Over the course of my sixteen years of teaching, I’ve taught classes in art, photography, and AV. For the last three years I’ve been running the graphic design courses at JB Hensler College and Career Academy (JBH) in Texas. I often assign projects to my students that involve designing logos, t-shirts, and stickers; illustrating scenes from books; or using posters to tell stories of their favorite vacations.
While those can be lots of fun, one of my favourite things to do is collaborate with other teachers and classes, especially of different subjects. I’ve always found that collaborating with multiple classes allows students from diverse backgrounds and varied skill sets to contribute as equals towards a meaningful and common goal.
John Burrows has been teaching for 16 years and is always looking for new ways to get students engaged. He strongly encourages his students to explore their own creativity and find their voice.
