I Wanna Doodle for Google



With the coming threat of career tech education, art educators need to blend art "career" education with teaching the elements and principles of art and design.  Infinite lessons address this blend, but I must post the Google Doodle Contest.  I want to make one!

A thousand more can be found HERE, the Google Homepage.

  1. In addition to your graphic design idea,some other careers that "blend" Art Education with Career Technical Education -the new term for vocational education -(which is a title that encompasses everything from construction,auto,and ag, to my area of family and consumer studies) are in the fields of Interior and Fashion Design. I enjoy putting a practical spin on the principles and elements of design in my fashion and interior design classes.

  2. Funny transformation of the same idea, hunh? We've seen it all, haven't' we: ROP, CTE, Career Pathways,... what the heck. CTE has some laudable components, but if implemented with the intent its designed with, would be a killer for the fine arts. The funding behind it is huge, art educators statewide are justifiably scared to death.

  3. As we have been in the CTE field my entire career - I have never rested easy - any year - we have always felt threatened!
