GRADUATE CREDIT OPPORTUNITY
University of Northern Iowa
Embrace the unknown through artistic play, risk-taking and curiosity building to bring wonder and authentic art making experiences into your teaching practice. Learn how to support these behaviors that will help our students grow as resilient problem-solvers for the future through a series of workshops and presenters during our IN-PERSON AEI conference. We will explore these three components; full conference attendance and participation, a visual analysis, and summary of learning through written reflection.
More information will be available soon and available at the conference. |
PLAY : CULTIVATING CURIOSITY
In what ways can play develop curiosity in our students? How does investigation and risk taking build more inquisitive and imaginative minds? How can art educators model play and celebrate curiosity?
