I thought that there should be somewhere that people who dont understand something that s being taught at school that they could post it here and the forum community could try and help them understand it.

It's sound what?
Ok then, lets give this a shot.
Art is a subject where you let to let your creativity soar and stuff, right? So why are all the Art teachers at my school (except Mr Lammers, he is cool) slave drivers? the give us a set task, that is very boring, like copying SOMEONE ELSES drawing, and not teach us any real art techniques, or give us and Idea and let us draw or paint what we think it mean?
Riddle me That!

I never had the "copy other people's art" in art class (South Australia year 8-10but I have to do by own versions of the "Sunflowers" painting by Van Goth (think thats how you spell it) and Monet's "Bridges" painting.
In year 8 I had a slave driving teacher called Ms. Mann. However, she taught us techniques more than copy som eother piece. In year 9 I did a painting of dinosaurs in a forest because our teacher was hooked on "Walking With Dinosaurs" and she wanted us to do something based on dinosaurs. I did a painting using all the techniques I had learned and after working on it for 4 weeks, I had finished. My teacher gave the piece 300/50 and the rest of the class wanted to know why I got such a high mark compared to the 1 week effort of the rest of the class.

I'm pretty sure it's just you that has crap art teachers ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) I've never had to copy anything and last year we did a whole term on different techniques.

We never had to copy anything either, except to work on our learnt techniques. I enjoyed that through, because I'm fairly good at drawing, and was fairly brilliant at copying, rather than drawing. Go me.
