Description
This is an unusual course with a very distinct twin aim:a. to show the dark side of social media. this is supported through the use of Case Studies to further illustrate the dangersb. art therapy and the fairground: this combines the fun of the fair with art therapySo the course looks at dark side and 'fun side' with the overall aim being one to invite, encourage younger ones in a family to use art therapy but also at the same time to warn them of the downside of social media.In terms of social media we look at:UdemySocial media anxietyHow to start an art journalPrompts for first few entriesDar side of social mediaParental supportArt therapy responses to specific social media anxietiesSo this section will be of direct use to the whole family but especially children leaving home for the first time and therefore may become distanced from parental guidance/support.The second section - Art Therapy and the Fairground - deals with using the fairground itself as a prompt for various art therapy exercises. it is likely that the fair will be visited/familiar to the whole family but perhaps in different groups i.e parents with younger children, teenagers in groups etc.Even so this section will be useful for all age categories. again this too is supported by case studies.
