10 Teaching and Learning Strategies in a Choice-Based Art Program

Nan Hathaway’s latest article, “10 Teaching and Learning Strategies in a “Choice-Based” Art Program 
appears in the September, 2008 issue of Arts & Activities. In the summary below, Nan describes her 
teaching for artistic behavior philosophy:

           In a choice-based art classroom, students are doing the authentic work of real artists every day. 
The focus is squarely on learning. It is acknowledged that all learners of all ages and at all levels can 
also take the role of teacher, and that teachers are also learners. The environment is carefully designed 
and appointed to facilitate for diverse learners and to provide multiple entry points.
The 10 teaching and 
learning strategies outlined here combine to form a multifaceted, elegant environment for student learning.
In this setting, individuality, flexibility, personal relevancy, independence and accountability are valued 
and supported.
