It was set up at the beginning of the class, they were aware of my movement across the room but paid no heed to what i was doing. I rested the projector against the wall so the video was displayed on the ceiling. It went unnoticed for the first 15mins, when an interuption to the lesson occurred with other students coming it it was spotted by one female student. She exclaimed at first then proffered her confusion before realising the tablet projector was providing the image. The initial reaction drew the attention of the other classmates who also exclaimed their confusion.
They are a very open group and we're happy to discuss their thoughts. The main thing was where the image was coming from, initially they thought it was a 'ghost' or a mysterious phenomena, they didn't pay much attention to the image other that it was 'some girl drawing' on the ceiling.
We discusssed the video and the conflict of made and making, how it looked like someone tracing something. What it actually was and what I was going to do with it.
5th March - yr 9. - math cover. Out of context of the art room. The students are mostly familiar as I have or do teach them art. One of them noticed when I set up the projector on the teachers desk. No questions were asked. Even when I obviously watched the video myself they did not engage with the projection. It has been playing for 21minutes and they have not reacted.
