No. 226 | Interdisciplinary Approaches to Teaching Art
in High School
Pamela G. Taylor, B. Stephen Carpenter,
II, Christine Ballengee-Morris, Billie Sessions
The authors present works of art, artmaking skills,
and ways of knowing as catalysts for learning across
the traditional disciplinary boundaries in high school.
Both timely and enduring, this is the book that will
inspire and support the work of veteran, new, and pre-service
high school art teachers. The book includes issues,
theories, and practices related to high school curriculum,
advocacy, classroom management, assessment, cultural
understanding, idea-based instructional strategies,
team-teaching, technology, visual culture, and student-initiated
learning. The authors draw upon their own experiences
and those of other high school art teachers to create
a motivating and provocative text that challenges readers
to critically and continually reflect, collaborate,
read, and research their own interdisciplinary thinking,
teaching, and learning processes.

No. 243 | Interdisciplinary Art Education:
Building Bridges to Connect Disciplines and Cultures
Mary Stokrocki, Editor
This book is about interdisciplinary approaches to art education. The concept of interdisciplinary learning is one that should be scrutinized closely and research and practical applications are needed to inform the field about best practices. This book contains both theoretical concepts and practical suggestions for curriculum construction and assessment for interdisciplinary education that incorporate the visual arts as good and worthwhile, while at the same time, proposing ways in which art can be integrated holistically with other subjects. In addition, there are a variety of research methodologies found in the different chapters and a range of subjects, such as science, social studies, anthropology, and the performing arts, for which interdisciplinary concepts have been applied effectively and appear to be coherent, complete, and appropriate. All those who anticipate incorporating interdisciplinary practices into their school reform efforts should consider examples found in this book, about how to keep the integrity of art education theory and practice and at the same time construct new ways of reconfiguring the field of art education.
