GED 678 - Aesthetic Perspectives on Culture and Education

In this course teachers witness the indispensable role arts play in developing imagination, critical voice, and community. By juxtaposing our stories with the stories of others, examining artistic icons in literature, museums, performances, and visual culture, and using our own creativity we develop a curriculum/community project that links aesthetic awareness with issues of social justice. We will adapt the words and images from others to first create our own interpretive narrative and then bring these stories back to the community.

Credits: 3 cr.
