Hello All!
This will be a quick overview of our presentation on Just Sketch Me
This platform can be used for personal or educational reasons.
Just Sketch Me is an online platform that allows you to learn to draw or manipulate body parts; students can choose what ‘character’ they would like to use which creates a more inclusive environment as students can choose animals or characters that relate to them. Body parts are color coded to make it easy to distinguish the different body parts and joints. This platform is pretty cool because even though we see our bodies everyday, it is nice to have a more neutral perspective that does not pin point or highlight any parts of the body.
Personal uses we talked about were for personal art, for sketching and drawing proportions.
And then in the classroom, we thought that Just Sketch Me would be a great way to visual the body for students. This platform really appeals to me as a future PHE teacher who uses the body for reference and often needs to reference different body positions. This type of platform would be great to use so students can explore the different parts and movements that their body’s can do. Adding a visual element to PHE can work to level the playing field for students who may not be as athletically gifted or who may not even be motivated to participate in PHE.
