The epic is based on the artistic reproduction of the outside world, when the speaker (the author himself or the narrator) reports the events and their details as something that has passed and is remembered, along the way resorting to descriptions of the situation of the action and the appearance of the characters, and sometimes to reasoning. Lyrics are a direct expression of the writer's feelings and thoughts. The dramatic mode combines the first two when characters with the most different characters presented in one play with direct lyrical self-revelation.

Human labor activity is constantly improving, acquiring creative nature. Many people manage to rise to the highest level in their creations and inventions. So what is technical creativity? This is an activity, the main task of which is to create such technical solutions that will be new and have social significance not only in their own country, but also outside it, that is, the world. Otherwise, it is called invention, which is equivalent to the concept of technical creativity. And it is interconnected with scientific, artistic and other types.

For our contemporaries, great opportunities are open and all conditions have been created for doing what they love. There is a huge number of specialized clubs, palaces, circles, scientific societies. In these institutions, adults and children are engaged in aircraft and ship modeling, motorcycle sports, karting, auto design, programming, computer science, and computer technology. Such types of creativity as the development of designs for sports vehicles are very popular: mini-cars, autocars, equipment for fishermen, tourists and climbers.

2. Paper plastics in terms of creativity is very similar to sculpture. But, in paper plastic, all products are empty inside, all products are shells of the depicted object. And in sculpture, either the volume is increased with additional elements, or the excess is removed (cut off).
Examples: http://stranamasterov.ru/taxonomy/term/462

3. Corrugated tubes - this is the name of the technique for making products, in which for decorating surfaces or for creating volumetric figures corrugated paper tubes are used. Corrugated tubes are obtained by winding a strip of paper on a stick, pencil or knitting needle, followed by compression. The compressed corrugated tube holds its shape well and has many options for execution and use.
Examples:

4. Quilling (from the English quilling - from the word quil "bird feather") - the art of paper rolling. Originated in medieval Europe, where the nuns created medallions by twisting paper strips with gilded edges on the tip of a bird's feather, which created an imitation of a gold miniature.

Pop-up is a whole trend in art. This technique combines elements of techniques.
- Kirigami and Cutouts and allows you to create three-dimensional designs and postcards that fold into a flat figure.
Examples:
- Kusudama (Japanese: "medicine ball") - a paper model, which is usually (but not always) formed by stitching together the ends of many identical pyramidal modules (usually stylized flowers folded from a square sheet of paper), so that a spherical body is obtained forms. Alternatively, individual components can be glued together (for example, the kusudama in the bottom photo is completely glued, not sewn). Sometimes, as a decoration, a tassel is attached from below.
The art of kusudama comes from an ancient Japanese tradition where kusudama was used for incense and a mixture of dry petals; these may have been the first true bouquets of flowers or herbs. The word itself is a combination of the two Japanese words kusuri (medicine) and tama (ball). Currently, kusudami are usually used for decoration or as gifts.
Kusudama is an important part of origami, particularly as a precursor to modular origami. It is often confused with modular origami, which is incorrect, since the elements that make up kusudama are sewn or glued, and not nested into each other, as modular origami suggests.
Examples:
- Origami from circles - folding origami from a paper circle. Usually, an appliqué is then glued from the folded parts.
Examples:
- Origami modular - the creation of three-dimensional figures from triangular origami modules - invented in China. The whole figure is assembled from many identical parts (modules). Each module is folded according to the rules of classic origami from one sheet of paper, and then the modules are connected by nesting them into each other. The resulting friction force does not allow the structure to disintegrate.
Examples:

5. Papier-mâché (French papier-mâché “chewed paper”) is an easily shaped mass obtained from a mixture of fibrous materials (paper, cardboard) with adhesives, starch, gypsum, etc. Papier-mâché is used to make dummies , masks, study guides, toys, theatrical props, boxes.

