| Today in class, each table had the task of creating a group sculpture that was to be judged by 2nd year students. The students were required to use an entire bag of clay, work for one hour, and include every artist at the table. Certain tables were encouraged to plan it out first, some tables could only chit-chat while working (but no previous planning), and some tables weren't allowed to talk at all! After finishing, the groups debriefed. Table representatives described the piece, the process, and how it felt to work in a group setting. 2nd years walked around the room, viewing the finished products, and then huddled up to vote. The winners got candy, of course! It might surprise you to learn that one of the winners today was a table that was not allowed to communicate with each other while working! |
