Both a practitioner's guide and a school reform model, the new edition of this popular book shares exemplary arts-integration practices across the K-8 curriculum.

This article explores the critical potential of theatre practice as research in interdisciplinary environmental contexts.

Mathematics remains a gatekeeper in schools; educators and researchers must carefully consider how diverse mathematical practices can be recognised and valued. To explore how math is recognised in the craft of weaving, which has been described as highly mathematical with roots in innovations by women, I interviewed 22 experienced weavers about…

In the early 1940s, Black artist Jacob Lawrence painted a series of 60 panels that are now collectively called "The Migration Series."

The emphasis on science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) disciplines in schools has caused advocates for art education to propose the addition of the arts to the study of STEM, transforming STEM into STEAM.

The book, "Creating Third Spaces of Learning for Post-Capitalism: Lessons from Educators, Artists and Activists" seeks to explore counter-hegemonic social spaces, or what some call third spaces (Anzaldua, 1987/2021; Bhabha, 1994/2002; Soja, 1996) that have been created largely by social, community and artistic activists to prefigure a…

One author of this article is a particle physics researcher; the other is an artist. Although they come from different sides of the spectrum of liberal arts, what they share in common is that they are both communicators and educators.

Education ethnographies show that observing bodies, objects and settings can illuminate previously hidden learning practices but the relational characteristics of these practices presents methodological challenges for conventional qualitative analyses.

In the field of arts-based research, collaboration between social scientists and artists is critical.1Horsfall and Titchen state that "critical creativity as methodology disrupts traditional edges and enables participation of people in the research who are…

Based on interviews with five creative professionals this article looks to investigate the creative experience as a source of data on how educators might create space for enabling the creative process in the classroom. Looking toward professional artists who are also committed educators provides core commentary on how to maximise creative…

I further examine preexisting ways in which this artwork, focusing particularly on the Prinzhorn Collection,…
