Studio Thinking: The Real Benefits of Visual Arts Education
Studio Thinking: The Real Benefits of Visual Arts Education
As many of you know, our own Lois Hetland, Associate Professor of Art Education, is also a Research Associate at Project Zero at Harvard Graduate School of Education. In September 2007 her book (with co-authors Ellen Winner, Shirley Veenema, and Kimberly M. Sheridan) was published by Teachers College Press -it can be ordered at: http://www.teacherscollegepress.com/.
The result of in-depth research of the “habits of mind” that are instilled by studying visual art, Studio Thinking provides art teachers with a language for describing what they intend to teach and what students actually learn. This language will help advocates explain arts education to policymakers, help art teachers develop and refine their teaching and assessment practices, and help educators in other disciplines learn from existing practices in arts education.
