ARU 541 - TEACH CONTEMP ART ISSUES

Institution:

Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Art Education

Description:

This course is designed specifically for art teachers in the field but also is well suited for any graduate student interested in contemporary art and issues. This course exposes teachers to the work of contemporary artists and explores meanings generated from the content of the work in order to make connections to current issues and how that can inform and guide our teaching practices in the art classroom. Instruction includes readings, discussion, lecture, slide/video presentations, on-site visits to galleries/museums/artist studios, and developing units of instruction that are put into practice as the semester unfolds. Integrating art with other subject areas is encouraged for connected learning. Course assignments are expected to align with the teacher's current levels of teaching (elementary, middle/junior high, high school). No prerequisite required. Repeatable up to 9 credits.
