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.
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 Contemporary Art and Multicultural Education written by Susan Cahan and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary art and multicultural education is the first book of its kind to address the role of art within today's multicultural education. Co-published with the New Museum of Contemporary Art, this beautifully illustrated book provides both theoretical foundations and practical resources for art educators and students, combining exquisite color reproductions, statements from contemporary artists and interviews with notable educators. Absent from multicultural art education is an approach which connects everyday experience, social critique and creative expression with classroom learning; for students from widely-varied backgrounds and differing levels of English comprehension, art becomes a vital means of reflecting upon the nature of society and social existence. To this end, this volume features both works of art and artists' personal statements in English and Spanish with lesson plans which explore topics that connect what students learn in school to what life experiences might reveal.

Book excerpt: Essay aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Kunst - Sonstiges, San Diego State University, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The world is so inextricably interconnected that cultural and economic isolationism is unthinkable, even if it were desirable. Perhaps the most effective thing that can be done to promote multicultural understanding is to use the new technologies -- with their powerful capacity for shaping and delivering human interchange -- as virtual bridges across the vast distances separating cultures. However, if the information revolution is to fulfill its promise, these bridges must carry information that truly enriches and enlightens humanity. Is it time for a new APP exploring the world's investments in Art and Culture?

Download or read book Transformative Non confrontational Multicultural Education an Implicitly Emancipatory Elementary School Contemporary Native American Artists Program written by Christina D. Chin and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of current literature on multicultural art education condemns Human Relations oriented approaches for their propensity to essentialize the art of the groups they attempt to represent, and their implicit reinscription of a hegemonic imperialist discourse regarding non-Western arts. In place of Human Relations approaches, scholars of contemporary literature advocate the use of transformative and social reconstructionist approaches to multicultural education, both of which require engaging students in a confrontation of issues of conflict, such as racism, discrimination, and oppression, in order to promote students0́9 cognitive knowledge transformation towards more liberating perspectives. Existing literature does not show practicing art educators how such theories have been operationalized, particularly at the elementary school level. Moreover, it is questionable as to how practical these suggested transformative and social reconstructionist approaches are for the elementary school artroom environment. The study documented herein focuses on the case of one elementary school art teacher who has operationalized the knowledge transformation potential of multiculturalism through her creation and implementation of a uniquely designed Contemporary Native American Artists program. It implicitly works to promote students0́9 egalitarian perspectives and to challenge injustices in the status quo. While the knowledge transformation that scholars claim is promoted by transformative and social reconstructionist approaches may be desirable, this art teacher0́9s case reveals why the manner in which scholars suggested that this knowledge transformation be achieved0́4by engaging students in a confrontation of issues of conflict0́4may not be suitable, much less ideal, for an elementary school artroom scenario. Her case illustrates one potential strategy for attaining knowledge transformation in students0́9 understandings without incurring the risks associated with transformative and social reconstructionist approaches. Her approach to multiculturalism seems to fit into a space currently overlooked by the literature, and demonstrates an attractive series of strategic multicultural practices that are particularly well suited for the elementary school arena.
Download or read book Handbook of Research and Policy in Art Education written by Elliot W. Eisner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-04-12 with total page 1336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of Research and Policy in Art Education marks a milestone in the field of art education. Sponsored by the National Art Education Association and assembled by an internationally known group of art educators, this 36-chapter handbook provides an overview of the remarkable progress that has characterized this field in recent decades. Organized into six sections, it profiles and integrates the following elements of this rapidly emerging field: history, policy, learning, curriculum and instruction, assessment, and competing perspectives. Because the scholarly foundations of art education are relatively new and loosely coupled, this handbook provides researchers, students, and policymakers (both inside and outside the field) an invaluable snapshot of its current boundaries and rapidly growing content. In a nutshell, it provides much needed definition and intellectual respectability to a field that as recently as 1960 was more firmly rooted in the world of arts and crafts than in scholarly research.
Download or read book A Bridge Across Cultures written by Kathleen S. Hubbard and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the function and purpose of art in the lives of women weavers in Oaxaca, Mexico, from the perspective of a woman artist and art educator from the United States? Personal experiences and research in Santa Ana del Valle, a small pueblo in the State of Oaxaca in southern Mexico are used to develop ideas about multicultural art education. American schools reflect the increasingly multicultural nature of the United States, and require changes in curricula and teaching to help students learn to communicate across cultures. Art education lends itself well to this task. Chapter 1 develops ideas about multicultural art education, through an account of teaching in a multicultural setting at a high school in Washington State. Chapter 2 discusses the differences between art and craft, describes weaving as practiced by one family of weavers in Santa Ana, and discusses the reasons why all art is political in revealing cultural values. Effective multicultural art education requires in part the experience of having lived and worked in a different culture, and gaining insights into the culture through learning its language. Chapter 3 describes the culture of the Zapotec community, in Santa Ana del Valle where I did my field work. Chapter 4 describes the Hernández family of weavers and the importance of the person-to-person relationship developed between the researcher and members of the Hernández family. Issues such as migration, alcoholism, and domestic violence experienced in the lives of the members of the family are used to illustrate the issues facing Santañeros (people who live in Santa Ana) in a time of cultural change, and the effect these issues have on their lives as weavers. Chapter 5 proposes that the act of making art can help heal cross-cultural and intra-cultural wounds. In the classroom, art can help create a bridge between cultures by helping students get in touch with themselves and learn to communicate in ways that enhance care and understanding. The paper concludes with personal reflections on art in schools and my experiences in the past few years of work on this project.

Download or read book Teaching Art by Teleconferencing in Rural Schools written by Mary Judith Bewer and published by Brandon, Man. : Rural Development Institute, Brandon University. This book was released on 1994 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An art course was adapted from the Manitoba curriculum for grade 9 and delivered via teleconferencing to three small, geographically isolated schools in Birdtail River School Division, Manitoba. Participants included 1 adult planning to study art at a community college and 38 students in grades 8-10 at a German-speaking Hutterian K-10 school, a French-speaking K-11 school, and an English-speaking college preparatory school. The course was based on previous experience with an experimental teleconference art course, a review of practices of teaching art by distance education, and consultation with 11 Manitoba teachers who had taught other subjects via teleconferencing. Course design involved writing workbook modules that could also be completed via independent study, selection of texts and art reproduction kits for purchase by participating schools, preparation of supplementary visual displays, and planning of strategies to increase interactions between teacher and students and among students from different sites. Implementation steps included preliminary visits to each site for classroom preparation and orientation of students and class proctors, preparation of detailed proctor guides, meetings with principals to gain their support, and arrangements to transport student art assignments. Course evaluations by the teacher, students, and proctors indicated that teleconferencing, while no one's method of choice, was a viable delivery method producing results similar to those in regular classrooms. Recommendations relate to the status of teleconference courses in schools, provision of quality resources, and the search for appropriate models for teleconference courses. Contains 31 references. Appendices include evaluation questionnaires and course materials. (SV)
