True Student Creativity in Art and Music Education
Visual and performing arts are said to be some of the most creative disciplines in education. Fostering true student creativity, however, can be challenging. Time constraints, pullouts for services, and scheduling conflicts all make it difficult for arts educators to move past concert or art show "prep.” Join us to explore ways to embed student-centered creativity into your existing curriculum and scheduling constraints. You will not need to "reinvent the wheel,” just give your current practice an upgrade!
