Why teach Art?
History of Art Education in the US
Next
1960’s and 1970’s: The “arts in education” movement believes that art is an “experience” that can be achieved through process participation and rejects art that is regimented. Federal and state funding for arts education increased and enrolment in high school art classes peaked.
1947: The National Art Education Association was founded. This is the leading professional membership organization exclusively for visual arts teachers, and its mission is to advance visual arts education to fulfill human potential and promote global understanding ("National art education" )
1912: Alfred Stiegliz puts children’s artwork on display in his New York gallery, recognizing them as artists (Greenough, 2000)
1903:Binney and Smith introduced the first Crayola crayons in a box of eight colors after noticing a need for safe, high quality, and affordable wax crayons (“Crayola”)
Early 20th Century: John Dewey experimented with a new approach called “Progressive Education.” He believed that art education was a foundational part of curriculum because it developed creativity, self-expression, and an appreciation of the expression of others (Heilig, Cole & Angelica, 2010)
1883: The National Educational Association creates an art department that gives teachers ideas and guidelines to teach art in the classroom. By the late 19th century, students learned to appreciate the arts through “Picture Study” and practiced hand-eye coordination through drafting
and drawing (Smith, 1996)
Art education in the United States has had both advancements and setbacks from the Late 19th Century to the present

2002: Congress passed No Child Left Behind which holds states accountable for English and math. Art is listed as part of the core curriculum, but states are not required to report on instruction time or assessment data (Pederson, 2007)
1994: Congress passed the “Goals 2000: Educate America Act,” the first federal legislation to identify arts as part of the core curriculum (Goals 2000: Educate America Act, 1994)
1994: The National Endowment for the Arts and the Department of Education created the National Voluntary K-12 Standards for the Arts, the first policy project of national scope (Heilig, Cole & Angelica, 2010)
1983: “A Nation at Risk: The Imperative for Educational Reform” is released by the Reagan administration and focused on science and math curriculum to make American students as competitive as their international counterparts (Smith, 1996)
1982: The Getty Center for Education in the Arts created Discipline Based Art Education (DBAE), which focused on a systematic and sequential program for studying art history, art criticism, aesthetics and art production. (Smith, 1996)

How is art taught? DBAE• Discipline-Based Art Education (DBAE) is a comprehensive
art education approach that has four components:– Production: Creating works of art– History: Encountering the historical and cultural background of
works of art – Aesthetics: Discovering the nature and philosophy of art– Criticism: making informed judgments about art
• A goal of DBAE is to integrate the arts into other subjects and to create a standardized evaluation process
• DBAE attempts to develop student’s ability to understand and appreciate art using knowledge of theories and contexts of art, and to respond to and create art

How is art taught? TAB• Teaching for Artistic Behaviors (TAB) is a choice-based art education
approach• Students are given a variety of materials and ample time and space
to respond to their own ideas and interests through their artwork– TAB art teachers often create “Centers” in the classroom for different
types of art. Ex. painting, drawing, printmaking, etc.– TAB teachers usually instruct students in each of the types of materials so
they have basic knowledge of how to use them. In TAB, teachers act as guides to student’s education
• TAB regards students as artists and encourages independent thinking
• Students are assessed on their perseverance, planning, experimenting, studio habits, and progress

One of three “centers” in Ms. C’s art class at South Loop
Elementary. Students could choose between painting,
drawing, and weaving.
A 2nd grade student’s WOW piece. Ms. C had students
choose two pieces per quarter that they were
proud of. They were required to describe their artwork, how they made
it , and where they got the idea

Art Integration
Next
This poster integrates the arts into a
Language Arts lesson. Each picture
represents a type of figurative language.
Often art teachers are expected to integrate other subjects (math,
language arts, science) into their lessons to reinforce the core subjects. I believe that teaching other subjects through the arts gets students more
excited about learning. But, we need to be careful not to downplay the importance of the arts in and of
themselves.

How do you define objectives?
How do you make an assessment
• Reference your objective; how will you measure what you want students to learn?
• Self-grading rubrics are helpful– Rubistar– Other online tools
