Veith’s goal was to create a book for art educators to use as a resource to initiate visual problems skills and incorporate the importance of critique. Inspired by art theorist Elliot Eisner, Veith (2005) believes writing a curricula that transforms consciousness opens the door to the imagination and is necessary to inhabit an environment
Engaging art students in the cultural and social aspects of artmaking is a powerful tool for personal student investment and connection. Historically, printmaking has been an avenue chosen by many artists to respond to social issues, and in preparation for the creation of the socially responsive relief printing lesson, titled “Society in Print”, I have turned to fellow art educators and artists who have experience in implementing such lessons and evidence of how students benefit from creating and

By drawing from the field of art and literature featuring the mirror and reflection, I will be looking at how the work of contemporary women artists and photographers challenged traditional attitudes and practices.

It’s also beneficial for young children in the long run because “throughout the centuries art has been practiced to articulate, refine and give expression to our visual sense” (Barnes, 2015). When using enquiry based learning in art, as teachers we must consider how we can teach art practically
