In the workshops held on your premises I would:
- introduce the art of mosaic by displaying examples of my own mosaics, my portfolio of my own and past students' work and books and brochures on the subject;
- demonstrate how to design and lay out a mosaic, the technique of mosaic making with specific terminology, tile cutting and shaping through the correct use of tools, appropriate adhesive materials to use and grouting and polishing of the finished mosaic; and
- with students' permission, digitally photograph their art work in progress and on completion, give a brief critique of their finished mosaic and suggest web sites, other sources of information and direction for further study of the art.
