  • Diversity Education through Creativity

    Type:
    Document
    Description/Abstract:
    This paper explores the question of why it is important to apply culturally responsive teaching within the classroom, through creativity. Teaching diversity exposes students to a variety of cultural and social groups. This educational experience prepares students to become better citizens, within their communities. Through the creative process, students will examine topics which, both, encompass and promote diversity. Additionally, students will be able to construct their own independent, inclusive environment, through art making; this increase in diversity education relates not only to the race and ethnicity of our students, it also includes religion, economic status, gender identity, language background, and more. Adopting inclusion and awareness around multicultural education and taking a culturally responsive approach to teaching is a benefit to both students and instructors. Not only does creating a better multicultural awareness and inclusive environment help students with different backgrounds and needs succeed, but it encourages acceptance and helps prepare students to thrive in a diverse world. Keywords: cultural diversity, curriculum, teaching, art, social reconstructionism

    Description/Abstract:
    Empathy is an essential aspect for all facets of an educational system, specifically in art classrooms. Lack of empathy and collaborative skills can cause issues in relations and classroom management throughout the school year. Utilizing resources such as group lessons, community activities, and classroom reflections can allow for the kind of collaboration needed for students, teachers, and all those involved in a school system to succeed in their endeavors.

    Description/Abstract:
    The education field has historically underrepresented teachers based on gender, race, and sexual orientation. This has led to a severe lack of diversity in the field. By utilizing professional workshops, educators will have greater awareness of barriers that have caused such underrepresentation. Educators will be given tools to reflect on how this facet of the educational system can be improved.
