GED 675 - Educator as Artist: Personalized Learning, Teaching, and Engaging in the Artistic Process

Do you have a creative passion that is untapped or an artistic avenue you haven’t had the courage to explore yet?  Are you interested in discovering how personalized learning can help you structure your creative process and subsequently help when structuring the learning plans for your students? This immersive course is designed for educators from any discipline and grade level seeking an opportunity to explore how differentiated, individualized and personalized instruction can fuel student interest and engagement.  Together we will model how to build an interactive and supportive learning environment that personalizes investigation in visual art, dance, poetry, music, theater, creative writing, or multimedia. From individualized projects to student-led critiques, peer mentoring to developing e-portfolios, the focus will be on creating personalized learning strategies for the classroom while reigniting your own artistic passion in an area of your choice.  This course is designed for both those who wish to begin again with their artistic journey and those who have experience with art making.  Students who have previously taken GED 671 The Art of Bookmaking and/or GED 673 Science, Art and Bookmaking: Making Connections, are welcome in this class.

Credits: 3 cr.
