3-D Vocabulary Zentangles!

As noted in an earlier blog posts:  CLICK HERE and HERE  Art PIR and Adjunct Professor Triada Samaras has been developing "3-D Vocabulary Zentangle Projects" both with art and science teachers at GOPA and SOIT and with her WPU K-12 Art Methods students, three of whom are also Practicum students at GOPA and SOIT.

Recently, Professor Samaras had these K-12 Art Methods students create strips of "Art Praxis" vocabulary words in class at WPU to help them retain this art vocabulary for their coming test, an event often fraught with test anxiety.  Students also made zentangles in class while Professor Samaras reviewed vocabulary as a way for them to relax while absorbing large amounts of material for memorization.

Later the K-12 Art Methods students learned about creating displays as future art teachers and they were asked to collaboratively create a display of their zentangles and vocabulary strips to make a "3-D Zentangle Collaborative Display" at WPU.  

Below are the fascinating results!
