Teaching AIE in Higher Education    
Liz Hallmark
Teaching Artist

Executive Director, M.U.S.E., Inc.

Director, Rochester Wolf Trap

We will present a summary of the AIE teaching approaches we use at the institutions where we work, identify issues of concern related to research literature from the field, and invite a group discussion around broader, cooperative goals for the field.

This session will be a brief report from a group of educators who teach AIE in higher ed. We have been meeting monthly to reflect upon our teaching, and are particularly interested in rethinking the relationships between schools of education, schools of fine arts, and community cultural organizations. Participants will be invited to offer insights about observed themes, and hoped-for goals.           

Conference Strand: Education Reform

Educators: will understand the value of arts integration in the schools to create 21st-century learners.    

Artists: will learn the importance of partnerships with teachers and administrators.                

Cultural Organization Administrators: will learn the value of identifying partnerships (models) that are visible in the community to inform the work of students in higher ed.       

Education Administrators: will learn the capacity of visible programs to their districts, parents and potential arts funders.
