Turning Points: Responsive Pedagogies in Studio Art Education

11th January 2024

Turning Points invites readers to join in a dialogue about creating more responsive studio art pedagogies for all, following a global pandemic that forced art educators to do what many believed to be impossible: teach studio art online.

Amidst this sudden shift, long-simmering social and political challenges pushed to the forefront, such as racial injustice, access to educational resources, economic inequality, and environmental degradation. As these issues compounded, art educators and art students navigated a radical shift in priorities--rethinking the materials, spaces, and relationships that form the foundation of the discipline.

This collection of essays brings together international voices from across the field to share the lived experience of responsive teaching during the pandemic, and how we might rebuild a better educational ecosystem. Chapters address how new technologies, more inclusive spaces, and a heightened focus on relationships will reshape the studio art programs of the future.

Book Features:

Synthesises diverse cultural viewpoints from both leaders and practitioners in the field of art education.
Focuses on the impact of the pandemic and its aftermath on studio art teaching and learning.
Connects art education to sociocultural world issues, student wellness, mentorship, equity, and racial inequality.
Offers suggestions for how to move the field forward to meet the challenges of the 21st century.

Turning Points is published by Teachers College Press.
