Teaching and Learning in Art Education
Cultivating Students’ Potential from Pre-K through High School
Second Edition
Welcome!
Teaching and Learning in Art Education provides proven tips and innovative methods for teaching, managing, and assessing all aspects of art instruction and student learning in today’s diversified Pre-K-12 educational settings. This second edition introduces an original transformative art education framework to guide teaching and learning through culturally-responsive practices, supported by multimodal art inquiry tasks, artistic behaviors, and engaging instructional resources. Esteeming teacher and student agency, its framework cultivates insightful transformations by harnessing the visual arts’ unique strengths to deepen understandings, promote growth, and foster empathy, thereby enhancing personal, group, and community well-being. New to this edition is an increased focus on transdisciplinary teaching and science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) integration, how to discuss controversial or divisive topics, and contemporary impacts that affect classroom management for art educators.
