Katherine Douglas
Hilton Regent Parlor, 2nd Floor

Beyond Best Practice to NEXT Practice
Without experimental next practice, education doesn't progress. Current trends and innovations
occurring in art classrooms in Vermont (K-16) are highlighted as examples of investigational
approaches that advance next practice.
1:00-1:50 PM
Diane Jaquith
Data-rich, information-poor art programs miss the mark in critical and
creative thinking.
Learn simple action research assessments that reveal what your students
know, don't know, and
whether it really matters.

A Happy
Ending: The Marriage of Choice-Based Art and Special Education

share effective collaboration
for student success.
SUNDAY
10:00-10:50 AM
Anne Bedrick
The well-arranged choice art room can foster independence,
creativity, and responsibility.
But student choice without a carefully organized structure can feel
like chaos. Learn to set up
systems that consistently work.
