Module A <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the first module, peer-to-peer interaction helped students to reflect on their thoughts around the significance of nature and get along. From class to campus, they explored the legendary buildings of HKU and learned how to document physical aspects of assigned sites through the use of diverse art techniques. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

WELCOME: Warm Up <\/h6>\n\n\n\n

#HASHTAG<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A warmup talk takes students through the whole CDLA journey. Afterwards, students work in pairs for developing #hashtags. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They respond to the question: “Why is nature imporant to you?”<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each student comes up with one keyword which better describes its peer\u2019s answer and presents to the rest of the class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students learn how to record the physical aspects of space. Throughout this activity, students visit distinct spaces of the HKU campus to document \u2018natures\u2019 by frottage, outlining, and object collection. Also, they learn how to stamp the collected objects; through their bodies, they learn concepts of proportion and scale.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Students created a large collage delving into aspects related to composition, hierarchy and scale. All the production was curated to map materials \u2013 nature and human texture, nature and human patterns, nature and human body. Students delved into the aspects of human scale and movement, because we are not static entities. Bodies are always navigating and using spaces. Objects\/artifacts can be defined by our own understanding of their use, which might be embedded in our cultural backgrounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
