Teaching Artist Handbook is based on the premise that teaching artists have the unique ability to engage students as fellow artists. In their schools and communities; teaching artists put high quality art-making at the center of their practice and open doors to powerful learning across disciplines.This book is a collection of essays; stories; lists; examples; dialogues; and ideas; all offered with the aim of helping artists create and implement effective teaching based on their own expertise and strengths. The Handbook addresses three core questions: ldquo;What will I teach?rdquo; ldquo;How will I teach it?rdquo; and ldquo;How will I know if my teaching is working?rdquo; It also recognizes that teaching is a dynamic process that requires critical reflection and thoughtful adjustment in order to foster a supportive artistic environment.Instead of offering rigid formulas; this book is centered on practicemdash;the actual doing and making of teaching artist work. Experience-based and full of heart; the Teaching Artist Handbook will encourage artists of every experience level to create an original and innovative practice that inspires students and the artist.

We found the element of reading it aloud very interesting. It brought a lot more life to the script which really needs no more life brought to it. Very interesting presentation of both sides of an age old question in Ireland. a quick read and a good read. Would highly recommend it.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
