What you’ll be able to do

  • Explore art education careers through observing and interviewing art educators, reflecting on their own developing teacher identities, and identifying art and education internship, job, and volunteer opportunities in the community.

  • Experiment with a range of 2D and 3D media techniques and processes, and identify associated concepts and vocabulary to inform the development of art and art-integrated curriculum appropriate for k-8 populations.

  • Create developmentally and culturally appropriate art curriculum for k-8 afterschool programs in Madison (i.e. basic lesson planning, including writing learning objectives, lesson sequencing, and structuring effective demonstrations, material management and clean up).

  • Employ a variety of instructional strategies to engage students in conversations about art and relevant art making experiences and implement simple pre and post-instruction assessments to gather data on student learning.
