Description
Improving Teaching and Learning in the Arts by Callaway, Gloria; Kear, Mary This book explores the role of arts in children's learning, covering subjects from Art and Design to Drama and Music. It examines the state of arts in primary schools and evaluates the relationships between the arts and broader values such as morality, spirituality, culture, and social issues. The authors consider each subject within the arts curriculum separately, highlighting general and specific challenges faced by class teachers. They also address the issue of assessment, recording, and reporting, offering strategies for responding to children's work and accumulating evidence for assessment purposes. By considering these key areas, this book provides valuable insights into improving teaching and learning in the arts, making it a useful resource for educators and policymakers.
