From Pedagogy to Practice

image of Arts Education in Ireland

Abstract

This book examines the distinctive nature of Arts Based Learning in Education (ABLE) in the context of a changing curriculum in Ireland. It draws on recent research on the state of the arts in Irish schools from early years, primary schools, post primary to higher education institutions.



The wide range of perspectives from pedagogy to practice draws on research in the visual arts, literature and the arts within teacher education. Teacher identity formation and students’ perceptions of learning within the writers in school’s scheme are some of the themes within the book. It also includes examples of collaborative, interdisciplinary practice between educational and cultural institutions. The book is situated within a rapidly changing curriculum policy framework and examines the relevance of arts-based learning against the backdrop of the drive for 21st century skills.
