This course will prepare art educators to integrate the National Core Art Standards into their daily teaching practices. Coursework will facilitate art educators’ understanding of how to support students’ journeys through the artistic processes of creating, presenting, responding, and connecting. They will apply the NCAS to a new lesson plan that focuses on supporting their students’ authentic investigations.
Art educator participants will have the opportunity to experience three community studio visits that will include: Quad City Arts’ Visiting Artist, Mark Hirsch, St. Ambrose Printmaking Department with Joseph Lappie, and Big River Bindery with Andrew Huot.
In addition to creating art and connecting with 3 community resources that will support teaching artists and their students, participants will explore the teaching methods of Professor Linda Barry while keeping a sketchbook journal and completing written reflections as documentations of their investigations and discoveries.
