The teaching of the arts and literacy in schools is often at odds
with one another. The desire for schools to improve results on
high-stakes testing can lead to a narrow view of literacy rather
than one that acknowledges the unique and distinct literacies that
exist in other curriculum areas including the arts. With methods of
communication becoming increasingly complex, it will be more and
more important for students to be able to utilise all semiotic
modes. Developing Literacy and the Arts in Schools investigates
this key issue in education and offers a solution to the negative
relationship between the arts and literacy. Drawing on interview
data and evidence from diverse classrooms, it explores the
pedagogies of effective arts practitioners and teachers, and how
they relate to theoretical frameworks, to unpack the key elements
of effective practice related to literacy and the arts. A model of
arts-literacies is provided to assist arts and literacy educators
in developing a common language that acknowledges and values these
distinct arts-literacies. Themes of multimodality, diversity,
aesthetics and reflection in relation to the arts and literacy are
foregrounded throughout. This book will be of great value to
postgraduate students of Education specialising in arts and
literacy, education academics, teacher educators, and classroom and
preservice teachers.
