The July/August 2012 issue of Pottery Making Illustrated includes an Instructors File article by Claire O'Connor on classroom strategies that work when teaching ceramics to adult students (post college). We want to extend the conversation beyond the magazine, so, if you're a teacher who works with adults, or you're an adult who is taking ceramics classes, please share your ideas on what has worked best for you when teaching/ learning about techniques, aesthetics, and how to convey your ideas in clay by posting them in this thread.

I just wanted to add that if your event is a few months away, you should also consider submitting information about it to Ceramics Monthly for inclusion in the Calendar section in print and online. Here's the link to the submission page. Once you're there, just scroll down to the listings section: http://ceramicartsdaily.org/ceramics-monthly/submit-content/ Images and press releases about exhibitions are also welcome, and can be submitted to editorial@ceramics.org, or for numerous images, on cd to our mailing address: 600 N. Cleveland Ave. Ste. 210, Columbus, OH 43082. Images and press releases are considered for possible inclusion in the Upfront section of the magazine. The editorial staff reviews submissions once per month. Both of these options are free. Jessica
