Pamela Gordon has been teaching at Connecticut State Community College (formerly Norwalk Community College) since 2009. At CT State, Pam offers two classes: Art Appreciation and The Creative Voice (an interdisciplinary class in which students explore their own creative processes).
"[Art Matters] is thorough, interactive, and forward-thinking - meaning it is very much moving toward the global approach to art appreciation that so many institutions strive for. . . . The "Practice Art Matters" [activities] I believe reach a broad range of students, and should make them think practically and maybe emotionally about some works of art. In a course with an overwhelming number of nonmajors, this type of info and approach is critical." - Alice Jackson, University of Alabama at Birmingham"[Art Matters] really connects students to the importance of art and helps them appreciate the way art reflects its time and culture. Starting with the controversy of Maya Lin's Vietnam Memorial [in Chapter 1] really intrigues all of the students and sets them up for understanding different points of view with art right away." - Julie Sawyer, University of Massachusetts, Lowell
