Paper Summary:

The writer looks at the person who inspired him to pursue a creative path while he was still quite young (it was my mother) and he looks at how art contributed to the learning environment in which he developed while a student in high school. More significantly, the writer explores how art has shaped his own views on teaching, how it has given him a personal sense of satisfaction, how a negative experience with an unsympathetic teacher while in middle school ultimately convinced him that negative feedback when dealing with young students is not a good thing, and how he would evaluate the artistic, creative endeavors of students in his own class. The writer concludes that there are plenty of lessons to be learned by being an aspiring artist-scholar - if only we take the time to learn them.
