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.
