This set was developed as a writing assignment for a semester-long Intro to Visual Arts college course. Students were directed to this set for instructions that explained how to complete the assignment.

Before seeing this set though, they each chose a postcard (a real poscard, not a digital one) of a work of art from the MIA's collection on the first day of the course and introduced themselves in class by telling why they'd chosen the postcard they did. They then were given this assignment using the ArtsConnectEd image on the postcard they had chosen.

Once the writing assignment described in this set was complete, the students submitted their sets to me via email (an option on the Set Actions menu).

See the Related Items tab above for an example of one student's work, based on a Dorothea Lange photograph.
