about DBAE

Hello, nice to meet you.

My name is Keiko Oba. I’m a graduate student at Yamagata University, Japan.

My major is Art Education, and I’ve been studying about DBAE.

I know that some text books (like “Art in Action”, “Adventures in Art”)
are based on DBAE.

But I don’t know how popular these are. I wonder which text books your
schools use in the art class.

I want your art teacher to ask my question.

Actually, I am a parson who has a special experience. I did walk across the
United State for 6 months!

We had 14 members in total. Last year we started to walk from D.C. on March
30th, and arrived at San Francisco on Sep. 8th.

If you have interest in this crazy project, please access this web-site.

It must be fun. J

But unfortunately, I couldn’t meet those text books (“Adventures in Art”
etc.) through this trip.

We often visited schools, art centers, and museums. They didn’t use them.

So now, I really need your help. If you don’t mind, please ask my
questions.

And when you fill up the paper, send it to my e-mail address. I guess it’s
very easy to answer.

But they’ll be quite useful information for me.
