PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

First goal step: Choose an aperture or shutter speed technique for creative study

Performance objective(s)
Using prior knowledge of aperture and shutter speed techniques (CN) and awareness of
desired creative technique use (CN), students will choose (B) an aperture or shutter speed
technique (CR) to study for creative implementation after five minutes of reflection (CR).

Second goal step: Use a Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) application to generate original
images

Performance objective(s)
Given access to a Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) application (CN) and after
reviewing their understanding of its functionalities (CN), learners will use the application for
fifteen minutes (CR) to generate ten original images (B) demonstrating experimentation and
exploration of creative use of chosen aperture or shutter speed techniques (CR).

Third goal step: Curate a Selection from GenAI Images for Analysis

Performance objective(s)
After generating ten original images (CN, CR), students will curate a selection (B) of three
images (CR) that best emphasize the creative use of their chosen aperture or shutter speed
technique and interest them creatively (CR).

Fourth goal step: Analyze GenAI Images for Technique Execution

Performance objective(s)
Using their previously acquired understanding of their chosen photographic techniques (CN),
prior knowledge of composition, design principles, and art elements (CN), and awareness of
available equipment (CN), students will critically analyze the curated GenAI images (B),
identifying (B) three notable aspects in each (CR) and evaluating (B) how to emulate the
employed techniques (CR).

Fifth goal step: Select Necessary Equipment and Adjust Camera Settings to Produce Emulations

Performance objective(s)
After identifying and evaluating how to emulate techniques employed in curated images (CN),
students will use their knowledge of the different types of photography equipment and camera
settings available (CN) to select appropriate equipment (B) and adjust camera settings (B),
ensuring alignment with the creative techniques and desired outcomes to create one emulation
with eighty percent accuracy (CR).

Sixth goal step: Submit Work for Feedback and Peer Critique

Performance objective(s)
Given guidelines for constructive feedback and peer critique sessions (CN) and using prior
knowledge of how to use an online discussion board (CN), students will submit their
emulation photographic works for review (B), provide constructive feedback (B) to two peers
(CR), and be receptive to feedback on their work (B) to actively participate in discussions
(CR).

Seventh goal step: Revise and Submit Final Artworks

Performance objective(s)
Using feedback from the discussion board (CN) and continued access to photography
resources (CN), students will revise their photographic works (B) and submit finalized
artworks (B) that demonstrate notable (CR) improvements in technique execution, creativity,
or alignment with the intended artistic vision (CR).

AI-ASSISTED EMULATIVE PRACTICE OBSERVATION

Instructions for observer: First, explain to learners the benefit of emulative practice for
developing creativity, then ask learners to choose an aperture or shutter speed technique for creative
study. Second, demonstrate how to use a GenAI application to generate original images with chosen
technique. Third, allow learners to time generate their own original images, curate a selection, and
analysis for emulative practice. Fourth, allow learners time to produce emulations for online
submission. Fifth, explain and demonstrate how to effectively give and receive feedback. Sixth, allow
learners time to
