No. 283 | Thinking About Teaching Art? Answers for HS Students, Parents, and Counselors
Victoria Fergus and Carole Henry

The new resource is about what an art teaching career is like, what to look for in an art teacher preparation training program at the college level, and what qualifications to look for in the faculty. It also includes an overview of what to think about when you are looking for employment, and advice from students in art education programs that may also assist you in making some decisions. Finally, there are additional art career resources and websites that are worth exploring. "If we want to encourage our students to continue their education in the visual arts, we must also provide them with information on the nature of art teaching and where students can continue their study," said co-author Dr. Victoria Fergus. This booklet does just that. Thinking About Teaching Art? is an indispensable resource for every middle and high school art department, career center, guidance office, faculty lounge and school library.
