Validated My Understanding of Art Therapy Techniques

I enjoyed the course. I found most of the materials were of value. I also found that I did validate some of the practices I already have in place around teaching arts and crafts to seniors and folks in assisted living in memory care. What I did not like is that the quizzes seem quite a few flaws. Questions contained more than one answer that was valid. I also found many mistakes (A/C vs 1/3).

Very Informative

I enjoyed this course. There were some quiz questions that could have been answered correctly by other choices than what was the "correct" choice, but that was a non-issue. This course neatly puts out there the basic foundation and how-to of a successful Art Therapy Practice. More about insurance needs, I suppose, would have been helpful, but overall, I loved the learning process, thank you!!
