ACE PROJECT- PLASTIC OCEAN
PROVOCATION

Introduction
The paper will provide information on
the ACE project that helps the student to
increase their learning capability.
Furthermore, the paper will help in
evaluating the aim, objectives and
proper description of the proposed
project.

Synopsis
 Planning curriculum in the ACE project along
with the visual art, community and
environmental project represents the new
direction of creativity
 The development of this ACE project makes
the children capable of problem-solving and
finding capacity and also influence them to
make creative products in terms of learning

Continued…
 The implications of the aesthetic creativity help children to
improve their thinking process in bridging arts, culture,
community, and education in terms of learning and creativity
 Although the visual arts helps the children to create a view of
their thinking visually such as ceramics, painting, design,
photography, crafts, drawing and so on
 Actually, all these activities motivate the children about
learning and thinking process; so this project will help in
improving the creativity of the children

The rationale for the ACE project
 My ACE event will be on teaching the children
about plastic ocean provocation
 The amount of plastic in the world’s ocean
increasing day by day causing water pollution
 This makes the children think about the process
and for this, I have introduced the ACE event
 The question is why does one do this thing? What
choices did the teacher make to understand the
children about the plastic ocean provocation?

Continued…
 The use of the theories and principles of a teacher
effectively invoke the students to reduce the plastic
provocation in ocean (Gernot, Pelowski, & Leder,
2017)
 The teacher used many techniques and strategies
that provoked the student for reduction of plastic
dumping in the ocean
 The teacher used many examples of the plastic
ocean provocation method that attracts the student
to be aware of this

Continued…
 ACE used to express the ideas and feelings of children
through art, music, and movement
 This means the creation of art and movement by
experiment and imagination
 The aesthetic provided a brief visualization of the
environment and community in terms of creativity and arts
 The ACE project will plan in such a manner that the
children get more interested to do that and thus it helps
them to improve their creative thinking in the coming days

Continued…
 Actually, the ACE project helps to improve the thinking of
children about the plastic provocation in the ocean by the
help of their teacher
 Although the visual arts directly related to the nature of the
arts and thus this arts together provides a good source of
experience and understandings that help the project
success in the future (Bowen, Greene, & Kisida, 2014)
 In the educational firm, the ACE teaching provides good
approach to the children by which they can learn about how
to imagine and create new ideas for reducing ocean
provocation

Aims and Objectives of the ACE
project
 The main aim of the ACE event is to develop an
aesthetic sense, perception as well as the
experience of creating and evaluating things by the
own view of a children
 As per the modern pedagogy, every child should
have the chance to develop his own abilities to
observe, evaluate, experience and create new and
innovative things that are beautiful

Continued…
 This idea of teaching every child about plastic ocean
provocation can only be possible if every education
firm offers children a healthy living environment and
an arts education learning procedure
 The aesthetic education is used to innovate the
creative mind of children by the nonrepresentational
forms in terms of visual art and music and this helps
the children to improve their imagination skill

Continued…
 The ACE education is used to develop the
understanding of children that how arts has been
involved through plastic ocean provocation process and
how it caused pollution to the water as well as the
environment
 To fulfill the aim, the ACE event will be divided into two
segments :
1. Firstly, the teacher taught the student about the
plastic disadvantages and its role in pollution
2. Then they taught about its provocation in the ocean

Continued…
The objectives of the project are as follows:
 To develop intellectual, expressive and
imaginative potential of every children that
help them to improve their imagination skills
 To develop skills, knowledge and techniques
of method on the basis of personal
expression like feelings and emotion

Continued…
 To enhances self-esteem and
confidence in every children by giving
them opportunities that helps them to
think and imagine for creating new
things
 To increase creativity of children,
performance of art works through by
exploration

Description of ACE activities
 ACE activities is used to express the creativity of a
children in terms of visual arts
 The Pedagogy theory values and principles influences
the approaches of learning, assessment and teaching
pattern through aesthetics education
 As per the theory the teacher gives full concentration
to the children learning and creativity procedure and
this helps the children to learn about the plastic
provocation process in the ocean through their
imagination

Continued…
 The teachers introduces new strategies or
techniques that help children to take more
interest on the learning procedure and this
improves their imagination power (Grushka,
Lawry, Clement, Hope, & Devine, 2016)
 By this technique the student should focus on
developing higher order thinking and put their
understanding on the plastic provocation
process

Continued…
 The emergence of new perceptions occur only
through learning that strengthen the ability of a
children to construct new imaginaries and create
beautiful things from the mind (Oliveira, Palazuelos,
& Fonseca, 2017)
 Actually the learning and teaching procedure helps
the children to make their own feeling or emotions
and creations in terms of their imagination power

Continued…
 The teacher taught them that plastic has become a
biggest threat for world’s oceans and seas and this
causes problem to not only the human being but
also to the living creatures in the ocean
 As every children has different intelligence power
that helps to express their creativity, ideas, facts
and concepts and thus symbols is used to express
their feelings

Continued…
 The aesthetic experiences offers the children to use
variety of ideas and opinions which have holistic
and delicate meaning to draw an emotional
circumstances and that can express different
perspective of environment and society (Kesner,
2014)
 The teacher of the educational firm used many
strategies that engage the children in the ACE
activities