This type of work can be determined by many factors: force, texture and thickness of the material, the direction of its cutting, layout and other factors.
Examples:
Kinds:
- Parchment - parchment paper (thick waxed tracing paper) is processed with an embossing tool and becomes convex and whitens during processing. In this technique, interesting postcards are obtained, and this technique can also be used to design a scrappage.
Examples:

5. Decoupage (from the French decoupage - noun, “what is cut out”) is a technique for decorating, appliqué, decorating with cut paper motifs. Chinese peasants in the XII century. began to decorate furniture in this way. And in addition to cut out pictures from thin colorful paper, they began to cover it with varnish to make it look like a painting! So, along with beautiful furniture, this technique also came to Europe.
Today, the most popular material for decoupage is three-layer napkins. Hence the other name - "napkin technology". The application can be absolutely limitless - dishes, books, caskets, candles, vessels, musical instruments, flower pots, bottles, furniture, shoes and even clothes! Any surface - leather, wood, metal, ceramics, cardboard, textiles, gypsum - must be plain and light, because. the pattern cut out of the napkin should be clearly visible.
Examples:

6. Carving (from the English. carvу - cut, cut, engrave, cut; carving - carving, carving, carved ornament, carved figure) in cooking - this is the simplest form of sculpture or engraving on the surface of vegetables and fruits, such short-lived decorations table.
Examples:

7. Collage is a creative genre when a work is created from a wide variety of cut out images pasted onto paper, canvas or digitally. Comes from fr. papier collée - pasted paper. Very quickly, this concept began to be used in an expanded sense - a mixture of various elements, a bright and expressive message from fragments of other texts, fragments collected on the same plane.
The collage can be completed by any other means - ink, watercolor, etc.
Examples:

8. Constructor (from lat. constructor "builder") - an ambiguous term. For our profile, this is a set of mating parts. i.e. details or elements of some future layout, information about which is collected by the author, analyzed and embodied in a beautiful, artistically executed product.
Designers differ in the type of material - metal, wood, plastic and even paper (for example, paper origami modules). The combination of various elements creates interesting designs for games and fun.
Examples:

9. Modeling - shaping plastic material (plasticine, clay, plastic, salt dough, snowball, sand, etc.) with the help of hands and auxiliary tools. This is one of the basic techniques of sculpture, which is designed to master the primary principles of this technique.
Examples:

10. A layout is a copy of an object with resizing (usually reduced), which is made with the preservation of proportions. The layout should also convey the main features of the object.
To create this unique work, you can use various materials, it all depends on its functional purpose (exhibition layout, gift, presentation, etc.). It can be paper, cardboard, plywood, wooden blocks, plaster and clay parts, wire.
Examples:
Layout view - a model is a valid layout that depicts (imitates) any significant features of the original. Moreover, attention is focused on certain aspects of the modeled object or equally detailed thereof. The model is created to be used, for example, for visual-model teaching of mathematics, physics, chemistry and other school subjects, for a sea or air club. A variety of materials are used in modeling: balloons, light and plastic mass, wax, clay, gypsum, papier-mâché, salt dough, paper, foam plastic, foam rubber, matches, knitting threads, fabric ...
Modeling is the creation of a model that is reliably close to the original.
"Models" are those layouts that are in effect. And models that do not work, i.e. "strand" - usually called a layout.
Examples:

11. Soap making. Animal and vegetable fats, fat substitutes (synthetic fatty acids, rosin, naphthenic acids, tall oil) can be used as raw materials for obtaining the main component of soap.
Examples:

12. Sculpture (lat. sculptura, from sculpo - cut, carve) - sculpture, plastic - a type of fine art, the works of which have a three-dimensional shape and are made of solid or plastic materials (metal, stone, clay, wood, plaster, ice, snow , sand, foam rubber, soap). Processing methods - molding, carving, casting, forging, chasing, cutting, etc.
Examples:

13. Weaving - production of fabrics and textiles from yarn.
Examples:

14. Filting (or felting, or felting) - felting wool. There is "wet" and "dry".
Examples:

15. Flat chasing is one of the types of arts and crafts, as a result of knocking out a certain ornamental relief, drawing, inscription or a round figured image, sometimes close to engraving, on a plate, a new work of art is created.
The processing of the material is carried out with the help of a rod - a chasing, which is placed vertically, on the upper end of which they hit with a hammer. Moving the coinage gradually manifested new form. The material must have a certain plasticity and the ability to change under the influence of force.
Examples:

In conclusion, it should be noted that the division (unification on some basis) of most techniques is conditional (subjective), and many applied art techniques are multi-techniques, i.e. they combine several types of techniques.

All pleasant creativity!
Your Margaret.

