Assignment Description
The purpose of this exercise is to synthesize and articulate important concepts that we have examined so far related to the arts learning field. The next stage of class will focus on applying these concepts (as you will in your midterm and final).
I use the term “Best Practices” to indicate practices that have emerged in the field that are generally agreed represent critical applications of theory to practice.
What does the literature and the field say about best practices related to each of the areas designated. You will provide 1-‐2 sentences that answer/address the question and/or topic, and provide specific references (using APA citations) from the readings, class discussion, and your own research. Look at this as your opportunity to synthesize your understanding of what we have read and discussed so far, and to assess your learning. You will use this and apply your knowledge of best practices to the development of your arts education plan or your research paper.
