This book invites readers to consider the possibilities for
learning and growth when artists and arts educators come into a
classroom and work with teachers to engage students in drama,
dance, visual art, music, and media arts. It is a nuts-and-bolts
guide to arts integration, across the curriculum in grades K-12,
describing how students, teachers, and artists "get started" with
arts integration, "work through" classroom curriculum involving the
arts, and "go beyond" the typical "unit" to engage in the arts
throughout the school year. The framework is based on six years of
arts integration in the Chicago Arts Partnerships in Education
(CAPE).
"Renaissance in the Classroom: "
*fully explains the planning, implementation, and assessment
processes in arts integration;
*frames arts integration in the larger context of curriculum
integration, problem-based learning, and the multiple
intelligences;
*provides the theoretical frameworks that connect standards-based
instruction to innovative teaching and learning, and embeds arts
education in the larger issue of whole school improvement;
*blends a description of the arts integration process with
personal stories, anecdotes, and impressions of those involved,
with a wealth of examples from diverse cultural backgrounds;
*tells the stories of arts integration from the classroom to the
school level and introduces the dynamics of arts partnerships in
communities that connect arts organizations, schools, and
neighborhoods;
*offers a variety of resources for engaging the arts--either as an
individual teacher or within a partnership; and
*includes a color insert that illustrates the work teachers,
students, and artists have done in arts integration schools and an
extensive appendix of tools, instruments, Web site, contacts, and
curriculum ideas for immediate use.
Of primary interest to K-12 classroom teachers, arts specialists,
and visiting artists who work with young people in schools or
community arts organizations, this book is also highly relevant and
useful for policymakers, arts partnerships, administrators, and
parents.