New technologies in arts and crafts

Facing - a type of paper art, which consists in creating an applicative mosaic created from small pieces of corrugated (crepe) paper.

Encaustic - a painting technique in which the binder of paints is wax. Painting is done with paints in molten form (hence the name). A variety of encaustic is wax tempera, which is distinguished by its brightness and richness of colors. Many early Christian icons were painted in this technique. Originated in Ancient Greece.

Kumihimo- old Japanese technique weaving.

Fredpoint - creating pictures using small pieces of woolen threads. “Fredpoint” is the name of the technique that was invented in the Khitkov family (from the English “thread” - yarn and “point” - point).

Kinusaiga - a kind of amateur art, the creation of artistic products (like a mosaic) from multi-colored pieces of fabric.

Felting - a special needlework technique, during which a pattern on fabric or felt, voluminous toys, panels, decorative elements, garments or accessories is created from felting wool.

Tapestry - thematic and decorative wall compositions, made according to the classical technology of weaving tapestries from dyed woolen, linen, cotton and synthetic threads. A tapestry is created behind a loom.

Batik - Art painting by fabric

Linocut - engraving, that is, an imprint from a drawing carved on linoleum or on a plastic material similar to it

Hanutel - Exclusive Maltese needlework. The ganutel uses thin spiral wire and silk threads to wind parts, as well as beads, pearls or seed beads. Brilliant flowers are elegant and light.

Guilloche - technique of burning an openwork pattern on fabric manually using a burning device

Tsumami Kanzashi .

Tsumami is based on origami. Only they fold not paper, but squares of natural silk. The word "Tsumami" means "to pinch": the master takes a piece of folded silk using tweezers or tweezers. The petals of future products are then glued onto the base.

Creative

success!

Thank you for your attention!

Instruction

Decoupage (literally translated from French - cutting) is the decoration of various surfaces using carved images. These can be small fragments and whole paintings that decorate furniture, dishes, Christmas decorations, other interior items. Despite the fact that this technique is several centuries old, in Russia it has been gaining popularity only since the beginning of the 21st century. At the heart of modern decoupage is the decoration of the surface with images carved from special paper- decoupage napkins and cards. You can complement the decor with an unusual texture, gilding, craquelure, combine paper motifs with hand-drawn ones.

Scrapbooking ("book of scraps", "book of clippings") - originally the production of albums for photographs. In a broad sense, modern as a type of decorative art is the production of postcards, notebooks, photo albums, decorated with three-dimensional and flat images, textile, metal elements, lace, artificial flowers, which are assembled into a complete composition, on a specific or free theme. Albums, postcards and notebooks can be not only a traditional book, but also folded into an "accordion", a house or a box.

Point-to-point is the so-called painting, a technique in which the surface is decorated with dots applied with a special contour. A feature of this technique is painstaking fine work - in order to get a thin, elegant pattern with beautiful color transitions, the dots must be small, not spread and applied very close to each other. In addition, this is a rather expensive decor method - high-quality contours are not cheap, and a high-quality gradient requires several shades of the same color. You can “sharpen” not only an independent picture, this method will successfully complement the work in the decoupage technique.

Quilling - manufacturing decorative compositions with the help of strips of colored paper twisted into a spiral, the technique also comes from the Middle Ages. Initially, monks were engaged in it, now craftswomen make postcards in this way, decorative panels, bijouterie. The technique is based on the simplest technique - a long strip of special paper is twisted into a spiral using a thin rod (in the simplest version, this can be the rod of an ordinary ballpoint pen). Then the workpiece is given an oblong, bent on one side, or any other shape, resulting in various petals, rays of snowflakes, and so on. Usually it is required to make quite a few elements, which are then assembled into a single composition.

« Innovative technologies in the work of the studio of arts and crafts "Rodnik"

Innovative pedagogical technology is a systemic process of purposeful influence on the student, aimed at satisfying the totality of his needs. Modern pedagogical technologies are characterized by the fact that:

enrich the educational process through the introduction of active, analytical, communicative methods of learning;

enrich the understanding of teachers and students about educational activities;

form the competencies of future specialists; provide the formation of analytical, organizational, project, communication skills, develop the ability to make decisions in non-standard situations;

are a resource for changing the content of education and the structure of the educational process in accordance with international requirements;

focused on stimulating the creative potential of students.

