Online Teaching Increases Enthusiasm to Draw
Teaching online can be exhausting, but it can also be supportive in learning. Students who are finding it difficult to draw beside their skilled peers in studio can practice remotely at their own pace, encouraging them to try to sketch without fear. Screen-sharing their sketches with their peers and instructor after trying alone, might reassure them to show and speak freely about their drawings, resulting in more sketching practice. If instructors record their ‘visualized’ tablet lectures, students can refer to them in their own time.
