Customer Reviews

great methods resource for teaching

I found this book to be helpful during my methods course in secondary art education. I used it during the class as a supliment but choose to keep it as a tool for my classroom.

Learning to teach Art...

I bought this book for my daughter, who is studying to be an Art teacher, and she really likes it. It was mandatory for school, but the professor recommended it highly, and so I can see it becoming a permanent part of her library.

This is a good resource for art teachers.

I like this book because it steers teachers toward teaching creativity instead of making their students create multiples of the same painting or form. It teaches different components of teaching art as well; such as art history, aesthetics, etc. I would recommend this book to any art teacher.

Very Informative

This book is great for the beginning art teacher. It has a lot of information in one little book. I will be keeping this as a reference book forever... Happy reading to you.

Very Helpful

This book is great for assistance in helping with basics in the art classroom. My college professor recommended it and I have refered to it in my studies frequently.
