Highlighting the ways that digital media can be used in interdisciplinary curriculum, "Images and Identity "brings together ideas from art and citizenship teachers in the Czech Republic, Germany, Ireland, Malta, Portugal, and the United Kingdom on producing online curriculum materials. This book offers a practical strategy for ways these different, but related, subjects can be taught. The first part of the book explores issues of art and citizenship education within a European context while the second contains case studies of curriculum experiments that can be applied to global classrooms. It will be of great interest to students and teachers of art and citizenship education.

Although art is taught around the world, art education policies and practices vary widely--and the opportunities for teachers to exchange information are few. "International Dialogues about Visual Culture, Education, and Art "brings together diverse perspectives on teaching art to forge a comprehensive understanding of the challenges facing art educators in every country. This comprehensive, authoritative volume examines global views on education policy, discusses new trends in critical pedagogy, introduces new technologies available to educators, investigates community art projects, and shows how art education can be used for peace activism.
