Taylor & Francis How Dogmatic Beliefs Harm Creativity and
Book SynopsisIn a world plagued by enormous, complex problems requiring long-range vision and interdisciplinary insights, the need to attend to the influence of dogmatic thinking on the development of high ability and creative intelligence is pressing. This volume introduces the problem of dogmatism broadly, explores the nature and nuances of dogmatic thinking from various disciplinary perspectives, and applies the gleaned insights to what is known about creativity. Bringing together leading thinkers in the fields of creative studies and education, and in other relevant fields (history, sociology, psychology) whose work pertains to the various dimensions of dogmatism and the ethical problems it generates, this panoramic view represents interdisciplinary bridge building with the potential to generate new insights about the education of creative young minds.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Teaching American History Project
Book SynopsisThe premise of the Teaching American History (TAH) projectâa discretionary grant program funded under the U.S. Department of Educationâs Elementary and Secondary Education Actâ is that in order to teach history better, teachers need to know more history. Unique among professional development programs in emphasizing specific content to be taught over a particular pedagogical approach, TAH grants assist schools in implementing scientifically-based research methods for improving the quality of instruction, professional development, and teacher education in American history. Illustrating the diversity of these programs as they have been implemented in local education agencies throughout the nation, this collection of essays and research reports from TAH participants provides models for historians, teachers, teacher educators, and others interested in the teaching and learning of American History, and presents examples of lessons learned from a cross-section of TAH projects. Each Trade Review"…This book will be of great use to faculty and graduate students…it includes many interesting and enlightening anecdotes. Summing up: Recommended."--CHOICE"The editors have organized the book well….In the right hands, The Teaching American History Project might coax historians to nurture relationships with K-12 teachers. Collegial historians might collaborate with education faculty to design a historical methods course. College teachers who wish to expand their repertoire beyond the traditional lecture will find encouragement in this book."--Teaching History: A Journal of MethodsTable of ContentsForewordSam Wineburg, Stanford UniversityPreface Part I: Emerging Practices for HistoriansPart I Introduction Teachers as Historians: A Historian’s Experiences with TAH Projects Kelly A.

Taylor & Francis Art Teaching
Book SynopsisArt Teaching speaks to a new generation of art teachers in a changing society and fresh art world. Comprehensive and up-to-date, it presents fundamental theories, principles, creative approaches, and resources for art teaching in elementary through middle-school. Key sections focus on how children make art, why they make art, the unique qualities of childrenâs art, and how artistic development can be encouraged in school and at home. Important aspects of curriculum development, integration, evaluation, art room management, and professional development are covered. A wide range of art media with sample art activities is included. Taking the reader to the heart of the classroom, this practical guide describes the realities, challenges, and joys of teaching art, discusses the art room as a zone for creativity, and illustrates how to navigate in a school setting in order to create rich art experiences for students. Many textbooks provide information; this book also proviTrade Review"Art Teaching is one of the most transformative books about art education that I have read in many years. I wish all art teachers would read and discuss its contents. It will change the way teachers teach and students learn."— NAEA News"This clear text draws upon the authors’ own real experiences and offers insights and guidance for those seeking to teach art in elementary and middle schools." -- Jerome Hausman, Visiting Professor, Art Institute of Chicago"This is an absolutely essential text for future art educators as well as a must-read for current teachers who want to rekindle their creative teaching. At a time when student creativity in this country is on the decline, this book provides inspiration, tangible strategies, and- most importantly- the challenge to make the art classroom the indispensible creative center of every school." -- Cindy Meyers Foley, Director of Education, Columbus Museum of Art and Center for Creativity"Bravo to both authors who provide a refreshing and much needed approach to teaching art in a contemporary classroom. The authors encourage the reader to honor the wisdom of children while allowing them creative license in the art classroom. This book provides a comprehensive view into the world of teaching art and includes nearly everything that a teacher should think about, such as meeting the standards, classroom management, curriculum planning, advocacy, and so much more." -- Kathy Danko-McGhee, Director of Education, Toledo Museum of ArtTable of ContentsDedication Preface Acknowledgments 1.
