This talk concerning The Importance of Arts in Education was delivered at Westminster College on March 23, 2009. My personal favorite part of the talk was revealing the percentage of GNP the arts represent---a real sabot for that certain kind of philistine social (and economic) conservative who wants to crush arts funding in schools. For that individual, here's an economic argument that almost sounds like an artifact of some capitalist Utopia. Considering we don't produce much in the U.S. anymore---the legacy of Bretton-Woods---at least we still export the arts.
Bright Sparks, South Mumbai’s premier activity centre for children, offers a unique range of classes for kids aged 3 to 14 years including chess, Spanish, spoken English, art, creative writing, science, keyboard and general knowledge. These classes provide children with essential skills and knowledge in a relaxed, fun and friendly after-school environment. For more details, call 09820346210
This presentation was created to give pre-service teachers more information about arts integration and why they should use it as a strategy in their classrooms.

The innovative program for MASTERCLASSES AND RESIDENCIES ART AND ART EDUCATION will explore the facilities and expertise available for art and art education for students.
• The keywords are art, creativity, education and civilization.
• The program will include space and individual guidance and supervising
during master classes, seminars and residencies. It is the intention to create
programs for art students to work on their thesis, their art production and also
to study special subjects in art education.
This Power Point presentation outlines the educational offerings of The Expedition School. This school is a proposed charter school serving grades K-8 in Hillsborough, NC.
Art Integrated Learning provides a unique opportunity to the children to explore various themes and concepts through visual and performing arts.
It means art becomes an integral part of the classroom teaching-learning process.
Learning through the arts can take place at all levels of schooling. Art integrated learning is experiential in nature and makes all children respond with their imagination and emotional strengths. The needs of children will vary with age, social contexts and ability.
For example, on the theme of Water we have the question: ‘Where does water come from?’ The children may use ‘black colour’ for dirty/sewage water and ‘blue’ to say it’s a river.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

“We are delighted to see how well he is doing (surprised us a bit). We have seen
development and growth as related to skills related to many things, gross
development as related to PE, which he loves and Art. He spends a lot of time
coloring now (sitting for an extended amount of time when he never would sit for
more than 10 minutes) and using lots of specific colors as related to what he is
coloring and coming home delighted and eager to paint and create. So I really
just wanted to check in and see what options we would have as we are planning
for next year.” -Mom of a TPAAK home schooler