The program of arts and crafts itself is built according to a block-modular scheme and involves training inblock-modular technology . This technology allows intensification and immersion in a certain topic, increasing the independence of students, makes it possible to differentiate tasks according to the degree of complexity in the learning process, and reduces time for organizational issues.

1. The main place in teaching arts and crafts isstudent-centered learning technology, which puts the originality of the child, his self-worth, the subjectivity of the learning process at the forefront. The content of the methods and techniques of student-centered learning technologies, first of all, is aimed at revealing and using the subjective experience of each student, helping the formation of personality through the organization of cognitive activity.The purpose of this technology is : development individual abilities on the way of social and professional self-determination of students.

The main implementation mechanism is self-education and self-development of students. The focus is on the personality of the child, who must realize his potential.

2. The creation of favorable conditions for the personal self-development of students, the education of independence in children contributes toself-development technology . The essence of this technology lies in the construction of a developing cultural environment with the active participation of the students themselves in this process. The main implementation mechanism is game and problem methods. Self-development is one of the criteria for student-centered learning. Personal self-development depends on the degree of creative orientation of the learning process. This pattern forms the basis of the principle of an individual creative approach, which offers direct motivation for educational and other activities. organization of self-promotion to the final result. This enables the student to experience the joy of realizing their own growth and development, from achieving their goals. Giving students as much independence as possible, the teacher must at the same time direct the creative activity of pupils. Tactfully assist them in completing the task. Courage, the manifestation of children's imagination and ingenuity are encouraged. The main purpose of the technology of self-development is to create conditions for the self-realization of the individual, to identify and develop its creative capabilities.

3. A fairly large group of methods and techniques of organization pedagogical process brings togethergame learning technology . Use in educational process gaming technologies allows you to get a number of advantages over traditional forms learning - creates a positive emotional background, which contributes to a more successful development of students educational programs development of their communicative culture and social competencies. The main implementation mechanism is game methods of involving students in creative activities. The game has great importance to shape the child's personality. I use the game method as a form of organization of training, as a method of consolidating knowledge and as a means of educating moral and volitional qualities. With the help of the game, various educational tasks are solved: the formation of children's mental activity skills. Ability to apply acquired knowledge in new situations. The specificity of the educational game lies in its structure. The cognitive task is most often not set before the child directly in an open form, but consists in a game task, in the content and rules of the game, in game actions. The child is playing. And at the same time, he assimilates certain information, applies previously learned knowledge. In the conditions of the game, children remember cognitive material better. When summarizing and summing up the results of the block, I use such games as “Field of Miracles”, “What? Where? When?" or a game - competition "Question for a button". I conduct a quiz in the form of a game, for example, "Knowledge Tree".

4. Project based learning technology involves the organization of learning, in which students acquire knowledge in the process of planning and performing practical tasks- projects. This technology contributes to the development of cognitive activity and creative independence of students. At the moment, we are working on the project "Do-it-yourself furniture for dolls." Performed by students of the third group - boys in the study block "Lace".

In general, if we discuss the very term “new pedagogical technologies”, “novelty”, it implies “modernity”. However, it does not contradict the fact that the "new" can be a well-forgotten old. New in pedagogy is not only ideas, approaches, methods, technologies that have not yet been applied or put forward in the combinations used. This is a complex of elements or individual elements of the pedagogical process, which carry a progressive beginning, which allows, in changing conditions and situations, to solve the problems of education and training quite effectively (at least more efficiently than before). These elements can be:

Technique to increase interest in educational material : attractive target, Surprise!, delayed guess, fantastic addition, catch the mistake, practicality of the theory, press conference, question to the text.

Revisiting what has been learned in class : own support, repeat with extension, own examples, poll result, discuss d / z.

Reviewing previously learned topics : own support, repeat with control, intersection of topics.

Levels and types homework : three levels of d / s (mandatory, training, creative), a special task, creativity works for the future (students perform d / c on the development of didactic materials.

Methods of filing d / s: unusual routine (rebus, postman, lottery, cube), ideal task (perform according to their own choice and understanding.

Thus, innovative processes in education are understood as the processes of emergence, development and penetration into the wide practice of pedagogical innovations. So, according to M. V. Klarin, innovation is not just the creation and dissemination of innovations, but also such changes that are of a significant nature, accompanied by changes in the way of activity, style of thinking.
