Yesterday I attended a workshop on making jewelry from Precious Metal Clay (PMC). I had no experience using this material. I had not worked with jewelry design for years. It was a full day and I left the workshop with two pendants and a lot of satisfaction.
As I reflected on the day, I thought about what I had experienced as a learner. Based on my own thirty-five years of teaching art and working with K-12 learners I considered my list of characteristics of a good learner.
