Description
(formerly Methods of Art Education)
The teacher candidate will study the developmental, socio-cultural, perceptual and cognitive changes that occur during adolescence with a view to how these transformations impact on artistic-aesthetic development. This course will couple the exploration of these theoretical strands with participation in hands-on art projects and processes that are appropriate for diverse (grades 7-12) middle school and high school students. Aesthetics, curriculum design, classroom management and diverse assessment practices will be examined. Integration of technology and the New York State Standards will be studied. Prerequisite: EDU 329 and EDU 330. Corequisite: EDU 369.
