Training
The arts are transformative tools for engaging learners. That’s why the Institute for Arts-Infused Education training focuses on methodology and pedagogy of integrating arts across the curriculum. This teaching strategies professional development is based on the following core concepts:
-
Inquiry-based training: Participants examine and problem-solve using hands-on experiences to achieve chosen curricular goals and are given tools to bring into their classrooms.
-
Interactive learning: Our training creates a learning community among participants and demonstrates the process of building learning communities in classrooms.
-
Sharing authority: These sessions help teachers uncover areas in their curriculum appropriate for sharing authority with students while reaching curricular goals and maintaining classroom order.
-
Reflective practice: These programs demonstrate the process of integrating reflective practice in daily lesson plans, which assists in students’ deeper understanding of content.
