Arts-Based Reflection in Co-Curricular Spaces for Students with Disabilities
Barefield, Trisha
American Association for Adult and Continuing Education, Paper presented at the American Association for Adult and Continuing Education 2022 Conference (Milwaukee, WI, Oct 11-14, 2022)
This paper introduces a newly implemented arts-based space for reflection and identity development for students with disabilities (SWDs) in a disability services office in the American Southeast. This project aimed to help students make sense of their disability through creating a three-panel art project and an accompanying written description. While the primary aim was to create a space for reflection for SWDs, the secondary benefit is the use of their work for advocacy on campus. The project also brings art-based makerspaces into a cocurricular space for reflection, community building, and advocacy. After introducing the project, the paper will discuss the research findings and lessons for future research. [For the full proceedings, see ED631897.]
