Exploring the World with the Private Eye.
Johnson, Katie
Educational Leadership, v53 n1 p52-55 Sep 1995
Describes the "Private Eye Project" developed by Seattle artist and writer Kerry Ruef and piloted by the Seattle Public Schools. Program materials include a loupe (a jeweler's magnifying glass) and a kit of specimens. Transformed by the loupe, the most ordinary objects present new, analogous worlds leading to poetic and artistic expression. (MLH)
