Topic:
Question One

Message:
I would have to say that the first way to advocate would be to ask the students!!! Students learn more about a particular subject when they are enjoying what they are learning. Their input on what they feel would be best is the best way to ensure that the students would be learning. A way to do this might be to have an exhibit with some student "artist statements". This would provide not only evidence, but personal insight to the educators and administrators that the choice-based educator is not just tooting his/her own horn--that it really is a better way to teach art.
