Description
In the past decade political, economic and technological developments have had a major impact on art education and generated critical debate about the efficacy of existing art educational models. As a direct response, new paradigms are being established locally and globally including, online colleges; nomadic art schools; and more idiosyncratic short-term projects in and outside of established institutions. This module enables students to investigate and engage critically with these recent initiatives. Geographical context will also be examined in relation to the increasingly global and digitally networked possibilities for education, communication and knowledge production. The module requires students to devise a proposal for an educational model linked to a specific context that is relevant to their practice. As such it will allow them to formulate their developing philosophical and critical position as artist educators whilst engaging with current literature and debate. Students not enrolled on the MA Art Education, Culture and Practice programme MUST contact the module tutor in the first instance before selecting on Portico.
