Teaching Washington State History Through The Arts: A Curricular Guide, Rebekah Norgard

The purpose of this project was to encourage the integration of arts into core subjects and provide a framework and examples of effective arts content infusion as an instructional strategy for use by Washington State History teachers.

Selected Experiences And Teaching Procedures, Using Clay As A Medium, For Developing Creativity In The Nine-To-Eleven Year-Old, Linda Claire Hohn

Understanding Modern Art., John Kenneth Davis
Understanding Modern Art., John Kenneth Davis
All Master's Theses
This study was motivated by the Author’s frequent experience of being questioned as to the everyday functional values of modern art and its purpose in relation to the betterment of individual and group living. The inability to present reasonable and concrete factors in a saleable capacity instigated a desire to conduct research in the interest of self enlightenment and the promotion toward a better understanding of our contemporary unfamiliar art. This leads directly into the problems of this study; how can society better understand modern art as a functional value in everyday living?
Art And The New Leisure, Pauline Johnson
Art And The New Leisure, Pauline Johnson
All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies
The new order into which society has been placed during recent months produces problems which were unthought of before that time, and perhaps the greatest of these problems is the one which has to do with the creation of surplus time for the worker. Rightly controlled this will add to the happiness and welfare not only of the person concerned but to civilization as a whole. This need will be met in many ways--through sports, amusements, self-development, etc., but I wonder how many have realized the place that fine arts can be made to fill at this time.
