Description
To develop an attitude of global interdependence in today’s classrooms, the study of art must reach beyond the boundaries of traditional learning. To be effective global citizens, students must understand world cultures. To comprehend world cultures, students must study the art of humankind and develop personal responses with positive social action through a language that they own. The workshop provides practical lessons and resources for high school English, Social Studies, and Humanities teachers, realistic student input, and startling images to help students transcend world cultures while building self-referential autonomy and deepening understandings of our commonalities through art.
