EDUC 5843 - Creative Design - Day 9

Mark Rothko (orange & yellow) 

I enjoyed our discussion around Mark Rothko's painting, orange & yellow. His painting is a great expression of creativity. Rothko purposefully does not include bold edges or lines to the rectangles in his paintings. I think this can be translated to our current classrooms. We, as educators, should be providing the framework for learning, but without limitations. We need to impose students sense of freedom & risk, and let them go beyond the borders. Only after this, will we have students reaching their full potential.
