Download or read book Arts Integration in Diverse K 5 Classrooms written by Liane Brouillette and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practical resource emphasizes the special contribution that visual art, drama, music, and dance can make to student literacy and understanding of content area reading assignments. Focusing on those areas where students tend to struggle, this book helps K—5 teachers provide an age-appropriate curriculum that is accessible to an increasingly diverse student population but does not ignore other important aspects of healthy human development. Without detracting from the rigor of a demanding curriculum, Brouillette demonstrates how arts integration allows students to engage with concepts on their own developmental level. Each chapter focuses on a skill set that is fundamental to literacy development, suggests age-appropriate arts integration activities that will build that skill, and offers guidance for fostering a sense of community. “A thoughtful look into issues surrounding arts integration as a viable strategy for increasing students’ achievement and access to higher education and career pathways.” —Kristen Greer-Paglia, CEO, P.S. ARTS “An excellent guide to teachers aspiring to integrate the arts into their curriculum, it is both a delightful and useful read!” —Liora Bresler, University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana

Download or read book Beyond Multicultural Art Education written by Rachel Mason, Doug Boughton and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 1999 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiculturalism is a term that has been much used in educational texts in recent years. Its usage is frequently taken for granted in the rhetoric of curriculum literature. However, it has recently become clear that there are significant variations of interpretations of multiculturalism in different world regions. This book takes a new and deeper look at the notion of multiculturalism through the lens of art education. In educational terms art is a unique tool for the investigation of cultural values because it transcends the barrier of language and provides visceral and tacit insights into cultural change. In order to address the educational interpretations and methods of implementing multiculturalism in different regios of the world, this book contains discussion and analysis of perspectives on art education theory and practice from thirteen countries. The authors of each chapter are respected multicultural experts in their geographic locations who are well equipped to provide unique insights into the particular issues of multiculturalism viewed from the perspective of art in educational contexts. The book as a whole provides tools for the conceptual analysis of contemporary notions linked with multiculturalism, such as interculturalism, internationalism and globalisation. It also provides strategies for art teaching in relation to these ideas. While the term 'multicultural education' is problematic, this book presents conceptual frameworks that should assist educators to examine their own teaching on issues of equity and diversity that are central to the multicultural education debate. ©́
Download or read book Representing Diverse Contemporary Artists in the Elementary Classroom written by Lindsey Nicole Summers and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project stemmed from my experiences as a white, cis gendered female K-5 visual arts teacher going from teaching in a racially and culturally diverse school to teaching in a school that is 86% white. The goals of this study were first to improve my own practice and analyze my personal biases, second to inform other teachers with similar struggles, and third, to teach my students about a broader range of artists. The lessons I had previously taught revolved around a one-dimensional representation of culture, such as a holiday or tradition, unintentionally creating a stereotype. In addition to the cultural lessons, I also realized I had created a curriculum of white, deceased, Western, male artists. Subconsciously, I felt this was an unspoken requirement because it was what I learned to teach during own undergraduate teacher education. In response, I developed a more culturally responsive teaching practice that introduced my students to new contemporary artists who are diverse in terms of ability, race, ethnicity and gender. My research questions for this study were: What strategies could I use to decentralize whiteness in my classroom curriculum? How can I include a wide range of diverse artists without lessons centered around stereotype-based projects such as holidays or traditions? How will teaching contemporary artists from diverse backgrounds shift the perspective of my students? For this study, I taught 80 5th grade students for three months during the 2017-2018 school year at a public elementary in the north suburbs of Chicago. The four classes met twice a week for thirty-minutes. To answer my research questions, I employed action research methodology and my data included pre- and post-unit surveys, student artwork, personal fieldwork notes and sketches. Among my initial findings were that my students demonstrated a strong bias towards the canon of Western, male-dominated art before I began teaching a more inclusive, less biased contemporary art curriculum, which I anticipated. At the conclusion of the study, my students changed their associations of the term artist to a more inclusive definition which they demonstrated through their art-making and post-unit surveys. Through my own experiences, I recommend that other art teachers analyze their curriculum for bias and adapt their methods to teach contemporary art and ideas that will engage students with a broad view of the world they inhabit.

Download or read book Celebrating Pluralism written by F. Graeme Chalmers and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Educational trends will change and research agendas will shift, but art teachers in public institutions will still need to educate all students for multicultural purposes,” argues Chalmers in this fifth volume in the Occasional Papers series. Chalmers describes how art education programs promote cross-cultural understanding, recognize racial and cultural diversity, enhance self-esteem in students’ cultural heritage, and address issues of ethnocentrism, stereotyping, discrimination, and racism. After providing the context for multicultural art education, Chalmers examines the implications for art education of the broad themes found in art across cultures. Using discipline-based art education as a framework, he suggests ways to design and implement a curriculum for multicultural art education that will help students find a place for art in their lives. Art educators will find Celebrating Pluralism invaluable in negotiating the approach to multicultural art education that makes the most sense to their students and their communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book invites readers to consider the possibilities for learning and growth when artists and arts educators come into a classroom and work with teachers to engage students in drama, dance, visual art, music, and media arts. It is a nuts-and-bolts guide to arts integration, across the curriculum in grades K-12, describing how students, teachers, and artists get started with arts integration, work through classroom curriculum involving the arts, and go beyond the typical "unit" to engage in the arts throughout the school year. The framework is based on six years of arts integration in the Chicago Arts Partnerships in Education (CAPE). Renaissance in the Classroom: *fully explains the planning, implementation, and assessment processes in arts integration; *frames arts integration in the larger context of curriculum integration, problem-based learning, and the multiple intelligences; *provides the theoretical frameworks that connect standards-based instruction to innovative teaching and learning, and embeds arts education in the larger issue of whole school improvement; *blends a description of the arts integration process with personal stories, anecdotes, and impressions of those involved, with a wealth of examples from diverse cultural backgrounds; *tells the stories of arts integration from the classroom to the school level and introduces the dynamics of arts partnerships in communities that connect arts organizations, schools, and neighborhoods; *offers a variety of resources for engaging the arts--either as an individual teacher or within a partnership; and *includes a color insert that illustrates the work teachers, students, and artists have done in arts integration schools and an extensive appendix of tools, instruments, Web site, contacts, and curriculum ideas for immediate use. Of primary interest to K-12 classroom teachers, arts specialists, and visiting artists who work with young people in schools or community arts organizations, this book is also highly relevant and useful for policymakers, arts partnerships, administrators, and parents.
