I wanted to share this with you fine Art Educators. Using blogs for our classes has another benefit - I can still look to your blogs for ideas and inspiration even after I've left Mizzou. I hadn't heard about the Google Art Project before and I plan to use it alot with my classes this year. I'm going to be teaching 8th grade and High School Art classes so I was planning on having an Artist of the Month and have the students all contribute info about the Artist so we can create our own Wikipedia only as an Artist-pedia. I still plan to do that in a way but with all the examples I can show them from Google Art Project I may make it an Artist of the Week and I'm going to keep a slide show of the Artist work going all week - except when I need to use the computer.
Awesome Ideas keep popping in my head and I can thank you all for inspiring many of them. Let's keep in touch and I'll let you know how my classes are going.
