Verbatim Questions

My 75 hour clinical was done in the art room.  Some of the questions asked by the teacher to the students included:

What is cubism?
Does anyone know who Picasso is?
What are geometric shapes?

Answers by the students included many 'I do not Know', 'Squares, rectangles, triangles.'

Questions from students included:

How do I do this?
Is this good or right?
And one that I found very curious was, What color do we color the water if water is clear?
I feel that the answer the teacher gave could have lead to a learning experience about the idea of the artists and the artists process, but instead it was simply answered and discarded.

  1. Also water is always clear. Artists tend to astute observers of the natural world and if you look to "see" you will always see color. Right?
