Reflective Practices in Arts Education 2006th Edition

From the reviews:

“Anyone who is involved in arts and education, research or is a practicing artist will probably have considered what it means to be a ‘reflective practitioner’. This book, aimed at people working in the arts as teachers, practitioners or researchers, invites deeper thought about reflective practice and its role within the current context of accountability in education. … Anyone who is involved with arts education would find something enlightening and informative in this book.” (Frederick A. Seddon, British Journal of Music Education, Vol. 2 (13), 2008)

This book is focused on the role of reflective practice, as a source and resource for teaching and learning, and research in the arts. It aims to investigate the concept of reflection and its application to a range of contemporary arts education contexts for both teachers and learners. For beginning and experienced teachers the book offers practical ideas and frameworks for thinking critically about their own teaching (and learning) as well as providing insights into work taking place in other arts disciplines. The growing field of arts partnerships and artist/educators is also well represented by case studies and descriptions of specific practical strategies.
