Educationally speaking, producing artworks should be seen as a byproduct of a much more important process: learning to face the world with imagination rather than with submission. We should treat art as a way of thinking, of acquiring and ordering knowledge, as a tool for subverting conventions in order to refresh and reshape culture.

How am I building my students capacity for learning? What are the intersections between what I am teaching and what my
students are learning elsewhere? How am I preparing my students for a life beyond K12 education?
