“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, involve me and I learn” (quote)

 

В формате системно-деятельностного подхода, лежащего в основе ФГОС, был проведен этот интегрированный учебный модуль, включающий в себя:

- экскурсию на Ломоносовский фарфоровый завод (г. Санкт-Петербург) – ознакомление с историей ЛФЗ (музей завода) и процессом создания, росписи и обжига фарфора,

- мастер-класс (свободный выбор рисунка и нанесение его на фарфоровой чашке или тарелке),

- quiz по теме фарфора – история, особенности росписи фарфора, его виды, высказывания известных людей и т.п. (на английском языке).

Проведение этого модуля имело огромное значение для учащихся художественного лицея поскольку они именно здесь (на производстве)  сумели применить свои знания на практике, осознали востребованность своего образования для жизни и способность применять их прикладного использования, что очень важно для формирования готовности учащихся к саморазвитию и непрерывному образованию.
