Artifact Analysis Worksheet
An artifact is something made by a human.
It can be a form of art or a form of self-expression that has meaning to you. It can be anything that a human conceived of as art and deliberately crafted.
For this assignment, you are being asked to share your artifact with your classmates. Please consider this as you select your artifact by choosing something you are comfortable sharing and avoiding potentially offensive material.
In the Learning Resources area, there is also a document on “reading” images and text. It includes many questions which can guide deeper analysis of your artifact.
Share your artifact or a link to your artifact in the space below.
Include a description of the artifact and include research on the background of the artifact. For example, information about the artist involved.
*** Make sure to cite your sources by including a list of any outsides sources of information you are using to answer this question. Remember, research is always a good thing as it shows effort.
What does this artifact mean to you? Please explain.
To explore this, consider these additional questions:
How has it inspired or moved you? Has this artifact helped make your life or the life of others better? How does it connect to your life or to the educational journey you are starting along with your classmates?
Many people have artifacts displayed in their home; for example, a certain painting on their wall. In a way, we’ll be creating a virtual gallery of artifacts by sharing our choices as a class in the Class DocSharing area.
How does your artifact fit into our class gallery? How do you think your artifact communicates your life perspective to the class? How do you think others will interpret your choice of artifact?
Discuss in your own words, how technology has changed human art making and human art sharing. How do you, or could you, use technology in making your own art?
You will submit your completed worksheet as your Week 2 Assignment using the link at the bottom of the assignment page in the classroom.
Additionally, for Week 3, you will post your artifact in the DocSharing area. You will find instructions about how to do this on the next page. Only post the artifact, not the completed worksheet.
Again, you need to do both of these:

You will submit your completed worksheet as your Week 2 Assignment using the link at the bottom of the assignment page in the classroom.
Additionally, for Week 3, you will post your artifact in the DocSharing area. You will find instructions about how to do this on the next page. Only post the artifact, not the completed worksheet.
Again, you need to do both of these:

Another objective is to give students hands-on experience with web tools and international practices of web-learning. The course aims to achieve its objectives by having students participate in globally-based projects that leverage technologies to positively impact diverse learning communities.
R 4.1 big6 intro
The document provides an overview of the Big 6 approach to teaching information literacy and research skills. It breaks the research process down into six steps: 1) task definition, 2) information seeking strategies, 3) location and access, 4) use of information, 5) synthesis, and 6) evaluation. These steps are designed to help students effectively find, analyze, organize and present information to complete research-based assignments. The document also provides examples of how to apply the Big 6 process to a research paper on the impacts of technology use on people's lives.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation results
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).

Editor's Notes
- Start with some questions about creating / using web sites Ever had a problem using a web site? Your fault? Theirs? Important strategy to improve web sites is usability – and the focus of today’s talk… But first Who has a sense of what usability is? Anyone done any usability testing? Steve and Carol and I developed this presentation to show the value of usability testing and how important it is to good design. this is designed to get YOU (the librarians) thinking about how web sites appear to novices. Our expertise is in getting people to think differently about web sites, and not in working with elementary / secondary school children -- we trust that the YOU will be able to translate our ideas about usability and how people interact with web sites into how YOUR patrons might interact with YOUR web sites ... We’re here to explain the method of doing testing to get at how people see web sites. “… only a small amount of time is necessary to demonstrate … that the best way to evaluate an interface for usability is to test that interface with representative users .”
