Thinking Of The Frame Otherwise: Putting Art Education Into The Abyss Of The Real, Jan Jagodzinski
Thinking Of The Frame Otherwise: Putting Art Education Into The Abyss Of The Real, Jan Jagodzinski
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This paper argues against designer capitalism's perpetuation of consummatory experience- the 'oral-eye.' An attempt is made to introduce a form of 'psychoanalytic deconstruction,' as a strategy to retain a critical art education. I attempt this by examining two images on the covers of Art Education published in 1998. The argument was formulated in 1998 and presented at NAEA's millennium conference In Los Angeles.
Other(Wise): The Myth Of Wikipedia, Melanie L. Buffington
Other(Wise): The Myth Of Wikipedia, Melanie L. Buffington
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This article explores the theme of Other(wise) as it relates to Web 2.0 and newer forms of creating knowledge. Through a discussion of Web 2.0, wikis, and Wikipedia, I explore newer ways of thinking about a text. Wikis represent modern texts and require different approaches than traditional texts. As a field, we need to become active on Wikipedia to develop our presence in ways that represent the complexities of our field.

Editorial: Being Other(W)Ise, Wanda B. Knight
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
While traveling in England during Spring 2009, I had the opportunity to see the London production of the musical Wicked, a prequel to a cultural icon ingrained in our nation's psyche, the classic version of the The Wizard of Oz. Told from the perspective of the alleged wicked witch, Wicked celebrates the obvious notion; there is anOTHER side to the standard story. Most of us, at some point in our lives, can relate to being looked at as different or outsider, like the green-skinned, black-clad, smart, caring young lady, Elphaba, whom the Wizard's propaganda machine demonized as wicked. From the …
The Pedagopticon: Other Eyes In The 21 St Century Classroom, Robert W. Sweeny
The Pedagopticon: Other Eyes In The 21 St Century Classroom, Robert W. Sweeny
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The Pedagopticon is a revolutionary new technology that allows educators to do away with outdated methods of discipline and punishment. Fusing traditional optical equipment (eye, camera lens) with the latest in high-tech gear (digital camera, web linked connectivity), the 'Pedagopticon' is the future of teaching. It was once said that seasoned teachers had 'eyes in the back of their head.' Well, the scientists at 'technology is the devil' have taken this adage and made it real. Now, you can have eyes everywhere! No corner of your classroom is out of your gaze. The 'Pedagopticon' offers a full 360 degrees of …
The Space Between: Intersubjective Possibilities Of Transparency And Vulnerability In Art Education, Sara Wilson Mckay
The Space Between: Intersubjective Possibilities Of Transparency And Vulnerability In Art Education, Sara Wilson Mckay
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This paper argues for the pedagogical value of the pursuit of transparency and vulnerability in art education. The author defines transparency and vulnerability in the context of art, offering subsequent pedagogical examples of both. Possibilities are born through intersubjectivity and answerability, the Bakhtinian notion that considers "how shall I say [do] anything when the other can answer?" (Bakhtin, 1990; Nielsen, 2002). The author asserts that art educators should pursue an idea of transparency and encourage an open attitude toward vulnerability in their pedagogy to emphasize intersubjective relationships and social possibilities through art. The author discusses artwork by Kelli Connell and …
The Future Of Aesthetics In/And Visual Culture Art Education In 21st Century Art Education, Shannon Reibel
The Future Of Aesthetics In/And Visual Culture Art Education In 21st Century Art Education, Shannon Reibel
Theses and Dissertations
This grounded theory project researches and analyzes publications from 1990-2008 assessing the debate over aesthetics in/and VCAE in 21st century art education. Through a series of visual models, a working theory and its supporting evidence assess this contested subject. Within the context of Modern and Postmodern paradigm conflict, art educators’ debate over aesthetics in/and VCAE fundamentally deals with differing conceptions of identity and freedom. Although commonly sharing the goal of fostering the formation of student identity through the provision and exercise of freedom, art educators’ differing perspectives on identity and freedom result in differing prescriptions for 21st century art education. …
Art To Bring About Change: The Work Of Tyree Guyton, Melanie L. Buffington
Art To Bring About Change: The Work Of Tyree Guyton, Melanie L. Buffington
Art Education Publications
Public art takes many forms including commemorative sculptures, site-specific works, and collaborative murals. Additionally, public art can beautify an urban environment (Riley, 2005) or raise awareness of social issues in a manner similar to the AIDS quilt (Russell, 2004). Another possibility is that public works of art are a form of discourse and open conversations and dialogue. Such works of art can help communities work toward unity and empowerment (Hall, 1989; The Heidelberg Project, n.d.; Senie, 2006). As noted by Russell (2004) and Argiro (2004), studying public works of art can be an important part of art education. Tyree Guyton …
Six Themes In The History Of Art Museum Education, Melanie L. Buffington
Six Themes In The History Of Art Museum Education, Melanie L. Buffington
The Melanie Buffington Papers
This chapter explores six important themes in museum education: experimenting and responding to society; educating to improve society; delivering appropriate content; meeting school curricula and collaborating with teachers; improving practice with theory and research; and developing and implementing emerging technologies.
Contemporary Approaches To Critical Thinking And The World Wide Web, Melanie L. Buffington
Contemporary Approaches To Critical Thinking And The World Wide Web, Melanie L. Buffington
Art Education Publications
This article begins with a review of the history of critical thinking and some current ideas on the topic. Then, I explain my working description of critical thinking and how critical thinking is currently articulated in discussions of the WWW in schools. I conclude with ideas for teachers related to developing critical thinking in art classrooms using the WWW.
Editorial: Language Of Possibilities And Sense Of The 1m/Possible In Art Education, Wanda B. Knight, Bill Wightman
Editorial: Language Of Possibilities And Sense Of The 1m/Possible In Art Education, Wanda B. Knight, Bill Wightman
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Schooling in the United States is "increasingly defined by arthritic traditionalisms of standardized assessments and testing, school and teacher accountabilities, models of exacerbated efficiency and tracking, and even more strident state and federal calls for more of the same" (Kanpol, 1997, p. ix). Mired in escalating restricted conventional practices that deny humanistic and democratic possibilities, many art educators are frequently unaware of what, in reality, is possible with/in art/ education. Moreover, our praxis continues to reflect dispositions and actions that are oftentimes bereft of the language of possibility or hope. Using the language of possibility, we transform our thinking from …
Contamination Of Childhood Fairy Tale: Pre-Service Teachers Explore Gender And Race Constructions, Wan-Hsiang Chou
Contamination Of Childhood Fairy Tale: Pre-Service Teachers Explore Gender And Race Constructions, Wan-Hsiang Chou
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This study explores the possibilities of challenging European-American middle-class social codes perpetuated by fairy tales through creative writing and artmaking. For centuries, writers and artists have continued to create new versions of old tales. Critiquing through recreation of fairy tales can reveal biases of personal and cultural constructions of race and gender. Like authors and illustrators of children's books, 25 pre-service teachers were invited to "contaminate" fairy tales from their childhood, through which to become aware of metaphors they live by and explore where and how pre-existing codes entered their lives. Their retellings of traditional tales and accompanying illustrations show …
The Biodiesel Project: A High School Multi-Discipline Class Collaboration And Graphic Imaging Technology Unit Plan, Charles E. Cimo
The Biodiesel Project: A High School Multi-Discipline Class Collaboration And Graphic Imaging Technology Unit Plan, Charles E. Cimo
Theses and Dissertations
In this thesis project, my intention was to integrate diverse high school courses with poignant subject matter to increase the amount of learning students can achieve. This unit plan explored a Prince George High School (Virginia) multi-class cooperative effort involving biodiesel production. The project involved creating a biodiesel refinery built by Production Systems classes according to plans purchased from the Internet. The research for converting used kitchen oil into biodiesel and the titration of the fuel was conducted by Chemistry classes. Graphics Imaging Technology students created a logo, a poster, and designed brochures that described the processes and benefits of …
Technology At The Beginning Of The 21st Century: Using An Interactive Whiteboard In Elementary Art Education, Nancy G. Kocen
Technology At The Beginning Of The 21st Century: Using An Interactive Whiteboard In Elementary Art Education, Nancy G. Kocen
Theses and Dissertations
This study examined whether art lessons, provided using an Interactive Whiteboard (IWB), were effective in transferring learning to a diverse student population. The descriptive investigation focused on three main areas; the impact of the IWB on student learning, the time invested in integrating the IWB, and the compatibility of the IWB with my teaching style. The research took place over fourteen weeks starting in late August, 2006, and continued in my art room during the first quarter of the school year. Data were collected through daily journal entries, video taped lessons and interviews. Although long hours were required for training …

