Editor's Notes
What if you printed out 6 titles, and showed these 6 works of art, and gave them to the first 6 students who came into the classroom (hey, here’s a hidden curriculum of there being incentive for being on time for class, eh?) and have them choose which image the title belongs to in front of the class…..if they get it right, then they get extra credit? >>> Or I could print out 12 titles (I make up 6 fake ones) and the twelve students decide if it’s a real title or not and if it is which one it corresponds to…?
