MY PROJECT

HOME PAGE EVALUATION

When I started my home page, I found some difficulty in understanding the directions. But the director used a MAC instead of a PC which I am more familiar with. This made me a little bit confused. I went through a lot of difficulty during the publishing process. However, I tried hard to do my best and to learn as much as I could especially since the class was a totally new experience for me. I love to learn something new and I love to do something that allows me to keep up with my favorite subject, which is the experimental method through education. This subject makes me work continually without feeling bored or tired.
The evaluation idea was a very smart idea, because it gave everybody a good chance to review his work through another party, and from a different point of view. I found it very helpful even if the second opinion happened to disagree with my opinion. In my evaluation, I received three e-mails from three member in my class. One of them was Adrian . He gaves me good advice by adding more links in my home page. I received another e-mail from Seung-won and the last one were from Steve, all of them was a mirrior for me that enabled me to see the gaps in my work.
As an artist, I like my home page to be colorful and very artistic, because we have very a ancient proverb that says " you can know what is the content of the book through it's title". I tried to use the animation gifs as helpers to attract people or the audiences' attention to certain subjects in my web site. Also I used my own images as a background in each page.
Purpose of My Project:

The purpose of my project is to show that people can not distinguish between fine art and art education. So I would like them to learn more about these topics by seeing my project in the following page by clicking on the link at the bottom of the page. As I mentioned in my letter to Mr. Jim Liven stating:

Rationale
Most people do not know the difference between Art Education and Fine Art. When I was in my country before coming to the United States of America, I thought only people in my country were like this. But I discovered that the same situation exists in the U.S. My friends are always teasing me about how many paintings I had finished or how much clay have I been playing with on any particular day. They also ask: Are you going to teach children how to hold clay? How much fun did you have today? Art education is completely different from what they think. Most of the time I try to explain to them what is Art Education, "which is teaching through Art". And what is Fine Art, which is "Art through teaching students Artistic techniques. I think my homepage will explain my philosophy.

Goals of the Homepage

1. To address all people especially those who do not know anything about Art education and children's art.

2. For the specialists in this field to find resources and a new window on Fine Art and Art Education.

3. To exhibit my Fine Art and share it with other artists.

1. To produce an artistic homepage that reflects my Art and thoughts.

2. To use Art sites and Art Education links and to make them within reach.

3. Also making links with some of my friends and asking them to link their homepages with mine.

In the near future I will develop my homepage and I will add new features and new information every two to three months.

Evaluation

I will have a counter in the near future and also I will put a guest book for anybody to give me feedback.

My project’s Questions

In this project, I have eight questions, which are:
1-Do you know anything about art education?
2-Do you think that art education relates to our daily lives?
3-From your point of view, do you think that art education is important in our daily lives?
4-Do you think that art education relates to other fields of study?
5-Is there a relationship between art and history?
6-How would you rate the importance of art education for our children today?
7-How would you rate the importance of art education for people's lives today?
8-And the last question that I asked if they would be willing to support art education as weekend
Volunteers?

Assessment

In this project, I used a survey method on ten highly educated people. My sample was chosen randomly from different departments at M.S.U in E. Lansing, Michigan
