Technology in art class
I wanted to know if you use computers in your classes either for teaching or for learning. If you do use them, to what level do the students use them for art i.e. digital photograghy, drawing, drafting or animation?
Traditional vs Non-Traditional
Hi everyone. I wanted to know how many of you are teachers already and how many are not. I'm not a teacher yet but I have an Art Degree. I am enrolled in the masters program to get the education classes necessary for state certification. This is basically the traditional way to get certified. There is also a non-traditional route that involves a lot of workshops and classroom courses that are not through a university, but through the state. Do you have an alternate program for certification? Does your experience in the working world as an artist get applied to certification?
Iceland Students
Are students with behavioral problems( that are controlled by medication) ever and issue in your classrooms? If so, what measures do you take to insure that they are learning also?

Which is better?
I just read about the beginnings of art education and how simple lines and geometric forms were used to educate children in drawing. While I agree that art should be about freedom of expression, do you think that this approach (simple basics) works better for some children?
