Feedback from Fresh Eyes
The By Sea Arc has got us working double time on our expression projects. Each week a new iteration is due, and we've been taking time on Fridays to get feedback from the Brightworks community. This week students shared their second iterations with the band, and got feedback from someone in our community that was less familiar with their project. To encourage constructive feedback, we used the prompts: I like... I wish... What if... These prompts have come in handy for us before as a way to get feedback on works in progress, and it helps students to see their work from someone else's perspective. Of course, each student will get to choose which feedback they want to incorporate, if they want to incorporate it, and how they want to do it. Students are using the guiding questions they came up with to stay focused on what they had originally set out to explore in their project. They'll have one week to incorporate feedback, and come up with their final iteration. The arc is flying by, and it's so exciting to see these expression projects take shape!
