Classroom Considerations
- Alas, while student samples and works by Kirkland are included in the packet, the instructor will need to collect from the Internet images produced by other artists
Pros

- The plan is richly detailed and includes links to related resources
Cons
- No samples of aboriginal dot art are included in the packet
