Choice-based Centers & Design Thinking

I plan on changing my art classroom to the art studio next year. My curriculum is going to choice-based centers starting third quarter of school in mid January. I have two classes for each grade K-8. Next I am planning on introducing the big idea how artists can make a difference in the world.Students will be introduced to two artists for exploring and analyzing their work. Students will discuss what they could do to make a difference with their art. I am going to implement design thinking into one class out of the two. I want to see if there are variances in creativity, critical thinking, problem solving, engagement and performance. Daily journal, photos, reflections, field trip,artworks, prototypes.
