HU200 ExcelTrack Module Preview Arts and Humanities - Modern Creative Expressions Page 3 of 14 Course Code HU200M1 Competency Title The Humanities and Photography Outcome(s) HU200M1: Examine the influence of contemporary culture on arts and humanities. Learn: Reading and Research The reading for this module will illustrate how the subjects for this course can help you develop skills in critical thinking. As you read, reflect on the ideas that are a part of your daily experience, as this will build your confidence in the subject. When you read about new concepts, take note of them and try to think of how these concepts may be a part of how you experience or evaluate music, movies, ethical dilemmas, or other points of view. As you look at the images in the text, apply the ideas you encounter and practice evaluating the work beyond “thumbs up” or “thumbs down.” Investigate why you react to the works as you do. All of these reflections and considerations will help you in within this module. You will also be learning about photography. It is remarkable to consider that cameras were once rare, expensive, and difficult to transport. You or your family members may remember a camera that required external flash bulbs and rolls of film. Today, photos can be taken in a second and shared instantly. Consider whether you think the changes in technology have altered your impression of what a photograph can mean. In the reading, you will be exposed to innovations in photography. The investigation will begin with a look at some of the first images on film, and then you will learn how photography subsequently developed as an art form. Read the following from Humanities Through Arts , 11th edition: ● Chapter 1: “The Humanities: An Introduction.” ● Chapter 3: “Being a Critic of the Arts.” ● Chapter 11: “Photography.” ● Chapter 16: “The Interrelationships of the Humanities.” Competency Assessment This Competency Assessment assesses the following outcome(s): HU200M1: Examine the influence of contemporary culture on arts and humanities. Photography Assignment For this assignment, you will apply the concepts of photography that you learned in this module. You will compare and contrast two photographs from the chapter on photography to two photographs from your life. This means you will analyze four photographs total. For example, the photographs from your life could be of your ancestors, smartphone photos of pets or food, travel landscapes, or family portraits. You will compare them to the artistic photographs from the chapter “Photography.” Be sure that you only select photographs for

HU200 ExcelTrack Module Preview Arts and Humanities - Modern Creative Expressions Page 4 of 14 this assignment and not paintings. The objective is to examine the influence of contemporary culture on photography by taking a closer look at specific works of art and connecting these works to concepts of the field. Photograph Analysis 1: First, select a photograph from the required reading on photography that you would like to investigate. You will compare this photograph to a photograph from your life. Try to select a pair of photographs for the analysis that you think are interesting as a set — either in their similarities or their differences. Be creative in your selections but be sure that you can explain both works based on the concepts in the readings and communicate to a reader why you put these photographs together. Your analysis should include appropriate terminology from this module and the textbook as well as the following criteria: ● Explain each photograph as though the reader has never seen it. What do you see? ● Describe the image and the style in the photograph from the chapter. Then, do the same with your modern selection. Use and cite an idea from the chapter as a part of your analysis. Demonstrate how your understanding of the photographs has changed as a result of learning more about photography from the reading in this module. ● Assess the two photographs in comparison with each other and share your perspective. Why did you choose to analyze them together? What can one indicate about the other? Why did these photographs stand out to you? How might these pieces have been influenced by contemporary culture? Photograph Analysis 2: Follow the same process you used in the first part of the assignment to analyze a second set of photographs. Select another photograph from the chapter on photography and another photograph from your life. Try to assess different styles from the first analysis to the second. For example, if you use a pair of landscapes for Analysis 1, opt for portraits for Analysis 2, or if you have chosen two photographs that are similar for Analysis 1, opt for two contrasting photographs for Analysis 2 and build that assessment. The assignment should be at least 600 words and must use and cite the text as a source. Cite the resource internally and in a full reference at the end, following APA style guidelines. Citation is important to build the definitions, demonstrate your research, and make it clear which ideas are yours and which are from the source. Check with the Writing Center for APA style tips and other assistance. You can use the optional assignment template to complete this assignment. Turnitin Analysis A special feature is available to help you with reviewing your Competency Assessment for plagiarism. When you submit your Assessment to the Competency Assessment Dropbox, your Assessment will automatically be analyzed by the plagiarism detection tool, Turnitin. Soon after you submit your Assessment, you will be able to view the Turnitin Originality Report. Originality Reports provide a summary of matching or highly similar text found in a submitted paper. When an Originality Report is available for viewing, an icon will appear in the report column of the Assessment Inbox. Originality Reports are only available in the Inbox. For this reason, you will need to download the report prior to the grading of the Competency Assessment. To do this, click on the print icon at the bottom of the Originality
