        (Emma) Concise Image Selection
        Image nop
          • Creator: Prospect Archives and Center for Education and Research
          • Description: This sub-set of 60 images was selected based on study of the 251 color slides. The selection was also somewhat influenced by the quality of reproduction in digital form. Prospect participants have found that 60 images are sufficient, and manageable, for a group of teachers to begin to see how a body of work by a child, created spontaneously and collected over a period of years, reveals persisting patterns of thematic interest and stylistic characteristics and reflects back on how the child thinks and what might support his or her learning. It is Prospect‚Äôs hope that this selection will be used by educators for this purpose.
