Edutopia – Arts Education issue
March 2, 2009“The word Edutopia represents an ideal educational landscape, where students are motivated to learn and teachers are energized by the excitement of teaching.” The George Lucas Foundation established Edutopia in 1991 and publishes a magazine, website, and video documentaries.
This months issue of Edutopia is featuring the arts and entitled: “Why Arts Education Must Be Saved”. If you have questions about the importance of arts education you don’t want to miss these thought provoking articles and
videos.
Take a snow day or some time on the weekend and check out Edutopia. You can learn about outstanding programs, research, gain ideas, see how technology is integrated in the teaching of arts education, and much more! You can even sign up for a Free copy of the magazine. One article is on using youtube to inspire your students. One of my favorite clips is this dance one is called “OK-Here It Goes Again”.

OKAY, Here we go again! What coordination, practice and fun! I think it should be published with the disclaimer “Do not try this at home without supervision!” Ha! Regardless, very creative.
