This edited volume explores the role of arts and meditation within
educational settings, and looks in particular at the preventive and
developmental function of the arts in educational contexts through
different theoretical perspectives. Encompassing research from an
array of disciplines including theatre, psychology, neuroscience,
music, psychiatry, and mindfulness, the book draws insights
relevant to a broad spectrum of interdisciplinary fields. Chapters
are divided into thematic sections, each outlining praxes and
emphasising how educating within and through the arts can provide
tools for critical thinking, creativity and a sense of agency,
consequently fulfilling the need of well-being and contributing
towards human flourishing. Ultimately, the book focuses on the role
the arts have played in our understanding of physical and mental
health, and demonstrates the new-found significance of the
discipline in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. With its
interdisciplinary and timely nature, this book will be essential
reading for scholars, academics, and post-graduate researchers in
the field of arts education, creative therapies, neuroscience,
psychology, and mindfulness.
Arts-Based Methods in Education Around the World aims to
investigate arts-based encounters in educational settings in
response to a global need for studies that connect the cultural,
inter-cultural, cross-cultural, and global elements of arts-based
methods in education. In this extraordinary collection,
contributions are collected from experts all over the world and
involve a multiplicity of arts genres and traditions. These
contributions bring together diverse cultural and educational
perspectives and include a large variety of artistic genres and
research methodologies. The topics covered in the book range from
policies to pedagogies, from social impact to philosophical
conceptualisations. They are informative on specific topics, but
also offer a clear monitoring of the ways in which the general
attention to the arts in education evolves through time.
This thematic volume explores the relationship between the arts and
learning in various educational contexts and across cultures, but
with a focus on higher education and organizational learning.
Arts-based interventions are at the heart of this volume, which
addresses how they are conceived, designed, carried out, and
assessed in different higher educational and cultural contexts.
Readers will discover diverse perspectives of the contributing
authors from across the world and from a variety of settings:
formal education, informal learning for adults and organisational
learning. A necessary introductory conceptualisation sets the stage
for the discussion of the different cases, with chapters presented
according to the art forms the address: performing arts, dance,
music, language arts, visual arts, multi-arts and a conclusive
chapter on future perspectives for arts-based educational
approaches. Arts-based Methods and Organisational Learning: Higher
Education Around the World will inspire and inform both scholars
and practitioners who are dealing with the arts in education and
organisations.
This book considers the pedagogy of the theatre laboratory,
focusing on seminal theatre group Odin Teatret. It provides a
detailed discussion of the historical background to theatre
laboratories, including their conception, before moving on to
specific examples of how the work at Odin Teatret crosscuts
creativity, pedagogy, and research practices. The book draws on a
range of insightful sources, including historical readings and
previous literature, interviews with members of the theatre group,
autoethnographic pieces, and personal experiences. Its unique
narrative brings fresh insights into how to establish inquiry-based
learning laboratories, in order to re-think higher education. It
will be an invaluable resource for students and academics working
on performance, creativity studies and pedagogy.

"Tatiana Chemis book is consistent in its argumentation and
comprehensive in regards to the subject it deals with. It results
in an original contribution, as it brings together the different
aspects of the "comic experience" Samuel Beckett had, discussing
them at the different stages of his literary, dramatic, and
cinematographic production." -- Giancario Alfano, Associate
Professor in Literature, Second University of Napoli, Italy

All children, regardless of age, gender, geographical and social
background, whether they are well functioning or mentally disabled,
thrive under the same conditions for well-being, and learn if they
thrive. The challenges that our society is experiencing, make
creativity and job satisfaction basic needs that we cannot ignore.
This book is aimed primarily at the creative school and its brave
defenders in a joint effort to continue to further develop the
well-functioning elements and find new creative ways to meet our
childrens needs for learning, development, confidence and
positivity. The purpose of this book is to inspire the teachers who
believe that creativity should be a central focus in school, and
that artistic creativity can greatly contribute to a more creative
and reflective school. This inspiration is offered in the form of
cases and examples illustrating the significant benefits that the
integration of arts in teaching offers, such as positive emotions
and cognitive intensity, but also in terms of concrete, effective
practical tools.
Throughout the literature of creative learning, many assumptions
and even stereotypes about the artists' creativity are nurtured,
often according to myths going back to the Romanticism. The authors
have been investigating and describing outstanding artists'
creativity and learning/working processes, asking the question: how
do artists create, learn, and organise their work? This book
explores these questions by means of original empirical data
(interviews with 22 artists) and theoretical research in the field
of the arts and creativity from a learning perspective. Findings
shed an original light on how artists learn and create, and how
their creative learning and change processes come about, for
instance when facilitating and leading creative processes.
