Abstract

This eBook is the result of a research project carried out during three years: from 2006 till 2008. The study was not easy to conduct and implement. We had several difficulties to manage a research done by people from all continents in very different contexts and using different languages. But we slowly overcame most of them, may be because the reasons that motivated our study were purely personal. We did not have any kind of founding or sponsorship, so we were not bent by deadlines or other constraints. What motivated the study and ultimately justifies it was our interest in discovering what our young people think and express visually about the world because as art teachers committed with multicultural education and visual culture this matters a lot to us.
