Digital literacies refer to the capabilities needed to live, learn, and work in a digital society. They include skills like using digital tools for academic research, writing, and critical thinking. Developing digital literacies is important for employability as many jobs now require basic computer skills. An effective model for learning digital skills is the "Pirate Model" which involves assessing one's skills, analyzing gaps, acquiring new skills, articulating skills to others, and reflecting on the learning process. Continuous improvement of digital literacies is important due to rapid technological changes and innovations.

The Elements Of The Ocean
This short document discusses the key elements of the ocean including line, color, shape, texture, form, space, and value. These elements are the basic building blocks that are used to describe and analyze the visual qualities and characteristics of the ocean.
Elements
The document defines seven elements of art: line, color, texture, space, shape, value, and form. It provides a brief definition and examples for each element. It then assigns a photography project where the student must take at least two photos illustrating each element, for a total of 14 photos. These photos would then be edited in Photoshop and presented in a PowerPoint with two photos per element, following specific formatting requirements.
Surreal Photography
Surrealism was an early 20th century art movement focused on subconscious thoughts and dreams. Artists like Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte, and Joan Miro created surrealist works using techniques like juxtaposition of unexpected objects, levitation of floating items, and scale changes that made things appear larger or smaller than normal. The document provides examples of surrealist landscapes, seascapes, storms, people, and animals but does not describe any specific works.
Barbara Kruger
The document discusses conceptual artist Barbara Kruger and her use of propaganda and mass media to make political statements about issues in contemporary society such as domestic violence, racism, business, and the role of women. Kruger creates conceptual art pieces that incorporate photographs and text to question the objectification of women in media and deconstruct myths of male dominance. The meaning of her work depends on each viewer's personal experiences. The assignment is to choose an issue in today's society, sketch poster ideas on the topic, take photographs to illustrate 2 posters incorporating photos and text, and write artist statements for each.
Principles Of Design
The document discusses the principles of design in photography, including contrast, rhythm, unity, movement, pattern, emphasis, and balance. It defines each principle and provides examples to illustrate how they can be shown in a photo. Photographers are assigned to choose a theme, take at least two photos demonstrating each relevant design principle, edit the photos, save them in a labeled folder, and write a critical analysis of one photo.
Barbara Kruger
The document discusses conceptual artist Barbara Kruger and her use of propaganda and mass media to make political statements about issues like domestic violence, racism, business, and women's roles. Kruger takes images and words from mass media to capture viewers' attention and make them question their own beliefs. Her work has different meanings depending on each viewer's personal experiences. The assignment is to create two posters illustrating a social issue using photographs and text, with an artist statement for each.
Composition
Photography composition involves arranging visual elements within the frame. If not arranged successfully, the photograph will not be effective. Composition techniques include filling the frame with the subject, balancing positive and negative space so neither overwhelms the other, and using the rule of thirds to place subjects in the upper or lower thirds of the frame to create a sense of movement or grounding. Strong composition leads the eye in an intended flow across the photograph through implied lines and placement of subjects in different zones of the frame.
Ansel Adams
Ansel Adams was born in San Francisco and learned to appreciate nature while playing in the sand dunes of the Golden Gate. His black and white photographs demonstrate a strong understanding of artistic elements like shape, line, texture, value, form, and space and how they relate to one another. The assignment challenges students to focus on one element, take at least 14 photos demonstrating that element, then print and arrange 6-8 photos in an interesting composition.
Color
Color theory discusses how different color combinations work together based on concepts like color schemes, color wheels, and complementary/analogous colors. There are several types of color schemes including primary/secondary colors, complementary colors (across from each other on the wheel), analogous colors (next to each other), and monochromatic colors (one color plus tints and shades). Shape is also important, with organic shapes having curvy lines and geometric having straight lines. Balance can be symmetrical, asymmetrical, or radial. Asymmetrical balance means both sides are not identical. Positive space is the object area while negative space is around the object, and a good composition balances these spaces.
