Greetings clayart folk,
I know many of you are educators, so I'm turning to you for a little
direction. I'm currently in grad school getting my k-12 Art Ed
certification, and I'm nearly done (hooray!)
I am writing an entire art curriculum for my secondary art ed class
(heaven only knows why...I feel like I am reinventing the wheel!) What
I am looking for is a good example of an art curriculum for the
highschool level that I can emulate. Some of you surely have good
curriculae that you have had a hand in creating or updating?
Please keep in mind that I have no interest in completely ripping off
someone else's work. I'm looking for a good structure or framework and
thus far the examples I have seen have been bureacratic drivel that have
lots of words but don't have much content.
Thanks so much for your help!
Diane

Hi Diane,
In response to a request on clayart, I'm in the process of accumulating
various clay curriculums to be shared amonst all those who are
interested. I am waiting a bit to make them publically available, because
I was hoping to have more sylabi to include (only two responses to this
project so far- thank you Lowell Baker and Debi Lampert-Rudman!).
If you want them *now* email me privately and I will forward to you what
I've got so far.
Good Luck!

Diane,
Have you looked at the curriculums on the ArtEdNet site?

I hope it helps.

Amazon lists 1157 books under Art Education so I couldn't look through them
to find the book many of my clients use which is a book that discusses each
age group in terms of cognitive and physical development -- what kinds of
art tasks can they handle (in a classroom of 40 kids and one teacher) at
each stage.
Howard Gardner's work on kinds of intelligence may also be good --he has one
devoted just to the arts and how the arts (and only the arts) develop
various cognitive abilities.
This kind of guideline may be much more interesting than a list of specific
projects.
Cruise Amazon "Art Education" until you find books you like and then follow
the "people who bought this book, also bought" links.
Sharon.

I think that the book you might want to look at is the Laura Chapman book.
Do not remember the name of it. but that is the one that discusses what
can be done at each age/stage of development. required for elementary
education art.

Sharon,
We just went through re writing our cirriculum guide for the district,
as soon as I locate it I'll send it to you. I think it is on disc, if
not I'll send you a hard copy. My h.s. teaches 5 classes of drawing, 6
classes of ceramics & 6 classes of photo. Mike Gordon
