| Title |
Current Research in Arts Education: An Arts in Education Research Compendium |
| Abstract |
This research compendium is a project of the California Arts Council and
ARTS, Inc.
The Arts Council has felt for some time that a void existed in the
research literature for practitioners, artists and educators.
Many people cite isolated papers, articles, and reports about the value of
arts education, but no comprehensive annotated research compendium
existed.
The Arts Council has recently taken a significant leadership role in establishing
standards based community arts programs in our schools
statewide.
In 2000-2001 Governor Gray Davis allocated $10 million for three new
arts education program strands and to mount a full-scale evaluation of
these new endeavors. We believe that a successful arts program must be
based on available research and findings and should be standards based.
This compendium connects the research world with the real world of the
classroom. We hope you find it useful and fruitful in our joint efforts to
bring arts education experiences for all students into the foreground of
education. |
| Summary |
Many kinds of research are represented in this compendium—from research on
the arts and academic achievement and arts learning and the brain, to research on model
partnerships, policy initiatives, and workforce development. Research that was current
(since 1995), published and/or publicly available, and educationally significant was
more likely to appear here than research not meeting these criteria. Large-scale and
small-scale studies, using both quantitative and qualitative methods, are represented. In
some cases, research is included which was not written about arts education, but which
has implications for arts education policy and practice. |
