Artists in Schools

Launched at the Arts Sector Briefing in November 2006 and distributed to all public schools in February 2007, Artists in Schools: The ArtsEdge guide for artists and teachers in Western Australia 07-08 is a practical resource for artists and teachers to use in partnership when developing artists in schools programs.

Artists in schools programs offer new and exciting ways of teaching and learning.  Students, teachers and artists can grow through these creative partnerships and develop new skills and understandings. The innovative aspects of many programs also have potential to draw together the different Learning Areas of the Curriculum Framework and link the classroom with the professional arts world and local community.

 

Developed in conjunction with the WA Deparment of Education and Training, the Artists in Schools Guide has information on funding, planning, delivering and evaluating arts programs in schools. It provides tips, links, checklists and a step-by-step methodology, with great pics, quotes and ideas to develop your own amazing project... all this in one concise publication!
