The Guide includes
Before Viewing and After Viewing questions as well as suggestions for hands-on activities. These suggestions are interdisciplinary and will support various disciplines including the Visual and Performing Arts, Language Arts, and Social Studies. Internet addresses where you can find additional images of artists' work and connections to the Online Lesson Library are included throughout the Guide. Designed for use at the secondary level, the content can be easily adapted for younger or older groups.

The Season Three Educators' Guide was written by Jessica Hamlin, Art:21 Director of Education and Outreach (2002-06), in collaboration with the Art21 NYC Education Advisory Council: Thi Bui, former Social Studies and Visual Art Teacher, High School of Telecommunication Arts & Technology, Brooklyn, NY; Dina Helal, Head of Curriculum and Online Learning, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY; Jonell Jaime, former Head of School and Family Programs, Studio Museum in Harlem, New York, NY; Sasha Kopelowitz, MFA Candidate, Purchase College, Purchase, NY; Kristin Smith, Visual Art Teacher, Bronx Lab School, Bronx, NY; and Cathie Wright-Lewis, Literary Coach and Language Arts Teacher, Bedford Academy, Brooklyn, NY.

Art:21 Educators’ Guides are designed to be used in conjunction with the "Art in the Twenty-First Century" series on PBS. Season Three can be purchased on VHS and DVD through PBS and Davis Publications. Educators who intend to show the series in their classrooms can also record "Art in the Twenty-First Century" off the air when it is broadcast by local PBS stations.
