Hello fellow art teachers,

HELP! I'm currently working on my thesis- Integrating Technology into the
Elementary Art Classroom. I would GREATLY APPRECIATE ANY FEEDBACK on your
experiences and thoughts of using computers in the art classroom. Your
experience does not have to be on the elementary level(can be K-12). Thank
you very much.

1) a) How long have you been teaching art? ___________________________
     b) How long have you been teaching computer art? ___________________

2) a) What kind of background do you have in this area?

    
     b) What kind of computer classes do you teach? (Discuss programs
         used.) What was your first response to teaching these classes?

 3) a) What kind of technologies do you use with the computer? (for
           example- computer, digital camera, CD-ROMS)

       b) How do you make sense of technologies in the art classroom?

4) Did the technology inspire the art curriculum or does the art
        curriculum inspire the technology?

5) What are some problems you faced while teaching a computer art
           lesson?

6) What are some wonderful surprises that developed while doing a
      computer art lesson?

7) Please give an example of a lesson that you felt was successful using
      computer art. Did you incorporate any artists into your lessons?