Pre-Service Possibilities: Reconsidering ''Art For The Elementary Educator", Melanie L. Buffington, Jodi Kushins
Pre-Service Possibilities: Reconsidering ''Art For The Elementary Educator", Melanie L. Buffington, Jodi Kushins
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
"Art for the Elementary Educator" courses are sites of possibility in the field of art education, particularly art education oriented toward curriculum integration and meaningful art experiences. Drawing on literature about "Art for the Elementary Educator" courses and our own teaching experiences we make recommendations for reconsidering possible futures for this course as related to the future of art education. We believe that this course, its students, instructors, and course materials are worthy of sustained attention by the art education community. Ultimately, we argue that art education appreciation and advocacy, concepts we define in our concluding remarks, should be primary …

Opening The Door To Possibilities: Research Journals In Pre-Service Art Education, Debrah Sickler-Voight
Opening The Door To Possibilities: Research Journals In Pre-Service Art Education, Debrah Sickler-Voight
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Preparing to be an art educator is a time when future teachers anticipate the endless possibilities the profession has to offer. Unfortunately, many leave teaching within a few years of service because of lack of support and preparation. This qualitative study investigates how preservice art education students enrolled in their first university art education course used the Art for Life method to create research journals. The research question that guided this study is: What themes drive student research journals and how does the exploration of these themes espouse preservice art education? After coding student journals, I discovered three majors themes …

