• Assign individual students or small groups of students to a specific artist and/or one of his works. Have them do initial research using this site, then supplemental research using the other proposed sites, books, etc. They can write a paper about what they learn, and report their findings back to the class in the form of a presentation.
• Have a period of class set aside for discussion. This is the most effective way to learn about art history, after you have done some initial research. The students should have formed opinions about the artists and their works, and they need to be able to put them into words and convey them to others. Make sure that everyone participates, whether they liked or disliked the material. Make them specify why!
• Have the students do hands-on projects. They can make their own works of art, modelling them after the artists' works given on this site. This does not have to be an expensive activity. As they see, you can make art out of just about anything! Be creative, and have them be creative as well!
• Go on a field trip to a local or semi-local museum or art gallery. Look at the works of art that students on campus are producing, or try to find somewhere close to go where your students will be able to examine works of art more closely.
• Of course, easy ways to test the students' knowledge are things like quizzes, essays, true/false questions, fill in the blanks, matching, etc., but there is always room for creativity!
