Integrating Critical and Contextual Studies in Art and Design

Possibilities for post-compulsory education

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Integrating Critical and Contextual Studies in Art and Design Education examines the relationship between two aspects of art education that appear at times inseparable and indistinguishable, and at others isolated and in conflict: Critical and Contextual Studies and studio practice. It scrutinizes the post-compulsory art and design curriculum, analysing the identity and practices of CCS, and explores how education professionals can integrate CCS for successful teaching, learning and practice.