Continued…
 This strategies help to improve the quality of
learning and teaching process of a children
 The strategies of aesthetic art will help to improve
the passion, creativity and imagination power of a
children which help them to create many innovative
things
 Aesthetic engagement strategy leads to the
enhancement of the own creativity in favor of the
community

Continued…
 As this ACE event mainly concentrated in learning
procedure of a student on plastic provocation in
ocean so the main aim of this project is to engage
the student on this procedure and using this strategy
they can encourage the students to build new and
innovative creations (Qian, Xu, Cao, Guan, & Pu,
2018)
 The main strategies of this ACE project are to make a
good relationship between the teacher and students
in terms of sharing thoughts

Continued…
 Thus the students can easily express his
feelings in front of the teacher through their
ideas about reducing this problem
 This helps the educational firm to engage a
student in the aesthetic learning process and
also it brings interest in the student and they
are able to innovate new things from their
mind

Continued…
 Many of the teachers lack confidence and become
nervous while teaching
 For this, the teacher should develop new strategies that
will help them to increase their confidence and decrease
their nervousness and they can taught confidently to
the students (Roosen, Klöckner, & Swim, 2018)
 In order to increase the thinking power of children, the
teacher should teach them about the effect of plastic on
the environment and how it destructs the ocean floor

Continued…
 This increases the learning power of a student and they can
easily grab the meaning of the lesson in few days (Schlegel et
al., 2015)
 All these engagement strategies help the children to improve
their perception, concentration, awareness and problem-
solving capability on the particular aspects that are taught
 Due to these strategies the confidence of making unique
things also increases in children’ s mind
 Actually these strategies motivate the children to innovate
new ideas and opinions through their feelings and imagination

Continued…
 This ACE event will improve the creative thinking of
a children so the project could focus on school
program, school camp, on a kindergarten family
day, and many other functions where the children
can learn about the effect of the plastic provocation
procedure in ocean (Sundaram et al., 2016)
 This will increase the motivational power of the
children and they can learn as well as create many
innovative thing in the future

Presentation of proposed ACE
activities
 The ACE event is used to
develop the self-confidence and
self-esteem of a person in terms
of artistic process (Boccia et al.,
2016)
 In any kind of art or learning
procedure, skills and techniques
are the most important things
those are required by a person
to understand and evaluate

Continued…
 The skills and techniques are required to
practice with great care and
concentration
 For this, the teacher should learn
properly about the plastic provocation
matter in the ocean so that they can
deliver this thing easily in the student’s
mind
 Mainly the children of age between 4 to
6 years are fond to know about the
environment problems so the teacher
should take initiative to teach those
children carefully so that they get
interest in this project

Continued…
 These ACE activities help the children
to solve any problem by creativity
 This is because, whenever any
children are used to develop any
creative thing they face many
challenges and problems and by the
proper knowledge they can tackle the
challenges
 Although the elder person should also
take part in this activity as they know
ocean plastic provocation is not safe
for healthy life

Continued…
 For this they should take proper
initiative that reduces the
effect of plastic provocation in
the ocean. This project will help
the student to be more creative
by their thinking and
imagination power
 For this, the project should be
implemented in every
educational firm and every
student have to get involved in
this

Continued…
 This ACE event is very
important for the teacher and
the student because it
provides knowledge to both
of them and makes them to
create and imagine new
things
 For this project, a
professional should be hired
who has a knowledge of the
plastic ocean provocation
procedure (Dinham & Chalk,
2017)
 By the idea of this

Continued…
 As per the strategies of the project
team the project should be
implemented in such a way that
every student can take part in this
event and gives their best
 It helps to motivate student and also
improve their capability of thinking
 Supporting materials are must for
making layout and design of a
project

Continued…
 Thus for this proper images
of the individual art should
be given which attracts the
student to take part in the
programme
 Along with this, some
examples are also given of
this aesthetic project so that
the student get motivated
by this

Continued…
 Apart from this; guidelines are
also made where a description of
the plastic disadvantage and it
causes are carefully explained
 This helps the student to know
about the different types of
problem relating to the ocean
plastic provocation procedure and
they will take part in the event
with enthusiastically and will learn
whole things from their mentor

ACE again
 The use of this ACE event helps to understand the
appreciation of student learning procedure and it
also makes out a difference between every children
ideas and opinions about various things
 This project is an important method of teaching
where individual feelings, creativity, and
imagination are expressed and that motivates the
student to create new and innovative things in the
near future

Continued…
 In the future ACE project, new strategies will
be applied and new skills, process, and
techniques will then be carefully implemented
(Saw et al., 2018)
 This new method helps the student to do
better in the coming days and thereby it
increases their creativity too

Continued…
 In order to make learning better in the coming days,
teacher should use various procedure that helps to
improve the understanding of the students in
coming days
 For making learning more meaningful students are
given various opportunities to experiment in their
own ways with techniques and skills and with
materials and equipment too
 All this are planned for the future ACE project

Conclusion
Hence, it is concluded that the ACE project
is helpful for the children and it motivates
students to learn about the ocean plastic
provocation procedure and that help them
to create and innovate new things with
their imagination power. Moreover, the
paper provides the aim and objectives and
implementation of this project in future.
