Interesting posts this week in regard to what is social justice mean to you as a future teacher and why is it important when planning your curriculum? How can adolescents benefit from a social justice curriculum as they are developing their identities?
Some things to consider:
What does social justice art education look like in your classroom? A unit to incorporate into your curriculum? A project where students explore an issue? How do you envision it?
How do you approach social justice topics in a middle school or high school classroom? (Do you need to talk about war and politics?)
How can you help students create meaningful and not cliched art work about these topics?
WHY teach social justice art education in your classroom?
When developing SJAE:
Encourage students to make connections:
Who/what?
Allow students to question everything:
Why?
Help students to translate ideas into artmaking:
How?
Six steps or process from the article, "An Inevitable Question: Exploring the Defining Features of Social Justice Art Education."
1.) Collaborative, Reciprocal, and Contextual Planning
2.) Student-Driven Projects
3.) Relevant Reflection
4.) Critical Questions
