How Does The Artist Teacher Successfully Negotiate Being Both Artist And Teacher?, Marie Withers Apr 2019

How Does The Artist Teacher Successfully Negotiate Being Both Artist And Teacher?, Marie Withers

Theses and Dissertations

Around water coolers, faculty rooms, and classroom corners, art teachers discuss their concerns about maintaining a balance between making, teaching, and studying art. Research indicates there are advantages and disadvantages to commingling these activities, and about how these activities inform each other. The purpose of this study is to not only research what has been written, but also discover through interviews, using a narrative inquiry/case study approach, what living, breathing artist teachers are doing to that allows them to take advantage of the symbiotic nature of making, teaching, and studying art.


Cross-Culture Research: Comparison Between Chinese And American Art Education, Ye Liang Mar 2019

Cross-Culture Research: Comparison Between Chinese And American Art Education, Ye Liang

Theses and Dissertations

Education systems in China and the United States are very different. Chinese educator Hong Wang compared the two education systems and came to a conclusion: Chinese education wins in the starting point, while American education wins in the end point (Cheng, 2014). Chinese students learn more things, take challenging courses, and do well in academic accomplishment. However, examination-oriented methods in the Chinese education system may kill students’ interest in learning. Even though Chinese students learned fast in the starting points, they failed in the terminal points as they lost their interest in learning (Chen, 2014). Many educators and scholars think …


“Light Athletics” Socio-Economic Dissonance In Post-Revolution Ukraine, John Ballif, Daniel Barney Sep 2018

“Light Athletics” Socio-Economic Dissonance In Post-Revolution Ukraine, John Ballif, Daniel Barney

Journal of Undergraduate Research

In the wake of Ukraine’s Euromaidan revolution in 2014, Ukraine has struggled to reconcile its deep-rooted sense of tradition with increasingly westernized aims. After deposing authoritarian president, Viktor Yanokovich, the Ukrainian people now experience a cultural identity crisis paralleled only by the aftermath of the collapse of the Soviet Union. This is an urgent narrative that has received little attention from Western media and academia. In the summer of 2016, I spent three months documenting, with photographs, the socio-economic implications of Ukraine’s revolution. My findings, both photographs and short essays, were then sorted, edited, and contextualized in the making of …


Nceca Presentation, Lindsey Jensen, Tara Carpenter Sep 2018

Nceca Presentation, Lindsey Jensen, Tara Carpenter

Journal of Undergraduate Research

Tara Carpenter and I traveled to Portland and led a discussion with about 50 people at the National Ceramic Education Association. We researched the trend of unskilled ceramic artwork that has been happening in the art world lately. Conceptual work that is done by someone who has no real knowledge of ceramics is more prevalent in galleries than skilled ceramic art. Ceramics is in a weird place between art and craft and often times schools get caught in the middle. We e-mailed and interviewed 30 teachers on their opinions of this topic as well as how they incorporate conceptual art …


Walking In Iceland: The Relationship Between Human Physical Limits And Our Sublime Experience In The Landscape, Kathy Bill, Daniel T. Barney Jun 2018

Walking In Iceland: The Relationship Between Human Physical Limits And Our Sublime Experience In The Landscape, Kathy Bill, Daniel T. Barney

Journal of Undergraduate Research

I remember being obsessed with walking my last year of high school. I would wake up early once a week and start to walk the same path the city bus would take with the hope of one day being able to walk the whole way without having to take the bus. I would walk alone. No music. Just me and my thoughts. The pace of life seemed to slow down as the sun would rise. I noticed things I had never seen before. I was more aware of my body. I was more aware of nature and what it had …


Cultural Celebration And Exchange In Mongolia: An Artistic Inquiry Of Community And Tradition, Sarah Waldron, Daniel T. Barney Jan 2016

Cultural Celebration And Exchange In Mongolia: An Artistic Inquiry Of Community And Tradition, Sarah Waldron, Daniel T. Barney

Journal of Undergraduate Research

After spending time in Switzerland with Mongolian immigrants back in 2012, I became interested in their culture and heritage. I attended several events with my Mongolian friends in Switzerland, most notably a cultural event in the summer time called Naadam, or what we describe in English as the festival of three manly sports. Although their customs and traditions differ from mine, I noticed that we share many common values. I recognized in these people a familiar sensitivity to areas such as: family, pilgrimage, community, language, spirituality, and service. All of these areas correspond with my ideas, and also those promoted …

Advanced Placement Portfolio, Daniel Barney, Mark Graham

Journal of Undergraduate Research

The academic objectives of this research project reached further than the initial objectives. We believe it was a very successful project in terms of meeting our academic objectives. The study affected our curricula here at the university as we investigated our thesis questions for this project. We (Dr. Barney and Dr. Graham) primarily teach undergraduates who are interested in teaching art at the K-­‐12 levels and so there is a strong focus on what is important to know and teach at the K-­‐12 levels. AP Art Studio programs are directed at 11th and 12th graders while foundations programs are usually …
