"After having the please of working with Project Kids & Cameras at the Kensington Community School, I invited Diana to work with my Additional Qualifications Art Part 1/2 candidates at OISE. Diana addressed technique, critical thinking, problem-solving and the creative process. Within a two-hour period, teachers were able to create a photo and in the online learning portion of the AQ, they wrote an artist statement that explained their work. Several of my AQ candidates were so inspired by their learning that they took their own students on a photo scavenger hunt!"
