Photography students studied landscape traditions from 17th C. paintings to modern photography to understand ways that cultures frame ideas and ideals of landscape. They researched student exhibitions from Australia to plan a school exhibition. On a field trip to the Don Edwards National Wildlife Refuge they composed images that explored their own definitions and perspactives of framing landscape. They titled their exhibition: "[re}Defining Landscape" to reflect the many ways we use, abuse, and understand the landscapes around us.

Graphic Design study of symbols across culture. Focus on the symbolic style of Aboriginal Art and their cultural example of living in harmony with Nature. Students researched 10 ways to change our lifestyles to respect the Earth and designed symbols for modern practices in Aboriginal graphic styles. They transferred their designs onto possum skin cloaks - which was the practice of Aboriginal clans of New Sotuh Wales. They etched designs of natural surroundings and important life events into possum skin cloaks that they kept for all of their lives. We imported Australian possum skins from New Zealand (an invasive species on that island) and used the pelts to replicate the possum skin cloajs project at the Melbourne Museum. The modern cloak that we sewed represents the practices with which we need to wrap around our lives to respsct and preserve our planet.

RE.TREAT CORNWALL: HOW TO LIVE WHEN SEA LEVELS RISEAnke de Vrieze
A summer camp where families pretend to be climate refugees? An arts-based experiential learning experiment? A delightful and intellectually stimulating weekend in the highlands of Cornwall, full of laughter and joy?
In July 2018, seven families took part in an experimental 4-day ‘retreat’ in Cornwall, UK. The aim of this creative residency was to imagine and design how to live when sea levels rise. SUSPLACE fellow Kelli Rose Pearson and SUSPLACE project coordinator Anke de Vrieze attended RE.TREAT Cornwall as participant observers. The story starts with a full lunar eclipse, a neolithic cairn, and an unexpected storm. It ends with the Boatbarrow - an amphibious mobile art gallery. This slideshow follows their learning journey and has been compiled for your perusal and enjoyment.
Initiated by Dr. Natalia Eernstman (Plymouth College of Art, UK), the residency was part of an international research project on arts, sustainability, and experiential learning funded by The Seedbox.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Science and art project for grade 3 1
1. Science and Art Project for
grade 3/4
Escuela Canyon Meadows
2012/2013
Lali Molina
Diana Sinisterra
2. Why this project?
Within our Inquiry question for the year “Where does
water come from/go?”, we have design a project that
will help our students to understand science concepts
through art. Our students will also develop
environmental awareness by recycling materials ,to
create a piece of art. With a special focus in our main
topic, “water” and animal life cycles, the students will be
exposed to photographs and a wide variety of resources
such as music, stories art and sounds of the nature . It
will take place in a multisensory atmosphere that will
arouse their creativity and help them to be aware of the
beauty of the nature.
3. Objectives
Contribute to the child’s development of
perceptual awareness in natural forms of
rivers lakes and oceans.
Relate and appreciate art in the nature
around us and throughout Alberta.
Use of paint , papier mache , paint brushes ,
recycled stuff….as a vehicle or medium for
showing and describing their understanding
of learning in a meaningful way.
4. Objectives
Make aesthetic judgements about things in the
environment related to water (streams, lakes,
waterfals,watershed, ice, ect.etc.)
Identify ways in which paper , card ,plastic
bottles etc. etc. can be reused or recycle for
artistic purposes.
Recognize that habitat preservation can help
maintain animal populations and identify ways
that students’ actions can assist Alberta’s habitat
preservation and animals’ life cycles.
5. Materials
We will use a variety of resources to
stimulate students’ imagination such as
books, stories, music, videos, games,
photographs, webpages and their wiki.
We will also use recycled materials to
make individual and group creations , like
plastic bottles , newspapers, magazines,
card, boxes .
6. Activities
Session 1: explain the project, ask for material ,
sketch ideas based on visual prompts, make
groups and have them to think on a common
project.Choose an animal and look for
information.
Session 2: Prepare and classify all the material .
Start to make the papier mache creatures. Let it
dry for two days at least until the next session.
Session 3: Paint the figures with acrylic colours.
Session 4 : Share and explain papier mache
water creatures to the rest of the team.

8. Extensions
This project should ideally be developed in one
month . Some extensions could be relating it to
our great topic “animals’ migrations in Canada” :
whales, salmons, geese and others.
The students could prepare presentations and
record videos in Spanish introducing their
creations and explaining to the rest of the team
why they chose that animal , where did they find
the inspiration and describe why it is important to
preserve its habitat .
They could use the team wiki to upload and
share their works.