Plazabilities For Art Education: Community As Participant, Collaborator & Curator, Kathleen Keys
Plazabilities For Art Education: Community As Participant, Collaborator & Curator, Kathleen Keys
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
In the following article, a plaza metaphor and theories of plazability are applied to the recent work of three "Other" art educators to acknowledge, examine and articulate a refreshed vision for an art education based in community pedagogy which expands possibilities, builds community, and uses art to work for social change. Examples suggesting such achievements in creating plazability include work from a community artist backed by a visionary community arts foundation, a progressive cultural museum director and staff, and a contemporary artist each actively engaging the community in diverse ways. The innovative and community grounded practice and philosophies of these …
Art Education In An Age Of Teletechnology: On The Impossibility Of Portraiture, Jan Jagodzinski
Art Education In An Age Of Teletechnology: On The Impossibility Of Portraiture, Jan Jagodzinski
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Art since the Renaissance has been obsessed with the portrait and defined by it as the form of representation made even more iconic through the invention of photography where the notion of the profile became established as a sign of prosperity, prestige and power (Sekula, 1986). This enlightenment tradition of portraiture is not likely to perish at any given future date; the digitalization of the image continues to make the banal snap-shot proliferate at such an incredible rate identifying the thirst for personal representation in contemporary society. The explosion of celebrity magazines, the spread of the paparazzi, and the easy …
Maya Paintings As Teachers Of Justice: Art Making The Impossible Possible, Kryssi Staikidis
Maya Paintings As Teachers Of Justice: Art Making The Impossible Possible, Kryssi Staikidis
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This article examines Maya paintings as historical documents, political platforms and conduits for cultural transmission in two local Maya communities. Particular attention is paid to the recent history of genocide of Maya peoples in Guatemala and the production of paintings as visual reminders of cultural loss and regeneration, as well as visual means to protect Maya future generations. Collaborative ethnography and decolonizing methodologies (Lassiter, 1998; Tuhiwai-Smith, 1999) are used in this study; thus, Maya artists speak through written dialogues and interviews in first voice regarding massacres that were kept clandestine for three decades. This paper addresses the potential and capacity …
Differentiated Educational Strategies In The Elementary Art Classroom, Mary Amber Bush
Differentiated Educational Strategies In The Elementary Art Classroom, Mary Amber Bush
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis provides elementary art teachers strategies for teaching lessons in a method called "differentiation". The purpose of differentiation is to tailor lesson plans to try and meet unique needs of the students. Lessons can be differentiated through content, process, or product. A teacher may choose one of these three areas and provide different approaches to the lesson to meet different learning needs of the students. To meet different learning needs in an efficient way, students are grouped for lessons based on their readiness, interests, or their learning styles. This thesis provides greater detail on content, process, product, readiness, interests, …

E(Raced) Bodies In And Out Of Sight/Cite/Site, Wanda B. Knight
E(Raced) Bodies In And Out Of Sight/Cite/Site, Wanda B. Knight
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
In the social sphere there are numerous unmarked and unexamined categories. Heterosexuality, maleness, and middle classness are some of the apparent ones. However, Whiteness is perhaps the foremost unmarked and thus unexamined category in art education. And like other unmarked categories, White is assumed to be the human norm. Moreover, when Whiteness goes unexamined, racial privilege associated with Whiteness goes unacknowledged. In this article, I use the metaphor of sight or vision to examine race through a framework of bodies. My focus is, specifically, on the preparation of the authoritative White body of the art teacher to teach in classrooms …

Deconstructing The Frame: Siting Absence, Jason Wallin
Deconstructing The Frame: Siting Absence, Jason Wallin
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Our contemporary social landscape is increasingly inscribed and articulated through images. With the proliferation of televisual mediums, the image has become the primary vehicle mediating social relationships, impinging on our experience of both self and other (Debord, 1978). As Virilio (2002) avers, the drive of capitalism seeks to appropriate the imagistic code as a bid for mastery over the symbolic order. In this manner, the media/ted images that flood the social terrain are often cites of ideological del sign. In other words, signs are often ideologically 'stabilized' as connotations of other signs, forming an abstract, positive calculus of signification. In …

Multicultural Reservations, Hybrid Avenues: Reflecting On Culture In Art Education, David Gall
Multicultural Reservations, Hybrid Avenues: Reflecting On Culture In Art Education, David Gall
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This paper examines the role of hybridity in culture as it relates to art education. Curriculum strategies in art education are based essentially on pluralist premises. Such strategies recognize diversity, honor differences, and try to redress the inequitable Eurocentric models of the past. Nevertheless, even in their most critical forms they reproduce a scheme of culture that subtly confirms the established order of Modern hierarchies, and fail to capture the fluid, hybrid, and uneven character of culture. Margaret Archer's theories of culture, society, and change are among the most insightful to date. Taking them on board will ensure that our …
