The Arts and Education Reform: Where Is the Model for Teaching "the Arts"?

Rush, Jean C.

Arts Education Policy Review, v98 n3 p2-9 Jan-Feb 1997

Addresses the argument that the arts can empower education reform through two means: (1) teaching all children the arts and (2) teaching the arts as central to all learning. Conveys that by concentrating on aesthetic literacy and the nonuniversality of children's artistic development, arts educators will gain support for teaching the arts in elementary schools. (CMK)
