It is important to know specific artists and artwork to put into your curriculum, but it is not the most important aspect of the curriculum. It is more important that teachers and educators look at the big picture. A good way to think about what to put in the lesson would be to ask yourself what you want the students to walk away with at the end of your lesson. What you want the students to learn should be how you plan the lesson. When creating curriculum, it is better to leave the specific choices to each individual teacher. Each teacher is different and they all have a different way of teaching. When designing curriculum, it is important to keep in mind all of the key understandings of art. It is also important to keep in mind that the curriculum is relevant. The curriculum needs to match up with art standards and convey something to the students. The curriculum also needs to guided by diversity.
