Top-Bewertungen von ART & IDEAS: TEACHING WITH THEMES
It was great to be walked through different theme ideas as well as be prompted to think how I could use themes in my art teaching.
With no background in Art, I found this course extremely useful. The course is well designed and rigorous. Very good reading material and good ideas to take to a classroom.
The peer review grading was great but there should also be a system generated grading added.
