about your lesson so students can pause it when they need to as they practice on their own!
With Edpuzzle you have the freedom to upload your own tutorial or find one from the Edpuzzle teaching community.
3. Ask students to present their art
Wish you had enough time to listen to every single one of your students explain their masterpieces in class? With Edpuzzle, you can!
Assign a student project in Edpuzzle and ask your students to record a video of themselves as they explain their work of art. You can even assign these to your class later so students can share their art and inspire each other!
4. Do a deep dive on art history
Wouldn’t it be great if your students knew all about the period of art history you’re teaching before they even walked into the classroom?
Use an Edpuzzle Original video to introduce your topic and have students watch at home at their own pace.
That way, you can use class time for practical exercises like having students interpret the techniques from the video into their own artwork.
5. Use Live Mode to critique art
Turn your students into art critics by critiquing famous works of art on your projector screen! Just upload the images of your choice into your questions and use those pause points for class discussion. Engagement guaranteed!
