This was a good one too. Thinking about teaching other subjects and disciplines within this visual arts framework was somewhat challenging but ultimately rewarding. Recommend to all teachers of humanities!
This is an assigned title for a conference I'm attending in September--the National Association of State Arts Agencies. My counterparts in the other 49 states will be assembling to discuss. This once-a-year bookclub thing might work for me!
There is a lot to digest in here, and I'll admit I didn't finish it all, but the research is a good place to start in identifying the actual measurable impact of participation in the arts.

Great resource for art teachers. I always keep it on hand.
