Political Art Cartoon

Newspaper art works are an interesting way to display your political opinions if you wish for everyone to see and read. Not to mention people love to see simple artistic work with small amounts of writing that narrow down what the opinion is instead of using a jargon of words that befuddles and confuses everyone. The above image is clearly displaying their opinion. The rich get richer whilst the poor get the poor when it comes to incentives for work.

These are all from Truthdig comics. An interseting display of images from an online newspaper from the states.

Truthdig - interesting web, kind of like a newspaper for people who find certain parts of politics and simplify it for those who don't.


This one particularly stands out, due to their being so many reports of open gunfire in public spaces.

A colourful cartoon interpretation. Cmoics do not have to be just black and white.

                                                                                                                                                                   
^^ The above page break was made by using underline and spacing through and applying a background colour of white (Since my webblog is black primarily) Pretty cool.

Anyway I decided to look at Newspaper articles of education and the photography use. What are they taking pictures of? Is it students? Students work? Education leaders? School settings? etc. These are what I found.


Title :

More children reach expected standard in writing and maths, figures show

Title : 

Confidence, not peer pressure, is key to success at school, say researchers

Title: 

Give every child free school lunches, urges Diane Abbott

It's ironic that when they take pictures of students they have food in their hands or doing schoolwork. Is this supposed to show a positive image of students? 

Title: 

Numbers of new physics and maths teachers fail to meet official targets

Title :

Talking heads: how I got through my first year of headship

When looking at the 'Teachers' column most pictures were of teachers with students around them, sitting, doing their work, looking like exceptionally hardworking happy students.
Are they trying to convey this is what students are? Going back to my previous posts of education (PICKME!) and the related news this seems rather ironic not iconic. 

Title : 

Using games to build citizenship and positive relationships

A secondary school setting. Happy smiling students, studying well, keeping a professional look with clean uniforms dressed well.
