Welcome to Our New High School Blog Site
Hi,
I am your new Secondary Representative for the state of Alabama on the Alabama Art Education Association. My name is Schmidt and I am your hostess. I hope to use this to post all kinds of information that you might need to teach Visual Arts in the High School. I will have links to blogs and sites of other high schools in our area. If you have questions about anything on the site if you comment they will come directly to me. If they are to embarassing I will not post them but email you an answer. If I think your question might help someone else I will post it so we can all learn.
I will be teaching a workshop at the Decatur Conference in blogging and you can set up one of these for yourself and your class. I really recommend doing it even it is only to publish the student works. It is also a great way to critique and you can get hits from all over. Students can invite their friends and so on and so on. Once you get one going you can email your site and I can put it on my blogroll.
Also I have posted instructional videos online for students to learn from or to re-learn from if you have some of those that you have to tell the same thing over and over again. You may have very gifted students and don’t have to do that. tee-hee. I have an example of a video on this site under Podcasts in the Categories.
I would love to post images that your classes are creating and if you don’t send them I may have to nab them where I can. I can be quite a crafty person with a camera and screen capture so remember nothing is sacred. Beware: I will never list full names on this site- just first names and school.
