Download or read book Critical Studies in Art and Design Education written by Richard Hickman and published by Intellect (UK). This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews past practice and theory in critical studies and discusses various trends; some papers keenly advocate a re-conceptualisation of the whole subject area, while others describe aspects of current and past practice which exemplify the "symbiotic" relationship between practical studio work and critical engagement with visual form. Rod Taylor, who has done much to promote and develop critical studies in the UK, provides us with examples of classroom practice and gives us his more recent thoughts on fundamental issues "universal themes" in art and gives examples of how both primary and secondary schools might develop their teaching of art through attending to themes such as "identity," "myth," and "environments" to help "re-animate the practical curriculum." Although some of the discussion in this book centres on or arises from the English National curriculum, the issues are more global, and relevant to anyone involved in developing or delivering art curricula in schools. An American perspective is given in papers by George Geahigan and Paul Duncum. Geahigan outlines an approach to teaching about visual form which begins with students' personal responses and is developed through structured instruction. In Duncum s vision of visual culture art education sites such as theme parks and shopping malls are the focus of students' critical attention in schools; Nick Stanley gives a lucid account of just such an enterprise, giving practical examples of ways to engage students with this particular form of visual pleasure. This publication serves to highlight some of the more pressing issues of concern to art and design teachers in two aspects. Firstly it seeks to contextualise the development of critical studies, discussing its place in the general curriculum possibly as a discrete subject and secondly it examines different approaches to its teaching."

Download or read book Transpecies Design written by Adrian Parr Zaretsky and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-31 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 2019, the United Nations released the Global Assessment Report on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services which warned that human activities will drive nearly one million species to extinction in a few decades. The primary reasons for this are habitat loss and biodiversity demise caused by changing climate, pollution, introducing nonindigenous species, clearing land, over population, and consumption. Given this situation, humans must change course as both human wellbeing and the wellbeing of other-than-human species are imbricated in one another. One way humanity can accomplish the needed transformation is to move beyond an anthropocentric view of life by embracing a transpecies approach that is premised upon interconnected flourishing. Transpecies design, as outlined in this book, offers a new approach to regenerating the natural environment while honoring biodiversity. Rather than presenting the human experience as the goal of design, transpecies design takes the inextricable linkages connecting living things as both its starting point and end goal. As such, it moves beyond human experience serving as the fundamental ingredient for making better design processes and decisions. This book is essential reading for artists, designers, and architects, as well as students of architecture, landscape architecture, interior architecture, art, product design, urban design, planning, environmental philosophy, and cultural studies.

This book comes from a desire to understand the Foundation courses as they exist today. 72 short assignments from around the world offer a reflection of current concerns, experiments, and ideas from artists, designers, educators and historians -- the methods, skills, approaches, and key insights that working artists and teachers consider crucial to teaching in the twenty-first century. This book brings together exercises related to a two-part conference called 'A History Uncovered; A Future Imagined: The Foundation Course in Art and Design,' a collaboration between 'Art School Educated,' Tate Research and Paris College of Art held in London and Paris in June 2013. Intended as a practical source book for teachers, students, and anyone curious to try."--Book jacket.
Download or read book Understanding by Design written by Grant P. Wiggins and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2005 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is understanding and how does it differ from knowledge? How can we determine the big ideas worth understanding? Why is understanding an important teaching goal, and how do we know when students have attained it? How can we create a rigorous and engaging curriculum that focuses on understanding and leads to improved student performance in today's high-stakes, standards-based environment? Authors Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe answer these and many other questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998, the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum, assessment, and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core, the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key ideas as essential questions and transfer tasks. Readers will learn why the familiar coverage- and activity-based approaches to curriculum design fall short, and how a focus on the six facets of understanding can enrich student learning. With an expanded array of practical strategies, tools, and examples from all subject areas, the book demonstrates how the research-based principles of Understanding by Design apply to district frameworks as well as to individual units of curriculum. Combining provocative ideas, thoughtful analysis, and tested approaches, this new edition of Understanding by Design offers teacher-designers a clear path to the creation of curriculum that ensures better learning and a more stimulating experience for students and teachers alike.
Download or read book Design Education written by Philippa Lyon and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embracing the richness, complexity and possibilities of learning and teaching in design, Design Education takes the vantage point of the 'outsider' and explores what makes design so compulsively fascinating for those who teach and study it. Through more than 40 projects, from design students' use of archives and museum collections to the potential of specific technologies to enhance teaching and learning, from architecture and 3D design to fashion, Philippa Lyon explores aspects of learning and teaching in higher education design subjects. Taking an ethnographic approach and using data from interviews, discussions and observations, the book also examines issues such as the experience of design teacher-practitioners entering the world of learning and teaching research for the first time. Design Education encapsulates and analyzes the research findings facilitated by the UK-based Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning Through Design. It delves into many pedagogical terms and assumptions and guides the reader through them, examining the way relevant key concepts in design are articulated. It will be useful to teachers and students of design subjects, learning and interpretation staff in museums, pedagogical researchers, other centres for excellence in teaching and learning (particularly those which are art and design-related), independent design practitioners and managers of art and design provision in the public and private sector.
Download or read book Recent Trends in Educational Technology and Administration written by Srikanta Patnaik and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The management of an educational system is referred to as educational administration. It includes providing leadership for student education, establishing curriculum, carrying out assessments, and managing people and material resources to reach certain goals. It also includes the management of processes within a school system to ensure specific outcomes are achieved. Moreover, educational administration is critical because it allows schools to present opportunities for students to study. As technological advancements drive digital transformation and globalization, teachers may assist students in acquiring the technological skills needed to succeed in future careers. Also, the significance of integrating technology in education administration is to efficiently reach more students and facilitate customized learning through MOOCs, Virtual classrooms, video courses and augmented reality (AR) etc. It not only helps in imparting education but also helps in monitoring the student performance by collecting respective data. This book approaches Educational Technology & Administration while keeping in view these requirements. It not only identifies the gaps in existing educational policies but also suggests new research directions to make the teaching-learning procedure more efficient, accessible and easier. It further recommends development of new innovative policies, practices and reforms encouraging the scope of experimentation while ensuring quality. This book is targeted towards educators working closely in this field, researchers, policy makers and academic administrators working collaboratively towards the enhancement of the education system.
Download or read book Performing Archives Archives of Performance written by Gunhild Borggreen and published by Museum Tusculanum Press. This book was released on 2013-07-12 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performing Archives/Archives of Performance contributes to the ongoing critical discussions of performance and its disappearance, of the ephemeral and its reproduction, of archives and mediatized recordings of liveness. The many contributions by excellent scholars and artists from a broad range of interdisciplinary fields as well as from various locations in research geographies demonstrate that despite the extensive discourse on the relationship between performance and the archive, inquiry into the productive tensions between ephemerality and permanence is by no means outdated or exhausted. New ways of understanding archives, history, and memory emerge and address theories of enactment and intervention, while concepts of performance constantly proliferate and enable a critical focus on archival residue. The contributions in Performing Archives/Archives of Performance cover philosophical inquiries as well as discussions of specific art works, performances, and archives.
