ARTS EDUCATION

ARTSEDGE

The National Arts and Education Information Network. The mission of ARTSEDGE is to help artists, teachers, and students gain access to and/or share information, resources, and ideas that support the arts as a core subject area in the K-12 curriculum.

ArtsEdNet

This five-year, $15-million effort to reform education in and through the arts is being supported by grants from the Annenberg Foundation, the Getty Education Institute, and other private and public sources.

Association for the Advancement of Arts Education

The AAAE is the direct result of a comprehensive two-year study which surveyed hundreds of superintendents, principals, teachers, parents, school board members, artists, professional arts administrators and community leaders regarding their views on arts education. The study found a positive element for change in arts education priorities and programs in the Cincinnati area. Constituencies expressed strong consensus on two key issues: development, implementation of arts curricula and school reform strategies, and the measurement of student achievement in the Arts Partner Schools.

Cultural Arts Resources for Teachers and Students

A collaborative Web site, CARTS is an interactive place for sharing questions and ideas about strengthening relationships between school and community; an online clearinghouse for national and regional resources related to folklore and traditional arts; and it's a site that hosts online educational events, such as interviews with traditional artists and teacher workshops. We'd like to cultivate a network of educators students, folklorists, and folk artists to foster sustained dialogue, classroom projects, teacher training, and online interactions with regional artists who might otherwise be unavailable to you. In short, CARTS provides a range of services that support educators, students, and community members in their efforts to incorporate folk arts, folklore, oral history, and community culture into K-12 education across the disciplines.

North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts (NTIEVA)

One of six regional consortia initially established by the Getty Education Institute for the Arts.

DBAE is a comprehensive approach to learning in art that centers instruction on works of art and derives content from four foundation art disciplines that contribute to the creation, understanding and appreciation of art: art production, art history, art criticism and aesthetics.
