Nice little article, and I agree 100% with what David and Mathew have to say in it.

Very interesting.

Over here I know not a single school that still has/runs a darkroom.

My daughter just entered High School (9th grade) and is taking a "traditional" film photography course.

Thanks for sharing this article. It gives me cause to see if there are any schools in our area doing any of this. I would doubt it, but I might be pleasantly surprised.

One of my friends and a chemistry teach in high school often uses traditional photography as a means to engage students and teach a variety of topics. How many subjects can be instructed that help children understand physics, chemistry, art, history, and creativity?
