Asking 'why?' something does what it does or looks the way it does is the best way to think critically and explain the thought process we are going through.]]> 2022-12-08 17:32:52 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414645414 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414650743 Humanities can not only help us explain artwork and things we just see, but the things we read such as this poem. ]]> 2022-12-08 17:37:17 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414650743 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414654765 Throughout school, if we have the background knowledge of humanities, it can help us describe more about what we read. When we are critically thinking during reading, it is almost the same as when we are seeing or listening to something because our interpretation of what is going on is so personal to us. ]]> 2022-12-08 17:40:26 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414654765 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414657769 This was another art piece "Guernica" that I analyzed in this class and I think it is so important to add to this. This artwork specifically has so much going on and leaves a huge discussion point of what is happening and how we are interpreting what we are seeing. What we interpret can be different from someone else, and this piece was meant to bring light to a situation and even though it was made many years ago, we can still relate some of the feelings then to some of the things that are happening now. ]]> 2022-12-08 17:42:48 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414657769 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414660824 When we talk about humanities, it is something that is constantly going on in the world. There will never be something that we don't analyze. It is something that has consistency and we can analyze artifacts from thousands of years ago and still relate them to today's society.]]> 2022-12-08 17:44:58 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414660824 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414664092 The classic picture of interpretation. Interpretation is key in humanities to know that there are different ways to analyze and interpret what we are all looking at, and people sometimes interpret things in different ways, and that is what humanities is all about.]]> 2022-12-08 17:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414664092 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414665490 Keeping an open mind during analyzation and throughout humanities is so important because there is so much information being thrown at us, that we need to think about all the possibilities of what could be happening. ]]> 2022-12-08 17:48:38 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414665490 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414671118 "Old Guitarist" a painting I analyzed in this class, and also something I vividly remember seeing hung up in my elementary school. Then, I never thought much of it, but now (I work at the elementary school I went to) knowing the backstory behind this painting, from this class, every time I pass it I think about the way I interpreted this artwork and how I never even gave it a second look when I was younger. ]]> 2022-12-08 17:53:25 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414671118 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414673689 Age has so much to do with how we view artifacts that we look at, and this is also a huge reason why humanities shouldn't be taught until later in education. When you are younger, you have opinions and ideas of course, but they widen and become more complex as you get older. You are able to explain things much better and have so much more life experience to allow you to properly explain what you are looking at. ]]> 2022-12-08 17:55:35 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414673689 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414677916 Humanities is about what it means to be a human. When we are younger, we have such a big focus on the now and what it means to be a kid. And as we grow older, we are thinking about the future and the past and the now and focusing on so much more of what it means to be a human. The differences in these ideas are what humanities is teaching us and when we are starting to become our own human and our own person is when, I think, we should be taught about humanities. ]]> 2022-12-08 17:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414677916 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414681848 This is the Art Institute in Chicago. My favorite museum. This holds so much artwork and so many artifacts inside that are so beautiful. I went over the summer, and when I was there, I wasn't even aware of how much time I had spent there. I was in this building, looking at and analyzing art, for four hours. It was the best time I have ever had and it made me appreciate art so much just to be there and be apart of it all. ]]> 2022-12-08 18:02:27 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414681848 piperkinst https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414687048 As I finish this post, this is me! I am so happy that I took this course and I think it was so beneficial to further my critical thinking skills and further my knowledge about the arts in general. It has been such a great class and I know that everything I learned throughout this semester is information I will use for the rest of my life. I have learned how to correctly analyze artifacts and explain myself until I can't anymore. I have gained so much from this class and hope that I have more opportunities like this in the future. ]]> 2022-12-08 18:06:33 UTC https://padlet.com/piperkinst/wyooye4xlboxxc0v/wish/2414687048
