Fase transitoria (o "en construcción")

Será éste, algún día, un Blog sobre la enseñanza de la asignatura de Educación Plástica y Visual en un entorno bilingüe, con el idioma inglés como "herramienta" fundamental. Se trata, a día de hoy (7 de septiembre de 2011), de un trabajo en curso (a work in progress): por el momento, sólo puedo pediros disculpas por no ofrecer una entidad completa y coherente. Pretendo solventarlo poco a poco; con ilusión, algo de imaginación y mucho trabajo.
Ojalá que termine por ser útil, entretenido, didáctico, variado, participativo y versátil... De momento, nada más. Gracias, de antemano, a todos aquéllos que se interesen por su desarrollo, o se sirvan, de un modo u otro, de los contenidos de este "experimento".

First Post in 2019: Class of 3rd Year E.S.O, "La Albericia" (Santander)

I must apologize for the delay. Eventually, here we are with the promised link: a very interesting web-site which deals with colour theory and chromatic combinatons. 
Besides, it boasts a very practical, interactive Colour-Wheel.

First Time as Your Teacher Here, 3rd Year of E.S.O., "Ría del Carmen" (2018-2019)

Hi!... First of all: Welcome to all of you!... I want you to have a look at this selection of some of my own old posts (still profitable, as it were). 
They´re about issues that we´re already dealing with; or, maybe, this posts might help you in either topics or techniques that are rather impending right now.

- An Egg 
- A Sphere

Apart from that, I will include here the links to the videos that you already watched: This & this, or this one. 

Not at all!

"GESTALT": Shape, Form, Forma... What else?

Dear pupils:

Is this some kind of difficult stuff?: not that much!... If you consider that you have been "working" with it your whole life so far, you will perhaps realise that it cannot be that complex. Actually, "gestalt" is the stuff that your entire visual world is made of. 
As David Hogue told us in this video a few hours ago: "Gestalt Principles and Laws describe how we perceive the world around us as meaningful and complete objects, with a clear distinction between foreground (figures) and background. We perceive whole objects, not a series of independent parts". Quite a summary!... 
We must admit, though, that we have neither time, nor much capacity (not yet) to either grasp -which, by the way, is a synonym for "perceive" or "understand"- or develop the vast amount of information and knowledge that this issue implies.
Anyway, I propose to you to watch some more videos, dealing all of them with this very topic: the way that we perceive and organise our visual "inputs" (things that we see, if you rather want to put it simple); the kind of laws that rule this obvious, immediate, deceptively simple, but utterly complex process: the human visual perception.

- ´Gestalt Psychology and Why It's Essential for Good Design´
- ´Gestalt Laws of Perception´
- ´Gestalt principles | Processing the Environment´
- ´Perceiving is Believing´
- ´Seeing the world as it isn't | Daniel Simons´
- ´Julian Beever (We don´t always perceive what it REALLY IS)´
- ´Julian Beever ´Live´

Some other day, you will have a proper written summary of all this. I hope you will enjoy it.

1st Year of E.S.O., I.E.S. "Ría del Carmen": That video on colours

Welcome all!... This is the first time I deliver a specific post for you. And, as I promised, here it is the link for you to watch that video about colours that we´ve already watched in the classroom.
I hope this will help you to understand much better this topic.
By the way: apparently, this video is the full-length version of it (not seen by us).
I remind you that tou can find some other posts on this right here.

Colours, again (3rd Year of E.S.O.)

In order to prepare the impending exam, I suggest to you to have a look at a few links on the issue or topic the test will be dealing with. I hope it will help you to grasp the gist of it all.

Descargas (en mi "descarga")

¡Enhorabuena los que hayáis captado la sutil broma! (los que me lo certifiquéis el martes podréis reclamar un punto más en la nota final de la Evaluación... ¡Esto también es broma!).
En fin... He estado indagando en "el extraño caso de los archivos indescargables", y os puedo decir que, por el momento, no he llegado a conclusiones definitivas sobre el particular. 
Por tanto, sólo me queda lamentarlo y pediros disculpas por los inconvenientes. 
Ya veré de qué manera se puede resolver todo esto. Bear with me!...

Archivo comprimido: on GEOMETRY, Bilingual Group, 1º E.S.O. ("El Alisal, 2017)

Right here... Not at all!... It is compressed or zipped, by the way (To compress: to apply a compression program to electronic data, so that it takes up less space).
