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 Cultural Literacy Arts Education written by Ralph Alexander Smith and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirteen experts in the visual arts, literature, music, dance, and theater responded to the arguments of E. D. Hirsch's "Cultural Literacy: What Every American Needs to Know", focusing particularily on his alarm at the serious slippage that has occurred in the background knowledge and information prerequisite for effective communication. These authorities addressed two questions: (1) What it means for people to be "literate" (that is, able to understand communications and have relevant experiences) in various art forms? (2) What sorts of context should such individuals bring to their encounters with works in these art forms and what would that imply for arts education? The contributing specialists are E. D. Hirsch, Jr., Harry S. Broudy, Jerrold Levinson, Patti P. Gillespie, Walter H. Clark, Jr., John Adkins Richardson, Francis Sparshott, Clifton Olds, Marcia Muelder Eaton, Ronald Berman, Lucian Krukowski, Michael J. Parsons, and David J. Elliot. (KM)
Download or read book The Multicultural Challenge written by Ingrid Aall and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to prepare students for the interactive and increasingly engaged global society. It clearly defines concepts that are central to numerous contemporary issues, all of which explain the difficulties arising from encounters with the unfamiliar. The book acknowledges and addresses many central problems facing students as they navigate through rapidly changing environments that may be familiar to some and very unfamiliar to others. Key concepts introduced and defined include culture shock, future shock, cultural relativity; examples demonstrate how students can develop their cultural literacy by expanding their visual perception. As an introductory guide, this resource alternates between similarities and differences of known and lesser-known cultures, seen from the perspectives of the student. A central theme throughout is the role that art plays as a mirror for our society. Appendices provide a series of exercises and experiments that help students understand the material being presented and, at the same time, challenge them to conduct self-evaluation. Using visual literacy as a guide, the book covers a variety of issues. In the chapters, issues such as immigration, the impact of modern technology, and the impact of postmodern art on contemporary ethics are explored and evaluated.

Download or read book Engaging Visual Culture written by Karen T. Keifer-Boyd and published by Davis Publications. This book was released on 2007 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to help students negotiate visual culture's potent and multilayered meanings. Engaging Visual Culture is a guidebook for teachers to help students make sense of the pervasive flow of visual information shaping their worldview and way of being. The authors offer practical strategies to help students learn to think critically about visual culture, its meanings, and its impact on their lives. Each of the nine chapters focuses on three key concepts: Expose, Explode, and Empower. By exposing students to the presence and power of visual culture, and "exploding" the passive acceptance of the visual messages all around us, students are empowered to participate actively in constructing their own meanings.

Download or read book Globalization in Art Education written by Catherine Ryan Brody and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization is often perceived as a force that is creating a hybrid culture where societies are mutually influencing one another and growing together as one. Students today face a constant bombardment of visual images that influences their visual culture and identity. In my research project, I investigated the following questions: What are the benefits and challenges to educators in the era of globalization? What occurs when students in Chicago, USA and Cairo, Egypt explore their own local visual culture, and compare it to the other through a critical cultural exchange? How can students explore global perspectives in the art classroom? And how can the educator create an environment and curriculum that allows for this exploration? My critical action research took place over two months with two groups of students. The first group of students was a public charter high school in Chicago serving predominately low-income Latino students. The second group was a private international high school in Cairo, Egypt, serving a majority of the elite Egyptian class of Cairo. Methods I used in my data collection included fieldwork notes, interviews with the cooperating teachers and students, videotaped critiques and discussions, pre-assessments, post- assessments, reflections, and students' artwork. The students completed the unit by participating in a live Skype critique. Through the collection of data I discovered that the students' ability to develop global perspectives was improved by their critical analysis of their local visual culture and how it affects their personal and national identity in a globalized world. From this understanding, they were able to critique and compare other students' visual culture in relation to their own, which generated a dialogue around globalization. My results suggest that if students participate in meaningful pedagogy in the art classroom, they will be able to engage in critical discourse about globalization outside the classroom. In an era of global uncertainty, it is essential that students learn and connect with one another worldwide in order to better understand cultural complexities, and how these global connections influence their surroundings. Through critical discussion and reflection about the student's lived experiences of globalization and visual culture, the art classroom can become a place for students to participate in global interactions that can contribute to productive world citizenship.
