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.
