Session description

Through this walking tour of Philadelphia’s Mural Mile, you'll leverage Apple® mobile devices and Clips® to answer the essential questions: What meaning can be conveyed through art? How might art ignite change? This innovative experience models how creating multimedia propels inquiry-based learning for both teachers and students.
This tour will begin at the "Start From Here" mural, located at 1315 Race St., Philadelphia, PA 19107

Purpose & objective

The purpose of this session is to explore the opportunities that inquiry-based learning provides. This approach allows learners to collaborate, investigate, and be creative. The open-ended essential questions address specific learning objectives while still providing an opportunity for learners to create their own understanding of big ideas. Participants will utilize Clips® to create a product that captures their unique perspective of Philadelphia's Mural Mile and their impression of the messages that the artist might be conveying.
Presenters and participants will meet at the start of the tour to review the Mural Mile map and discuss the essential questions: What meaning can be conveyed through art? How might art ignite change? From there, presenters will facilitate the activity by guiding the group along a portion of Philadelphia's Mural Mile. The group will stop to engage with street art installations, reflect on the essential questions, and capture art and ideas using Clips®. Presenters will prompt conversation and deeper thinking by asking probing questions (look, describe, think, connect). To close the session, participants will have time to compose their final project, share their work with the group, and take a moment to connect the format of this session to their work and identify how this learning format might look within the participants’ own educational context.

Objectives:
- Participants will be able to create a multimedia presentation using Clips® to answer the essential questions.
- Participants will be able to describe their interpretation of street art installations along Philadelphia’s Mural Mile.
- Participants will be able to make personal connections between their impressions of street art installations and how art can be used to ignite change.
