EDU 406 - Arts Integration in Education

Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 2
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 2

This course is based on the principle that integrating art, music, and theatre within math, science, social studies, and literacy instruction provides a chance to encounter these fields in ways where imagination, creativity, and design play a significant and motivating role. Utilizing the core concepts of the Kennedy Center for the Arts’ CETA [Changing Education Through the Arts], arts integration is understood as vital for elementary students in experiencing the curriculum as an opening to possibility. Multiple mediums will be explored such as music, drama, poetry, sculpture, puppetry, and painting; but the focus of the class will be on how artistic activity can significantly enhance the student experience within the elementary curriculum.

Offered Fall

Prerequisite(s): Senior Status and Division of Education major
