""The second edition provides a theoretically-based model of transformative curriculum, connecting the dots of comprehensive curriculum. Teaching Tips to Thrive anchors the text with teacher voice. Essential and guiding questions help students “see” what, why and how” questions that focus on art content, aesthetic content, and conceptual attributes of making. Art education historical and developmental theory provide a base for scaffolding newer, age-appropriate approaches to thinking in and through the visual arts. Finally, the text is updated with in-depth presentations of diverse artists, inspiring art teachers to develop inclusive curriculum. For these reasons, we have come to refer to Teaching and Learning in Art Education as the “Blue Bible” in our pre-service program. Now, the second edition with it' updated Orange cover, is even more energetic, igniting the flames of art teachers' imaginations. It is a must-have companion to any comprehensive art education program."" Cathy Smilan, Professor, MAE Graduate Program Director, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, USA. ""This book is an invaluable resource for art educators seeking to foster transformative learning experiences for their students. By emphasizing student agency, critical thinking, and cultural awareness, it empowers both pre-service and in-service art educators to create engaging and meaningful learning environments that promote personal growth and positive change. Seamlessly integrating theory and practice, it offers a comprehensive framework to design a contemporary art curriculum—from student motivation, art inquiry, and hands-on projects, to assessment. Readers will also find inspiration in the rich and beautiful children’s artworks and exemplary projects showcased within."" Ryan Shin, Art and Applied Intercultural Arts Research Professor, School of Art, University of Arizona, USA. ""Teaching and Learning in Art Education: Cultivating Students’ Potential from Pre-K through High School is quite possibly the most important text available to guide visual arts instruction in the modern era. A full array of current topics of importance to art educators in pre-k through secondary art classrooms, art museums, and community arts centers are explored in depth in this new second edition. Remarkably innovative student-centered approaches and lavish resources are abundantly available. Content in this text is guided by the needs of classroom educators, and it blends established educational theory with sound practices that can be used to create powerful learning experiences in a broad array of educational settings. This text is cutting edge, and it is simply the finest and most ground-breaking instructional resource of its kind available today."" F. Robert Sabol, Professor of Visual and Performing Arts, Purdue University, USA.
