3.00 Credits
Major theorists in the field of assessment will be studied. A specific focus will be developed around those theorists who address evaluation in the visual arts. The essential principles of art education as they relate to aesthetic assessment will be articulated. Techniques for evaluating the artistic process, appraising art, and assessing broad-based art content in relation to the goals of art education will be provided. Attention to curriculum and the design and implementation of evaluation instruments including content testing for assessment of affective and cognitive learning in art will be developed.
-
1.00 - 6.00 Credits
The particular needs of individual teachers, schools, districts, and/or intermediate units are addressed. The content deals specifically with identifying basic instructional problems and needs in the arts and analyzing current issues in art aesthetic education. Attention will be given to any multi-cultural influences which may need to be reflected in instructional planning. Emphasis will be placed on an examination of contending theories as they relate to those problems. Students will have the opportunity to design and implement strategies to meet individual program needs. Repeatable up to 9 credits.

3.00 Credits
This course will provide an introduction to the philosophy of differentiated instruction and address the complex challenges of engaging diverse learners. The theories, research, and assumptions underlying differentiation will be examined, and applied to the implementation of successful differentiated instruction. Students will gain expertise making practical and flexible instructional decisions that help create a standards-based learning environment where all students can thrive and achieve in and through arts.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces and examines educational theories, and practices as they are implemented in alternative educational settings such as non-school settings (e.g. correctional settings, retirement centers), non-traditional or non-public school settings (e.g. cyber schools, charter schools), alternative arts venues, museums, non-profit organizations and community-based organizations and alternative art venues in relationship to art education. A range of issues, strategies, perspectives and theories associated with teaching sites will be explored through reflection responses, critical/reading responses, field experience, and seminar discussions.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces and examines the history, theories, goals, and practices for integrating diverse disciplines with art education curriculum. The course offers exploration of meaningful, natural, and significant interdisciplinary or cross-disciplinary connections between art and no-art subjects. Through reflective responses, critical/reading responses, field experience, and seminar discussions the students will learn how to develop substantive connections between the arts and other subject areas and explore a range of issues, strategies, perspectives, theories, and resources associated with making interdisciplinary connections for teaching an integrated art curriculum.
-
3.00 Credits
Students will study the theory of curriculum and be involved with the construction of practical curricula. An analysis and redesign of art curricula of actual school situations will comprise a major aspect of the course. Contemporary curriculum models will provide a basis for making judgments of these curricula. Special attention will be given to the theoretical assumptions embedded in the Pennsylvania Department of Education Standards Aligned System.
-
3.00 Credits
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.
