- Summary:
-
A renewed emphasis on arts education has come after a period of neglect during the 1980s and early 1990s when the arts were often slighted as school budgets grew tight and as educational priorities shifted to the basic academic subjects. Recently, results of several research studies have confirmed the advantages of student participation in arts education, according to the Arts Education Partnership. Today, there are many local and even some state initiatives that are true exemplars of the best that arts education can offer. But with the continuing focus on standards in the core academic subjects, some see little room for the arts. This policy update explains several issues to consider when advocating arts education: impact of the standards and assessments movement on arts education; alignment of standards and credit hour requirements; teacher training; equity; and partnerships. The policy update singles out two states, Maryland and Ohio, which are working to involve arts education in their efforts to bridge the gap between K-12 and higher education. It comments on two other states, Kentucky and Florida, which have created collaborative programs to engage arts resources in youth development. (BT)
